7 0

Answer: Option (1) and (2) are correct.

Explanation:

Elements which contain same number of valence electrons tend to show similar chemical properties. This is because having same number of valence electrons will make the atoms to react in a similar way.

For example, Silicon is a group 14 element. So, it contains only 4 valence electrons. Similarly, germanium and lead are group 14 elements and it has 4 valence electrons.

Therefore, silicon, germanium, and lead will have similar chemical properties.

Whereas phosphorous is a group 15 element, and chlorine is a group 17 element.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options germanium and lead elements has physical and chemical properties most similar to silicon (Si).

In order from most to least similar:
1. Germanium
2. Lead
3. Phosphorus
4. Chlorine
The elements in the same column as the element you have are the most similar. The rows are not. For example, though chlorine and magnesium are in the same row, they have very different properties, whereas chlorine and fluorine more similar

A common radio wavelength observed coming from astronomical objects is 21 cm. What temperature is associated with this radiation
qaws [65]

Answer:

The temperature associated with this radiation is 0.014K.

Explanation:

If we assume that the astronomical object behaves as a black body, the relation between its <em>wavelength</em> and <em>temperature</em> is given by Wien's displacement law.

\lambda_{max}=\frac{b}{T}

where,

λmax is the wavelength at the peak of emission

b is Wien's displacement constant (2.89×10⁻³ m⋅K)

T is the absolute temperature

For a wavelength of 21 cm,

T=\frac{b}{\lambda _{max} } = \frac{2.89 \times 10^{-3} m.K  }{0.21m} =0.014K

If an automobile air bag has a volume of 11.5 l , what mass of nan3 (in
True [87]
Moles of NaN3 at STP  = volume of gas / 22.4 = 11.5/22.4 = 0.5mole. Massof NaN3 = moles of NaN3 x molecular weight = 0.5 x 65 = 32.5 grams.

Which statement is TRUE about oxidation-reduction reactions? a. Every oxidation must be accompanied by a reduction. b. There are
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Every oxidation must be accompanied by a reduction.

Explanation:

Oxidation and reduction are complementary processes. There can be no oxidation without reduction and vice versa. It is actually a given an take affair. A specie looses electrons which must be gained by another specie to complete the process. This explains why the selected option is the correct one.

The pH of a basic solution is 9.77. What is [OH⁻]?
uysha [10]

The  [OH⁻] of the solution is 5.37×10⁵ M.

<h3 /><h3>What is pOH?</h3>

This is the negative logarithm to base 10 of hydroxy ion [OH⁻] concentration.

To calculate the hydroxy ion [OH⁻] concentration we use the formula below.

Note:

  • pH+pOH = 14
  • pOH = 14-pH
  • pOH = 14-9.77
  • pOH = 4.27

Formula:

  • [OH⁻] = 1/10^{pOH}................. Equation 1

Given:

  • pOH = 4.27

Substitute the value into equation 1

  • [OH⁻] = 1/10^{4.27}
  • [OH⁻]  = 5.37×10⁵

Hence, The [OH⁻] of the solution is 5.37×10⁵ M.
