A. metalloids
B. oxygen (O)
C. non-metals
D. hydrogen (H)
The answer is D, Hydrogen (H).
Answer:
Universe.
Explanation:
Biosphere is just a planet. Solar system contains planets and star. Galaxy holds multiple solar systems only. Universe hold everything, biospheres, solar systems, and galaxies. I hope this helps :D
Answer:
The pH does not decrease drastically because the NaOH reacts with the <u>D) Benzoic acid</u> present in the buffer solution.
Explanation:
The hydroxide ions will react with acidic part of the solutions, it means the benzoic acid, so it will form the conjugate base, the benzoate ion.
Answer:
B) They will react because X and Y can share two pairs of electrons to become stable
Explanation:
The electron configurations of two elements x and y are given :
X: 1s2 2s2 2p6
Y: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6
The statement that is true for both the elements is that, they both will react as they both can share two pairs of electrons to become stable.
To become stable the outermost shell or p orbital should have 8 electrons, so element X can gain 2 atoms to become stable.
Element Y can also react as it can also share two atoms to fulfill its 3p orbital and will stable.
Hence, the correct option is "B".
