Which of the following group is NOT Dobereiner Triads?

 

Hardness can be removed by adding sodium carbonate (washing soda) or by passing the water through an ion-exchange column.

Hardness in water is caused by dissolved magnesium ions and calcium ions. These can get into the water when it comes into contact with limestone and other rocks that contain calcium compounds. This can happen, for example, when rainwater flows over these rocks on its way to a reservoir.

Hardness in water is of two types. They are :

1. Temporary hardness

2. Permanent hardness

1. Temporary hardness:: Temporary hardness is caused by dissolved calcium hydrogen carbonate.

2. Permanent hardness:: Permanent hardness is caused by dissolved calcium sulfate. Unlike temporary hardness, it is not removed by boiling the water.

A solution is a homogeneous type of mixture of two or more substances.

A solution has two parts::

1. A solute and

2. A solvent.

The solute is the substance that dissolves, and the solvent is the majority of the solution.

For neutral atoms, the periodic trends in atomic size can be described like this

Atomic size decreases when going from left to right across a period,
Atomic size increases when going from top to bottom down a group.

Let's use these trends to try and figure out which atom would have the largest radius.

If you look at elements that are located in the same group, potassium will have a larger atomic radius when compared with sodium. Likewise, bromine will have a larger atomic radius when compared with chlorine.

Now focus on potassium and bromine. Since potassium is located at the start of period 3, and bromine at the end of the same period, potassium will have a larger atomic radius than bromine, and thus the largest atomic radius of the four given atoms.

Bond order is proportional to the bond length is a False statement since Bond order is inversely proportional to the bond length.

Chemical weathering is what happens when rocks are broken down and chemically altered.

Chemical weathering is the breakdown of rocks by chemical reactions. Chemical weathering involves changes in the chemical composition of the existing rock to form new rock. Some examples of chemical weathering are hydrolysis, oxidation, carbonation, dissolution, etc.

The main group number for an element can be found from its column on the periodic table. For example, carbon is in group 4 and has 4 valence electrons. Oxygen is in group 6 and has 6 valence electrons.

An amorphous or non-crystalline solid is a solid that lacks the long-range order that is characteristic of a crystal. In Brief, An amorphous solid is any noncrystalline solid in which the atoms and molecules are not organized in a definite lattice pattern. Such solids include glass, plastic, and gel.

Quartz glass (SiO2) is an amorphous solid due to its short range order of constituent particles. Note Quartz is a crystalline solid while quartz glass is an amorphous solid.

The freezing point of water and melting point is 0 °C or 32 °F. The temperature may be lower if supercooling occurs.
