Explanation:

Elements that are present in same group contains same number of valence electrons.

Therefore, they tend to show similar chemical properties.

For example, both nitrogen and phosphorus are group 15 elements. Hence, they have 5 valence electrons and they tend to show similar chemical properties.

Since, C, N, P, O and S are all non-metals but Al is a metal.

Therefore, properties of aluminium will be completely different from that of nitrogen or other non-metals.

Hence, we can conclude that element P has properties that are most similar to those of nitrogen and element Al has properties that are the least similar to nitrogen.

Most similar would be phosphorus, because they have the same number of electrons in their outer orbitals, thus they create the same ions, and react with elements in a similar fashion.
Different would probably be aluminum. Aluminum is a metal while nitrogen is a non-metal, as seen by the colors above. Also, aluminum creates a positive ion (losses electrons to become stable) while nitrogen creates a negative ion (gains electrons to become stable)
Hope this helps!!

How many oxygen is produced in Laboratory?​
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Explanation:

Oxygen is one of the most abundant elements on this planet. Our atmosphere is 21% free elemental oxygen. Oxygen is also extensively combined in compounds in the earths crust, such as water (89%) and in mineral oxides. Even the human body is 65% oxygen by mass.

Free elemental oxygen occurs naturally as a gas in the form of diatomic molecules,  O2  (g). Oxygen exhibits many unique physical and chemical properties. For example, oxygen is a colorless and odorless gas, with a density greater than that of air, and a very low solubility in water. In fact, the latter two properties greatly facilitate the collection of oxygen in this lab. Among the unique chemical properties of oxygen are its ability to support respiration in plants and animals, and its ability to support combustion.

In this lab, oxygen will be generated as a product of the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. A catalyst is used to speed up the rate of the decomposition reaction, which would otherwise be too slow to use as a source of oxygen. The catalyst does not get consumed by the reaction, and can be collected for re-use once the reaction is complete. The particular catalyst used in this lab is manganese(IV) oxide.

In the sodium-potassium pump, sodium ion release causes two K ions to be released into the cell. __________________ True False
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

false

Explanation:

As we know that in sodium-potassium pump .          

sodium potassium move 3Na+ outside the cells          

and  moving 2k+ inside the cells                        

so that we can say that given statement is false    

Answer FALSE

The primitive atmosphere of Earth may have favored the abiotic synthesis of organic molecules because it __________.
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer and Explanation:

The primitive atmosphere of Earth may have favored the abiotic synthesis of organic molecules because it **had close to no oxygen, hence, it was powerfully reducing. It had pure energy sources too in form of ultraviolet rays from the sun (it was extremely hot! Too hot for water in liquid form to exist in fact!), outgassing from the numerous volcanoes and lightning**.

Abiotic synthesis means a formation reaction where the reactants are charged to become products, almost all on their own, with no catalyst especially.

So, these factors would have helped the organic molecules to form as most of what is needed to overcome the energy barrier and become products.
