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.

Answer: Denver is named after James W. Denver, a governor of the Kansas Territory. It is nicknamed the Mile High City because its official elevation is exactly one mile (5280 feet or 1609.344 meters) above sea level.
Answer:
idk right now but i will let you know when i get the answer! Ok?
The mole fraction of a gaseous compound is equal to the ratio of the vapor pressure of the compound to the total pressure of the vessel. In this case, teh vapor pressure of tehe non-electrolyte is 760 - 745 = 15 mmHg. hence the mole fraction is 15 mm Hg / 760 mmHg equal to 0.0197
