For an object to conduct electricity it should have free or delocalised electrons that are free to pass the charge and hence take part in conducting electricity.
From the given choices
Chlorine is a halogen existing as a diatomic gas. Iodine too is a halogen and 2 Iodine atoms held together by covalent bond. Cl - Cl bonds and I-I bonds are covalent bonds. the outer electrons of Cl and I take part in covalent bonds therefore they are fixed and not free to move about. therefore no free electrons to conduct electricity.
Sulfur is a solid that too is held together by covalent bonds so it does not have free electrons to conduct electricity.
Silver is a metal and a general property of metals are their ability to conduct electricity.
metal structure are metal ions tightly packed together. when the metal atoms are tightly packed their valence electrons are removed and delocalised. Positively charged metal ions are embedded in a sea of delocalised electrons.
therefore there are delocalised electrons that can conduct electricity
answer is 3) silver
Answer:
Because the cohesive forces inside the droplets are stronger than the adhesive forces between both the drops and the wax, water does not penetrate waxed surfaces. Because the adhesive forces between the liquid and the glass are stronger than the cohesive forces inside the water, water wets glass and spreads out across it.

Answer:
a H2CO3 b HCO3- and c H+ and HCO3-
Explanation:
As the pKa value of phenol is more than that of carbonic acid(H2CO3), the carbonic acid will have high Ka value than that of phenol.
The acid that contain high Ka value act as stong acid.From that point of view H2CO3 is a strong acid than phenol as the Ka value of carbonic acid is greater than that of phenol.
The conjugate base of H2CO3 is bicarbonate ion(HCO3-)
c The species that predorminates at equilibrium are H+ and HCO3-
Ozone depleting chemicals are most likely belong to <u>halogen </u>group on the periodic table.
<h3>Ozone depleting chemicals are most likely to belong to which group on the periodic table?</h3>
Ozone depleting chemicals are the halogen group on the periodic table. Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), halons, methyl bromide, carbon tetrachloride, hydrobromo-fluorocarbons and methyl chloroform. Fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, astatine and tennessine are the elements of halogen group elements. These elements greatly affected the ozone layer.
So we can conclude that Ozone depleting chemicals are most likely belong to halogen group on the periodic table.

Answer:
The order is:
F >Be >Li >Ba
Explanation:
Electrons are held in atoms by their attraction to the nucleus which means that to remove an electron from the atom energy is needed.
The ionization energy is the minimum energy necessary to remove an electron from an atom in the gas phase and ground state, the electron removed being the outermost, that is, the furthest from the nucleus. The further away the electron is from the nucleus, the easier it is to remove it, that is, the less energy is needed.
By increasing the atomic number of the elements of the same group, the nuclear attraction on the outermost electron decreases, since the atomic radius increases. Then the ionization energy decreases. In other words, in a group it decreases from top to bottom because the size of the atom increases and it is easier to remove an external electron.
By increasing the atomic number of the elements of the same period, the nuclear attraction on the outermost electron increases, since the atomic radius decreases. Therefore, in a period, as the atomic number increases, the ionization energy increases. In summary, in a period it increases from left to right as the effective nuclear charge increases and it increases thanks to the decrease in the size of the atom.
Taking these considerations into account, the order is:
<u><em>F >Be >Li >Ba</em></u>
