Answer:

(iv) (A) is false, but (R) is true.

Explanation:

It is not true that carbon has a strong tendency to either lose or gain electrons to attain noble gas configuration. Carbon is a member of group 14, it is the first member of the group and carbon is purely a non metal. Only metals metals can loose electrons to attain the noble gas configuration. Moreover, carbon does not participate in ionic bonding so it does not gain electrons to attain the noble gas configuration.

However, carbon participates in covalent bonding where it is covalently bonded to four other chemical species using its four outermost electrons. Carbon forms covalent bonds in which four electrons are shared with other chemical species.

hi anyone able to explain Why does the temperature of a substance remain the same when it is boiling using kinetic particles the
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The temperature remains

Explanation:

The temperature of a boiling substance remains the same because the extra energy is used in phase transition, that is to break the bonds between the molecules that hold them close together in the liquid state. With increased energy the molecules gain enough kinetic energy to overcome inter-molecular   forces and change state from liquid to gas
