Answer:
Environment refers to everything that surrounds an individual and interacts between them. The factors that control the environment can be biotic and abiotic.
Humans have greatly affected the environment. Some of the ways in which the environment is affected by humans are as follows-
(1) Humans have constructed industries and factories that have released a huge amount of toxic gases into the atmosphere.
(2) These harmful gases have increased the earth's global temperature. As a result of which the global warming effect has increased.
(3) The waste materials eliminated from these industries mix with the rivers and streams and pollute the water. It degrades water quality.
(4) The fossil fuels are exhausted at a very high rate.
(5) The spilling of the oils in the oceans has affected the marine species drastically.
(6) Due to the extensive mining at different places, soil fertility has decreased considerably.
(7) Cutting down trees for settlement purposes and other infrastructures.

Answer:
A - NaCl is a product
D - Cl2 is a gas
Explanation:
Based on the chemical reaction;
2Na(s) + Cl2(g) → 2NaCl2
- Sodium metal reacts with chlorine gas to form sodium chloride. Sodium is in solid state, chlorine is in gaseous state and Sodium chloride is in solid state.
- In the chemical reaction, sodium and chlorine are reactants while sodium chloride is the product.
- Additionally the chemical reaction above is balanced so as to obey the law of conservation of mass.
Answer: option <span>A) increases from bottom to top within the group.
Explanation:
</span>It is a known trend that the metallic character of the elements increase from let to right and from top to bottom.
The greater the metallic character the greater the reactivity of the metal.
So, the elements of the columns 1 and 2 are the most reactive metals and among them the elements at the bottom are yet more reactive.
<span>The higher reactivity of the metals that are lower in the periodic table is attributed to the greater total number of electrons.
The greater the total number of electrons the more reactive the metals
as their outermost electrons (the valence electrons which are those that react) are located further from the nucleus and therefore they are held less
strongly, which makes them react more easily.</span>
