Answer: The correct option is The properties of a noble gas.
Explanation: There are 7 periods in the periodic table.
The last element of each period are Helium (He), Neon (Ne), Argon (Ar), Krypton (Kr), Xenon (Xe), Radon (Rn) and Ununoctium (Uuo).
All these elements have stable electronic configuration and are not reactive in nature. Hence, they are considered as noble gases.
Therefore, the last element of each period always have the properties of a noble gas.
The volume of water in the graduated cylinder is 5.7 mL, volume increases to the value 17.3 mL when a 14.24 g of rock is dropped into it.
The increase in volume is due to the added volume of rock. Thus, volume of rock can be calculated by subtracting initial volume from the final volume as follows:
On putting the values,
For correct significant figures, volume should be in 2 significant figures.
Therefore, volume of rock will be 12 mL.
