Adhesive force to be able to stick to the side of glass
Snezhnost [94]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Water uses adhesive forces that allow it to stick to certain surfaces such as glass.

Explanation:

When the angle between vertical direction and the glass wall is small, surface tension is stronger and the component of gravity perpendicular to the glass wall is small. The result of this causes water to stick to the side of a glass.

Hope this helps!

Group 7A (17) elements can gain one electron to attain a noble gas electron configuration. In combination with metal atoms that
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

The two statements are all True for group 7 and 8 elements.

Explanation:

The Group 7 elements are known as the halogens. They are reactive non-metals and are always found in compounds with other elements. Chlorine, bromine and iodine are all halogens.

Chlorine, bromine and iodine are the three common Group 7 elements. Group 7 elements form salts when they react with metals. The term ‘halogen’ means 'salt former'.

In addition to the discription given to norble gases in the question which is true, norble gases;

  •     are inert gases located on the right of the periodic table.
  •     have a full-set of valence electrons, so they're stable, unreactive
  •     are colorless, odorless and tasteless.
  •     have low melting and low boiling points.
  •     can be found in small amounts in the Earth's crust and the Earth's atmosphere.

What elements can join wit other elements o form a covalent bond
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Non metals join to form covalent bond.

Explanation:

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.

Both atoms bonded through covalent bond.

In Cl₂ both chlorine atoms are bonded through the covalent bond.
