Answer: antimony has more metallic character than arsenic.


Justification:


1) Both arsenic (As) and antimony (Sb) are in the same group, 15, of the periodic table (they both have 5 valence electrons).


2) There is a clear trend in the periodic table about the metallic character in a group: metallic character increases down the group.


The reason of this is that the ionization energies decrease as the electrons are further away from the nucleus (due to the shielding effect of more electrons in between the nucleus and the valence electrons).


3) Since antimomy is in the period (row) 5 and arsenic is in the period 4, you can conclude that antimony (being below arsenic) has more metallic character than arsenic.

<span>Arsenic has a more nonmetallic behavior than antimony because arsenic's atoms have fewer electron shells.</span>

Water drips from a shower head (the sprayer at the top of the shower) and falls onto the floor 2.3 m below. The droplets are fal
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

0.767m

Explanation:

We are given that the time interval between each droplet is equal.

We are also given that the fourth drop is just dripping from the shower when the first hits the floor.

If they fall at the same time interval and we know that the distance between the shower head and floor are the same, they must therefore fall at the same velocity.

The distance between each drop has to be the same given that they fall at equal time intervals.

Let this distance be x.

We can then partition the entire height of the system into three parts (as shown in the diagram).

Hence, we can say that:

x + x + x = 2.3m

3x = 2.3m

=> x = 2.3/3 = 0.767m

Therefore, at the time the first drop hits the floor, the third drop is only 0.767 m below the shower head.
