The non-metal A is an important constituent of our food and most of the fuels around us. A forms two oxides B and C. The oxide B is poisonous whereas oxide C causes global warming.
(a) Identify A, B and C.
(b) To which group of periodic table does A belong?
(c) Name another element which is placed in the same group as A.
उत्तर
(a) The non-metal A which is an important constituent of our food and most of the fuels around us is carbon. Carbon combines with oxygen in two ways to form two oxides. When one atom of carbon combines with one atom of oxygen, carbon monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas is formed. And when one atom of carbon combines with two atoms of oxygen, carbon dioxide (CO2) is formed which causes global warming.
(b) Carbon belongs to group 14 of the periodic table.
(c) Silicon (Si) is another element which is placed in the same group 14 of the periodic table.
