What do elements in the same family generally have similar properties?

Chemistry
1 answer:
DiKsa [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Elements in the same family belong to the same group.

A group on the periodic table is the vertical arrangement of elements. Elements in the same group have the same amount of valence electrons in their outermost shell. We know that the valency of an element dictates its chemical properties. In group I for example, elements here have just a valence electron, this makes group I elements readily lose their electrons to achieve a noble configuration.

Physical properties to an extent also varies and progresses down the group steadily.

This is why elements in the same family are said to generally have similar properties

Radium decays to form radon. Which equation correctly describes this decay?<br><br> its D
netineya [11]

Answer:

The equation that correctly describes the decay is :

\frac{226}{88}Ra -----> \frac{222}{86}Rn + \frac{4}{2}He

Explanation:

When the solid radium start decaying in order to form the radon gas, it starts losing two protons with one neutron. The two neutron as well as one proton together forms an alpha particle, hence a type of radiation is formed. Also we know that radon itself is radioactive as it also leads to the decay, after that it loses an alpha particle and also form an element called as polonium. Radium being the most stable form of isotope, radium 226, also holds a half life of 1600 years. It will decay into radon 222 through the alpha decay or can also lead 212 by ejecting a carbon 14 nucleus.

What is the only force that acts between particles of helium gas?
Natalka [10]

Answer: The only force that acts between particles of helium gas is Vanderwaal forces.

Explanation:

When molecules are uncharged in nature but still combined together due to the dipole moment of elements then this force holding the molecules together is known as Vanderwaal forces.

This force is weak in nature.

For example, particles of helium gas has Vanderwaal force between its atoms.

Thus, we can conclude that the only force that acts between particles of helium gas is Vanderwaal forces.
