The answer is C because of the ionization energy trend
The reason why it is not considered this is because the material was made in a lab, not through nature, which is what is required to be considered as a true mineral.
i guess its e) Mn (VII)
if it was wrong pls let me knw
The arrangement of particles in a gas is random. they have no orderly arrangement and are free to move around while the particles in solid are in an orderly and rigid arrangement and cannot move about. particles in liquid are also arranged orderly but are not rigid
A molecule that can h-bond will not always necessarily and does not have guarantee to have a higher boiling point than one than cannot have h-bond.
we can take an example of Pentan-2-one that cannot h-bond but instead of this it has a high boiling point that is 102.3 °C, while propan-1-ol can h-bond but it has a boiling point of 97.2°C, that is lower than the boiling point of Pentan-2-one.
