actually the answer is B because Chlorine, sulfur, and silicon. Chlorine is a halogen and gas. Sulfur forms an ion with a -2 charge in ionic bonds. Silicon is a well-known metalloid.
The free electrons in metals can move through the metal, all while receiving and losing electrons, allowing metals to conduct electricity. Example: copper is a great conductor of electric current.
Which of the following are characteristics of noble gases?
✅
- An inert gas is one that does not undergo chemical reactions. The noble gases have complete outer shells, so they have no tendency to lose, gain, or share electrons. This is why they are said to be inert.
✅
- Noble gases are the least reactive of all elements. This is because they already have the desired eight total 's' and 'p' electrons in their outermost (highest) energy level.
The conclusion is, medium Q is most likely a solid because solids have the highest density and sound waves travel fastest in high density media.
<h3>
Effect of density on speed of sound</h3>
Sound wave is mechanical wave that requires material medium for its propagation.
A high dense medium, is a medium with closely packed molecules. Since sound wave requires material medium for its propagation, it will travel faster in a high dense medium than a less dense medium.
Thus, the speed of sound increases as the density of the medium increases.
<h3>Speed of sound in the different media</h3>
The conclusion that can be made from the speed of sound in the different media is "Medium Q is most likely a solid because solids have the highest density and sound waves travel fastest in high density media".
