1. Include a nonmetal (Carbon), Two metalloids (Silicon and Germanium), and two metals (Tin and Lead).
2. Vary greatly in both physical and chemical properties.
3. Occur in nature in both combined and elemental forms.
4. Consist of atoms that contain four electrons in the outermost energy level.
5. Are relatively unreactive.
6. Tend to form covalent compounds (Tin and Lead also form ionic compounds).
7. They all become solid at room temperature.

What five main characteristics of currency should you examine when looking for counterfeit bills?
1. watermark 2. security thread 3. the paper 4. the iodine pen test 5. the size of the bill
The best name for CCl4 is what?
Its name is carbon tetrachloride. Because it contains 4 chlorine
What are the 4 main branches of the 39 clues?
The 4 main branches are:Janus, Tomas, Ekaterina, and my favorite which are the Lucian. Another known branch but is not 'main' are the Madrigals,
What is the formula of carbon tetraiodide?
It is a compound formed from one carbon atom bonded to four iodine atoms.Carbon tetra iodide is a compound. It has 1 carbon atoms and 4 iodine atoms. The 4 iodine atoms are bond to the carbon atom.Carbon tetraiodide is made of one carbon atom and four iodine atoms. Carbon shares its outermost four electrons with four iodine atoms to build a molecule. The molecule is tetrahedral and insoluble in water.
What is a chemical formula for 4 carbon monoxide?
The chemical formula for carbon monoxide is CO. Therefore, the chemical formula for 4 molecules of carbon monoxide would be 4CO.
In very sample of carbon monoxide the mass ratio of carbon to oxygen is 34?
in every sample of carbon monoxide ,the mass ratio of carbon to oxygen is 3:4
4 gases found in the atmosphere?
carbon monoxide, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide
What are the disadvantages of carbon monoxide?
Frequently created by the incomplete burning of fuel, it consists of carbon and oygen. It is flammable, and lighter than air. It combines with red blood cells better than oxygen- making it difficult to get it out of your body once it is breathed in.Carbon monoxide (CO) is (3 main facts):an odorless,very toxicgas
What is the propotion by mass of carbon to oxygen in co?
The proportion by mass of carbon to oxygen in carbon monoxide (CO) is roughly 3:4. This means that for every three parts by mass of carbon, there are four parts by mass of oxygen in carbon monoxide.
Why is carbon dioxide not good reducing agent as carbon monoxide?
The carbon atom in carbon dioxide has an oxidation state of 4+ (It's missing 4 electrons.) The carbon atom in carbon monoxide has an oxidation state of 2+ (It's only missing two electrons.) A reducing agent is something that will give electrons to another substance. Carbon dioxide has less electrons to give than carbon monoxide, making it not as good of a reducing agent.
What element is carbon monoxide?
There are two elements. Carbon is one, oxygen is the other. Carbon Monoxide=CO. Co is cobalt genius.. and carbon monoxide cant be made up of its own element. One element is carbon, the other is oxygen. That's why its MONoxide. theres only one molecule of oxygen instead of 2 in carbon DIoxide. sheesh
1Kg of carbon to CO Amount oxygen required?
To convert 1 kg of carbon to carbon monoxide (CO), you need 1 kg of oxygen. This is because in the reaction of carbon with oxygen to form carbon monoxide, the ratio of carbon to oxygen is 1:1 by mass.
Does nickel react with carbon II oxide?
If Carbon II oxide refers to Carbon monoxide, you are right. Carbon monoxide reacts with Nickel at high temperatures to produce a extremely toxic compound known as Nickel tetra-carbonyl. Its formula is Ni(CO)4.Ni + 4 CO --Δ--> Ni(CO)4
Does trees absorb carbon monoxide?
Carbon Monoxide: is a colorless, odorless, tastless gas that when inhaled is toxic to humans. Carbon Monoxide: is a byproduct of a rich mixture fire, Burning wood, Gas fires, etc. Your answer is No! Trees use Carbon Dioxide which is what you release when you exhale. So-Live long.
Does carbon monoxide react on any substance?
Carbon monoxide reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. Carbon monoxide is a reactive ligand forming interesting complexes with transition metals, e.g. Ni(CO)4 which is generated in the Mond process for prifying nickel. CO when inhaled competes with oxygen in binding to hemoglobin in blood, (hemoglobin is an iron(II) coordination compound.) This essentially starves the body of oxygen and is one of the reasons carbon monoxide is so toxic.
What is the main sources of water pollution?
The main sources of water pollution are as follows : 1) sewage 2) Industrial wastes 3) synthetic soaps and detergents 4) fertilizers and pesticides 5) petroleum 6)Heat.
