Dafna11 [192]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

option B= anion (-1)

Explanation:

The halogens are present in the P- block of periodic table. There are thirty five elements present in p-block. The halogens are present in group seventeen. Their are seven electrons are present in valance sheet. All halogens require one electron to complete the octet and form anion carry -1 charge.

Halogens include following elements:

Fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine.

The halogens mostly form single bond with the other elements by gaining one electron and -1 charge. These are most reactive non-metals.

Properties of some halogen elements:

Fluorine:

1. It is yellow in color.

2. It is flammable gas.

3. It is highly corrosive.

4. Fluorine has pungent smell.

5. It's reactions with all other elements are vigorous except neon, oxygen, krypton and helium.  

Chlorine:

1. It is greenish-yellow irritating gas.

2. Its melting point is 172.2 K.

3. Its boiling point is 238.6 K.

4. It is disinfectant and can kill the bacteria.

5. It is also used in manufacturing of paper, paints and textile industries.

Iodine:

1. It is present in solid form.

2. It is crystalline in nature.

3. It is very corrosive and has pungent odor.

4. It can not react with oxygen and nitrogen.

Predict, using Boyle’s Law, what will happen to a balloon that an ocean diver takes to a pressure of 202 kPa (normal atmospheric
kaheart [24]

Explanation:

Balloon that an ocean diver takes to a pressure of 202 k Pa will get reduced in size that is the volume of the balloon will get reduced. This is because pressure and volume of the gas are inversely related to each other.

According to Boyle's law: The pressure of the gas  is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by the gas at constant temperature(in Kelvins).

pressure\propto \frac{1}{volume} (At constant temperature)

The pressure beneath the sea is 202 kPa and the atmospheric pressure  is 101.3 kPa . This increase in pressure will result in decrease in volume occupied by the gas inside the balloon with decrease in size of a balloon. Hence, the size of the balloon will get reduced at 202 kPa (under sea).
