Elements in group 2 are called alkaline earth metals, the most similarity about the alkaline metals is which chemical properties they have.

<h2>Further Explanation </h2><h3>Periodic table  </h3>
  • Periodic table is a table that contains elements arranged in columns called groups and rows called periods.
  • Elements are arranged based on physical and chemical properties such that elements in the same group will have similar physical and chemical properties.  
<h3>Chemical families  </h3>
  • Based on the chemical properties elements belong to a family of elements sharing similar chemical or physical characteristics.
  • Examples of common chemical families include; alkali metals, alkaline-earth metals, halogens and noble gases among others.
<h3>Alkaline-earth metals  </h3>
  • These are elements that are found in group 2 of the periodic table. Alkaline-earth metals include, Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium, Strontium, Barium, and Radium.  

Properties  of Alkaline-earth metals

  • Alkaline earth metals have a valence of two since they form ions by losing two electrons from their outermost energy levels.
  • Unlike the Alkali metals, the earth metals have a smaller atom size and are not as reactive compared to alkali metals.
  • Alkaline-earth metals are highly metallic and are good conductors of electricity.  
  • They react with water and steam to form metal hydroxide and metal oxides respectively  
  • They react with air to form metal oxides  
  • Reactivity of alkaline metals depends on the ease of losing electrons, thus the reactivity increases down the group as the number of energy levels increases.
  • Additionally, alkaline-earth metals have low electronegativities and low electron affinities

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

The correct answers are -

1. b. pump the brake pedal rapidly

2. d. all of the above

3. c. your power brakes and power steering won't work very well

4. a. gasoline

5. b. power-assist failure

Explanation:

Brakes help in stopping the vehicle by causing resistance to wheels. IF brake failure it is advised to pump the breaks rapidly in order to cause resistance. Engine failure can be caused by various reasons such as a broken timing gear, no fuel, or getting extremely heated.

In the case of stalling of engine most common effects as power steering not working properly or power brakes not working well. The flooded engine means the engine has too much gasoline that it wont starts.

Spidermans nemesis electro delivers 4kj of electrical energy in half a second how much power does it draw from the mains?
Elodia [21]

Power delivered = (energy delivered) / (time to deliver the energy)

Power delivered = (4,000 J) / (0.5 sec)

Power delivered = 8,000 watts

I'm a little surprised to learn that Electro draws his power from the mains.  This is VERY good news for Spiderman !  It means that Spiderman can always avoid tangling with Electro ... all he has to do is stay farther away from Electro than the length of Electro's extension cord.

But OK.  Let's assume that Electro draws it all from the mains.  Then inevitably, there must be some loss in Electro's conversion process, between the outlet and his fingertips (or wherever he shoots his bolts from).

The efficiency of Electro's internal process is

<em>(power he shoots out) / (power he draws from the mains) </em>.

So, if he delivers energy toward his target at the rate of 8,000 watts, he must draw power from the mains at the rate of

<em>(8,000 watts) / (his internal efficiency) .  </em>
