Because the alkali metals are the group 1 metals, they have only 1 valence electron that they want to lose, and the halogens are the group 17 nonmetals, they want to gain 1 valence electron to become stable.
Answer:
the HOMO-LUMO energy difference in ethylene is greater than that of cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene
Explanation:
The λmax is the wavelength of maximum absorption. We could use it to calculate the HOMO-LUMO energy difference as follows:
For ethylene
E= hc/λ= 6.63×10^-34×3×10^8/170×10^-9= 1.17×10^-18J
For cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene
E= hc/λ=6.63×10^-34×3×10^8/230×10^-9=8.6×10^-19J
Therefore, the HOMO-LUMO energy difference in ethylene is greater than that of cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene
Answer : The ages of the brother and sister are, 10 and 16 years respectively.
Solution :
Let the age of brother be 'x' and the age of sister be 'y'
There are two equations formed which are,
x + y = 26 ..........(1)
3y - 4x = 8 ..........(2)
First we have to multiple equation (1) by 4 and then added equation (1) and (2), we get the value of 'y'.

Now put the value of 'y' in equation (2), we get the value of 'x'
3(16) - 4x = 8
4x = 40
x = 10
The age of brother = x = 10 years
The age of sister = y = 16 years
Therefore, the ages of the brother and sister are, 10 and 16 years respectively.
The given balanced reaction is,

The stoichiometric coefficients of each element or compound represents the number of moles of that element or compound required for the complete reaction to take place.
The mole ratios of different products and reactants will be:



So the mole ratio comparing iron (Fe) and oxygen gas (
) is
4 : 3
