Answer:

The correct option is: <u>A. Se, Sb, Sn  </u>            

Explanation:

Malleability is the physical property of a chemical element, that allows it to change its shape or form thin sheets, when pressure or stress is applied.

It is a characteristic property of a metal. Mettaloids and non-metals are not malleable in nature, as they are brittle.

Since, Selenium (Se) is a non-metal, it is <u>non-malleable</u>.

Antimony (Sb) is a metalloid, it is <u>non-malleable.</u>

Tin (Sn) is a metal, it is <u>malleable.</u>

Therefore, <u>the increasing order of malleability </u>is: <u>A. Se, Sb, Sn</u><u>.</u>

The answer would be (B) Sb, Sn, Se.

The periodic table may look like a confusing checkerboard of elements, but they are categorized in more ways than you may know.

For malleability, we look for metals. Metals/metallic elements have characteristics like electrical conductivity, <u>malleability</u>, ductility, and other physical characteristics like luster. The more an element is metallic, the more of these characteristics it will have.

So to answer this question, you simply have to see what kind of elements these are:

Sb, 51 (Antimony): <em>Metalloid</em>

Sn, 50 (Tin): <em>Transition Metal</em>

Se, 34 (Selenium): <em>Non-Metal</em>

Therefore, Antimony will have more metal characteristics than the rest, putting it at the top. Selenium is a non-metal, so that goes at the bottom, and Tin will be second.

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Y is a 3-chloro-3-methylpentane.

The structure is shown in the figure attached.

Explanation:

The radical chlorination of 3-methylpentane can lead to a tertiary substituted carbon (Y) and to a secondary one (X).

The E2 elimination mechanism, as shown in the figure, will happen with a simulyaneous attack from the base and elimination of the chlorine. This means that primary and secondary substracts undergo the E2 mechanism faster than tertiary substracts.
