I think it’s A it’s showing the par-ten to those certain things how it works
Carbonate compounds have a negative valency (because they contain oxygen), so NaCO3 has a negative valency (it’s a negatively-charged ion) which makes it basic or alkaline.
The periodic table of the elements are describe the electronic configuration of the elements on which the properties of the elements depends. Among the given groups only metal, non-metal and semi-metal group are the part of periodic table. The metallic property depends upon the binding energy of the electrons with the nucleus. Thus the elements which have the valence electrons more near to the nucleus that is s-block elements are more metallic in nature. On the other hand the elements which have the valence electrons far from the nucleus are more non-metallic in nature like p-block elements. However the binding energy or the attraction of the outermost electrons to the nucleus depends not only its valence electrons position but also some other factors like shielding effect, effective nuclear charge etc.
The elements which are in between the metals and non-metals can be classified as semi-metals.
Although the conductivity of a material is an inherent property of the metals but sometime the nonmetals or semi-metals are also behave like a conductor due to presence of the other elements, thus it cannot be a p[property of the periodic table. Similarly acidity, flammable gases are not part of the periodic table.
A combustion reaction usually happens when a hydrocarbon is reacted with an oxygen molecule producing water and carbon dioxide. It is an exothermic reaction which means it releases heat as the process proceeds. It is a spontaneous process where it readily happens without any supply of energy. The total kinetic energy of the reactants is greater than the activation energy that is why heat is being released. Acetic acid is a carboxylic acid and is classified as a hydrocarbon so when reacted with oxygen, it would yield carbon dioxide and water. The balanced chemical reaction would be as follows
CH3COOH + 2 O2 = 2 CO2 +2 H2O
