The elements are listed in order of increasing the atomic number. Its the number that is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.
I think the correct answer would be the third option. The reason I2 has a higher melting point than F2 is because I2 possesses a more polarizable electron cloud. I2 contains more electrons than F2 which would result to a stronger intermolecular forces. Having stronger intermoleculer forces would mean more energy is needed to break the bonds so a higher melting point would be observed.

The equation relating velocity and wavelength is written below:
v = λf
where λ is the wavelength in m while f is frequency in 1/s.
Let's determine first the frequency from the speed of light:
c = distance/time, where c is the speed of light equal to 3×10⁸ m/s
3×10⁸ m/s = (300 mm)(1 m/1000 mm)/ time
time = 1×10⁻⁹ seconds
Since f = 1/t,
f = 1/1×10⁻⁹ seconds = 10⁹ s⁻¹
Thus,
v = (795×10⁻⁹ m)(10⁹ s⁻¹)
v = 795 m/s
In an average mass, each entry has equal weight. In a weighted average, we multiply each entry by a number representing its relative importance.
Assume that your class consists of 15 girls and 5 boys. Each girl has a mass of 54 kg, and each boy has a mass of 62 kg.
<em>Average mass</em> = (girl + boy)/2 = (54 kg + 62 kg)/2 = <em>58 kg</em>
<em>Weighted average (Method 1)
</em>
Use the <em>numbers of each</em> gender (15 girls + 5 boys)
,
Weighted average = (15×54 kg + 5×62 kg)/20 = (810 kg + 310 kg)/20
= 1120 kg/20 = <em>56 kg</em>.
If you put all the students on one giant balance, their total mass would be
1120 kg and the average mass of a student would be <em>56 kg.
</em>
<em>Weighted average (Method 2)
</em>
Use the <em>relative percentages</em> of each gender (75 % girls and 25 % boys).
Weighted average = 0.75×54 kg + 0.25×62 kg = 40.5 kg + 15.5 kg = <em>56 kg</em>
Each girl contributes 40.5 kg and each boy contributes 15.5 kg to the <em>weighted average</em> mass of a student.
