Answer:
Dmitri Mendeleev
used patterns to predict undiscovered
elements
Johann Wolfgang Dobereiner
created groups of three elements,
each based on similar properties
John Newlands
arranged elements according to their
atomic mass
Antoine Lavoisier,
divided elements into four categories
✓
The properties of elements are determined by their group/family. Usually, its the area they are located on the periodic table. The valence electrons also determine reactivity, etc.
(20/23) times 100 is 87%
now the answer asks for percentage ERROR
100-87 =13
so answer is C
electrostatic and ionic are definitely not the answer because they have high melting point
hydrogen bonds are too weak and not permanent.
so the answer is apolar as it is soluble in polar solvents (water)
