Answer:

True

Explanation:

<em>The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which the vapour pressure of the liquid equals the pressure of the surrounding atmosphere.</em>

When a liquid is heated, the vapour pressure gradually increases till it matches the ambient pressure. Gas bubbles begin to form within the liquid, rise to the surface and then burst up to release gas. At this point, we say the liquid is boiling.

The lower the surrounding pressure, the lower the boiling point of a liquid and vice versa. Water boils at lower temperature in high altitudes because of lower pressure as compared to sea level.

Correct option: True.

The answer is true. A liquid boils when its vapor pressure equals the pressure of the atmosphere. At this point, vapor can now readily escape from the liquid phase because it has an equal pressure now with its surrounding which, basically, is in the vapor phase.

K forms the compound K2O , which is an ionic compound that is brittle. Identify another element, M , that is likely to form a br
meriva

The metal is sodium, Na.

<u>Explanation:</u>

K₂O is an ionic compound in which K is in the oxidation state of +1 and it belongs to group 1.

Group 1 elements also form oxides with the metals with the general formula M₂O and M being Na, K, Li and so on.

Metals Like sodium and Potassium are so brittle in nature and also their oxides.

So the other metal that form metal oxide which is brittle as well as ionic in nature, and so the metal oxide is Na₂O.

So the metal is sodium, Na.
