Element atomic number position
Ba 56 group 2, period 6
Ca 12 group 2, period 3
S 16 group 16, period 3
Si `14 group 14, period 3
Now, you need to know the properties of the different type of elements and the tendencies on the periodic table.
The metallic elements are, those placed on the left side of the periodic table, are the ones that release an electron more easily, so they will requiere less energy to give it up when forming chemical bonds.
The higher the metallic character the less the energy need to give up an electron.
The metallic character grows as the group number decreases (goes to the left) period increases (goes downward), so among the elements considered, Barium will require the least amount of energy to give un an electron when forming chemical bonds.
Two non-polar molecules are most likely to interact by
induced dipole-induced dipole interaction.
Non-polar substances do not have a permanently established charge distribution due to similar electron affinities of the atoms that are present. Moreover, due to the absence of a polar hydrogen, they cannot exhibit hydrogen bonding. They interact with one another by induced dipole-induced dipole interactions which arise from the molecules of the substances coming into close vicinity of one another.
The cohesive forces between liquid molecules are responsible for the phenomenon known as surface tension<span>. I think the correct answer is option A. H2O will have the highest surface tension due to the hydrogen bonds that are present. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

In reference to the diagram attached </h3><h3>
Answer:</h3>
one battery, two switches, and three light bulbs
Explanation:
- A circuit is an arrangement that shows the flow of electrons from a current source such as a battery.
- The diagram shows a circuit that contains one battery, two switches, and three light bulbs.
- The switches serves to close the circuit when necessary.
- The battery supplies current to the circuit.
- The light bulbs are used for lighting.
