Let's eliminate these one by one.
The first pair would not be the same, as X would most likely be in group IA, and Y would be in group VIIA, because of their tendency to gain and lose electrons.
The second pair would also violate the same rule, but X would most likely be in group IIA, and Y would most likely be in group VIA.
The third pair would not be the same, as X is most likely in group VIIA, and since Y has eight valence electrons, it is most likely a noble gas.
The final pair has X with atomic number 15, making it phosphorous. Phosphorous wants to gain 3 electrons to have a full octet of 8 outer "valence" electrons, and Y would also like to gain 3 electrons. This means it is possible that the final pair would be in the same group.
Answer:
Yes.
The nuclear equation {226/88 Ra → 222/26 Rn + 4/2 He} is balanced. As we know that an alpha particle is identical to a helium atom. This implies that if an alpha particle is eliminated from an atom's nucleus, an atomic number of 2 and a mass number of 4 is lost.
Therefore, the equation will be reduced to:
226 - 4 = 222
88 - 2 = 86
Hence, the equation is balanced.
Explanation:
Our bone marrow continuously makes new red and white blood cells. The lymphatic system consists of the bone marrow, the spleen, the thymus (in young people), and lymph nodes.
Oceanic crust is the relatively thin part of the earths crust which underlies the ocean basins. it is geologically young compared with the continental crust and consists of basaltic rock overlain by sediments
B is the answer..!
Disturbance is in a circular motion
