Intermolecular forces are the forces of attraction or repulsion which act between neighboring particles (atoms, molecules, or ions ). These forces are weak compared to the intramolecular forces, such as the covalent or ionic bonds between atoms in a molecule.
The symbol of the period five element that is a member of the pnicitides family are antimony.
Explanation:
Pnictogen family
- In periodic table, column 15 elements are Pnitogen family.
- The pnictogen elements are Nitrogen-N, arsenic-As, phosphorus-P, bismuth-Bi, antimony-Sb, ununpentium-Uup.
- There are five valence electrons each member of pnictogen family. In group 15 double bonds and triple bonds are formed due to these valence electrons.
- Pnictides, binary compounds of group 15.
Antimony
- Antimony is the element found in period 5 and block p.
- A chemical element, Antimony (Sb) from Latin word stibium and 51 is its atomic number. It is in solid state.
- In ancient times, antimony compounds are used as cosmetic and medicine.
- Appeared as semi metal.
- Electronic configurations of Sb is [Kr] 4d105s25p3.
I'm having trouble with this one. At the very least, they both purify water. If I'm not mistaken, distillation is part of the process of purifying water.
Really sorry, I hope I helped at least a little! If you have any other questions I might be able to answer better, let me know..
True some explanations are not always based on empirical evidence
