<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option A.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an atom to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself whenever a bond is formed.
This property increases as we move from left to right across a period because the number of charge on the nucleus gets increased and electrons are attracted more towards the nucleus.
This property decreases as we move from top to bottom in a group because the electrons get add up in the new shells which make them further away from the nucleus.
Thus, the correct answer is Option A.
Answer:
compounds are elements include an element and a compound
Explanation:
elements in the decomposition reaction is the substance that cannot be separated into simpler substances. Compounds, technically act as a reactant in the decomposition reaction, but since the reaction breakdown one substance into two or more, sometimes it exists in the product
Explanation:
A mixture in which there is uniform distribution of solute particles into the solvent is known as a homogeneous mixture.
For example, sugar dissolved in water is a homogeneous mixture.
On the other hand, a mixture in which there is uneven distribution of solute particles into the solvent is known as a heterogeneous mixture.
For example, sand present in water is a heterogeneous mixture.
Comment on given situations will be as follows.
(a) Air in a closed bottle - It is a homogeneous mixture because there will be even distribution of other gases that are present in air.
(b) Air over New York City - It is a heterogeneous mixture because there will be presence of some dust particles, fog or smoke into the air. Distribution of all these particles will be uneven. This will make air over New York City heterogeneous in nature.
