Answer:
B. P (Phosphorus)
Explanation:
The element is be phosphorus.
This is true because phosphorus has a larger atomic radius than carbon. If you move than the group, elements gain additional electron shell. That additional electron shell keeps electrons far from the nucleus of the atom. This actually increases the atomic radius. Also, phosphorus is more electronegative than aluminum because phosphorus itself is a non-metal and non-metals are generally electronegative while aluminum is a metal and electropositive.
Phosphorus has a lower ionization energy than argon because the ionization energy across the period (i.e from left to right) increases and across period 3, you will find phosphorus first before argon in the periodic table.
Answer:
(a): 2ZnO(s) -----------> 2Zn(s) + O2(g)
2C(s) + O2(g) ---------> 2CO(g)
(b): ZnO(s) + C(s) ---------> Zn(s) + CO(g)
Answer:Option (3) less than the sum of its components' masses
Explanation:
A baseline for experimental investigation is provided by an hypothesis. This is a must before conducting experiments. Also, it is the hypothesis that is being proved by doing the experiments. So, hypothesis is very important in research studies. Hope this answers the question.
C.Work was required by an outside force.
