Question

Eriq, a chemist, is running tests with four unknown elements. He has found that they all bond the same way, so he knows that they are in the same group on the periodic table of elements. The table shows other properties that Eriq observed. A 4-column table with 4 rows titled properties of four unknown elements. The first column titled element number has entries 1, 2, 3, 4. The second column titled melting point has entries 266 K, 172 K, 387 K, 53 K. The third column titled boiling point has entries 332 K, 239 K, 457 K, 85 K. The fourth column titled phase at room temperature has entries liquid, gas, solid, gas. These four elements are most likely in group 15. 16. 17. 18.

Answer 1

Answer:

in group 17

Explanation:

Eriq, a chemist, is running tests with four unknown elements. He has found that they all bond the same way, so he knows that they are in the same group on the periodic table of elements. The table shows other properties that Eriq observed. ... They are very unlikely to bond with any element, whether it is metallic or not.
