Answer:

The vertical columns are called groups.

Explanation:

Periodic table consist of vertical columns and horizontal rows.

Vertical columns are called groups while horizontal rows are called periods.

There are seven periods and 18 groups in periodic table.

The elements in same group have similar properties and can react in a similar way.

The elements in same group have same number of valance electrons that's why their reactivity is same.

Consider the example of alkaline earth metals. They are present in group two and have same number of valance electrons (two valance electrons).

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

vichka [17]
The swimming pools pH is below 7, meaning it is slightly acidic. If you want to make the pH higher, you must add a base which by definition has a pH higher than 7.

What is the velocity of a 0.5-kg ball<br> that has a momentum of 3 kg.m/s?
maria [59]

Answer:

6m/s

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Mass = 0.5kg

Momentum = 3 kg.m/s

Velocity =.?

Momentum is simply the product of mass and velocity as shown by the equation below:

Momentum = Mass x Velocity

Velocity = Momentum /mass

Velocity = 3kg.m/s / 0.5kg

Velocity = 6m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the ball is 6m/s
