At almost the opposite point on the Earth's surface, the "P" waves reappear. The shadow zone exists because the waves are refracted as they pass through the boundary between the mantle and the core and are diverted from their original paths.
Explanation: This is a reaction of oxidation of 
in the presence of acidified 
. Acidified is a strong oxidizing agent.
To balance out the 
on the reactant side, we write 
on the product side.
Balancing out the following reaction gives us:
Answer:
B
Explanation:
First of all it is important to know that a half filled orbital is particularly stable. In phosphorus all the electrons occur singly in the 3p sublevel minimizing inter electronic repulsion hence it is more difficult to remove an electron from this energetically stable arrangement. In sulphur, electrons are paired in one of the 3p orbitals thereby lowering the energy of that level due to instability caused by interelectronic repulsion between two electrons in the same orbital.
