The elements in each group have the same number of electrons in the outer orbital. Or also called valence electrons. Khan academy has a great video online explaining why this happens. (It only happens for main group elements). Here is a link (sorry you can’t click it in Brainly) https://www.khanacademy.org/science/chemistry/periodic-table/copy-of-periodic-table-of-elements/v/periodic-table-valence-electrons. Feel free to message me for a better explanation, I would explain now but I’m not sure how much you know about this. If you know how to write an electron configuration you can see how all the electron configurations for the same group (not the transitional metals only the main groups) have the same number of valence electrons. I hope that helped, sorry I was vague about the explanation :)

Explanation:

area of rectangle=l×b

15=5×b
b=3cm

2.area of rectangle=l×b

28=l×4
l=7cm

3. perimeter of square=4×L

24=4×L
L=6cm

4. perimeter of rectangle=2(L+b)

14=2(4+b)
14=8+2b
2b=6
b=3cm

hope it helps.

PLEASE HELP!! Tell me the IUPAC name of the following compounds:

leonid [27]

The IUPAC rules are

a) Find out the longest chain of carbon in the given organic compound

b) We will name the longest chain.

c) We will identify the main functional group and will assign a suffix to the compound.

d) We will number the carbons in the longest chain selected so that the attached groups attain lowest numeral as substituent

e) We will name the side groups or chains.
