Question
Chapter 18, Problem 105AE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The reason for the instability of long chains of the silicon atoms needs to be explained. Also, the reason for a different mechanism in the decomposition of long carbon chains needs to be explained.
Concept Introduction: In the Long form of periodic table, the non-metals are mainly placed at the right side of the periodic table that is called as p-block elements. All non-metals are placed in p-block element. Metals make the 75 % part of the periodic table.
The group −VA is called as nitrogen family. It starts from Nitrogen element and elements exhibits -3 to +5 oxidation states.
