As we move down the group, the metallic bond becomes more stable and the formation of forming covalent bond decreases down the group due to the large size of elements.
Covalent and metallic bonding leads to higher melting points. Due to a decrease in attractive forces from carbon to lead there is a drop in melting point.
Carbon forms large covalent molecules than silicon and hence has a higher melting point than silicon.
Similarly, Ge also forms a large number of covalent bonds and has a smaller size as compared to that of Sn. Hence melting point decreases from Ge to Sn.
The order will be C>Si>Ge>Pb>Sn.

When ketone is reacted with phosphorous pentachloride, chlorination takes place at the carbonyl carbon with substitution of the oxygen atom to give a geminal dichloride (with 2 Cl atoms on same carbon) according to the following equation:
so we can say that acetone is converted into 2,2-dichloropropane by action of PCl₅

<span> purity of the substance is usually the main error (for example: water with impurities will have m.p. less than 273K or 0 degree celcius while it's b.p. will be greater than 373K or 100 degree celcius). </span>
<span>-> air/ room temperature (it takes longer to cook in mountains and shorter at beaches) </span>
<span>-> parallax error (error by determining the meniscus of the thermometer) </span>

That's a really hard on I thing that you should just tell your teacher that it was hard for you and I'm sure she or he will understand
