Elements within the same group of the periodic table behave similarly because they have the same number of ?

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 :)

Storm clouds being formed will most likely occur in this scenario.

<h3>What are Storm clouds?</h3>

These are formed during the process of convection in which heat and moisture is transported upward into the atmosphere.

We were told that the weather is warm and cold air will enter the region which means that it will replace the heat and moisture as they move upwards thereby resulting in the formation of storm clouds.

Answer:

Option B is correct. A nuclear alpha decay

Explanation:

Step 1

This equation is a nuclear reaction. So it can be an alpha decay or a beta decay

An α-particle is a helium nucleus. It contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons, for a mass number of 4.

During α-decay, an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle. It transforms (or decays) into an atom with an atomic number 2 less and a mass number 4 less.

Thus, radium-226 decays through α-particle emission to form radon-222 according to the equation that is showed.

A Beta decay occurs when, in a nucleus with too many protons or too many neutrons, one of the protons or neutrons is transformed into the other.

Option B is correct. A nuclear alpha decay

A chemist must prepare of 800.0 ml potassium hydroxide solution with a pH of 13.00 at 25°.
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

4.48 grams is the mass of potassium hydroxide that the chemist must weigh out in the second step.

Explanation:

The pH of the solution = 13.00

pH + pOH = 14

pOH = 14 - pH = 14 - 13.00 = 1.00

pOH=-\log[OH^-]

1.00=-\log[OH^-]

[OH^-]=10^{-1.00} M=0.100 M

KOH(aq)\rightarrow K^+(aq)+OH^-(aq)

[KOH]=[OH^-]=[K^+]=0.100 M

Molariy of the KOH = 0.100 M

Volume of the KOH solution = 800 mL= 0.800 L

1 mL = 0.001 L

Moles of KOH = n

Molarity=\frac{Moles}{Volume(L)}

0.100 M=\frac{n}{0.800 L}

n = 0.0800 mol

Mass of 0.0800 moles of KOH :

0.0800 mol × 56 g/mol = 4.48 g

4.48 grams is the mass of potassium hydroxide that the chemist must weigh out in the second step.
