Answer:

only columns

Explanation:

All atoms of elements present in same group or column having same number of valance electrons. Thus the elements in same group having same properties.

For example:

Consider the second group. It consist of alkaline earth metals. There are six elements in second group. Beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium.

All have two valance electrons.

Electronic configuration of Beryllium:

Be = [He] 2s²

Electronic configuration of magnesium.

Mg = [Ne] 3s²

Electronic configuration of calcium.

Ca = [Ar] 4s²

Electronic configuration of strontium.

Sr = [Kr] 5s²

Electronic configuration of barium.

Ba = [Xe] 6s²

Electronic configuration of radium.

Ra = [ Rn] 7s²

They are present in group two and have same number of valance electrons (two valance electrons) and show similar reactivity.

They react with oxygen and form oxide.

2Ba + O₂ → 2BaO

2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO

2Ca + O₂ → 2CaO

this oxide form hydroxide when react with water,

BaO + H₂O → Ba(OH)₂

MgO + H₂O → Mg(OH)₂

CaO + H₂O → Ca(OH)₂

With sulfur,

Mg + S → MgS

Ca + S → CaS

Ba + S → BaS

vredina [299]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

$H_2CO3+H_2O\rightleftharpoons HCO_3^{-} + H_3O^+$

On increasing the pH of the blood the hydronium ions concentration will decrease which will result in decrease in concentration of hydronium ions at the equilibrium state of hydrogen carbonate.

Le-Chatelier's principle:

This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

According to Le-Chatelier's principle , on decrease in a concentration of the product the equilibrium moves in forward correction to re-establish itself.

So, on increasing the pH, the hydronium ions concentration will decrease which results in disassociation of more hydrogen carbonate to maintain the pH of the blood.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.
