The answer is A: biodegradable.
Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
An atom or element which has the ability to readily gain an electron will have high electronegativity.
Both Beryllium and Calcium are alkaline earth metals and hence they are electropositive in nature.
Whereas both iodine and nitrogen are electronegative in nature. But across the period there is an increase in electronegativity and down the group there is a decrease in electronegativity.
Nitrogen belongs to period 2 and iodine belongs to the bottom of group 17. Thus, we can conclude that nitrogen is more electronegative than iodine.
If your findings disproves your hypothesis then your hypothesis is probably wrong.
Every electron carries one elementary negative charge. Concerning mass,
it takes roughly 1,840 electrons to make enough mass for 1 proton or 1 neutron.
Electrons don't necessarily have to stay connected to an atom, but when they do,
they circle the nucleus.
So you should select (C): ==> Negative, ==> light, ==> circling the nucleus.
