As the elements from group 15 are considered from top to bottom, the first ionization energy of the elements 1) increases, and the electronegativity decreases

)benzene and toluene form nearly ideal solutions. consider an equimolar solution of benzene and toluene. at 20 °c the vapour pressures of pure benzene and toluene are 9.9 kpa and 2.9 kpa, respectively. the solution is boiled by reducing the external pressure below the vapour pressure. calculate (i) the pressure when boiling begins, (ii) the composition of each component in the vapour, and (iii) the vapour pressure when only a few drops of liquid remain. assume that the rate of vaporization is low enough for the temperature to remain constant at 20 °c.

The human activities in two locations are described below: location a: rampant use of plastic containers location b: excessive use of pesticides and fertilizers which statement is most likely true? location a will have poor air quality because plastic is biodegradable. location a will experience water scarcity because plastic absorbs moisture. the population of honeybees will increase in location b because production of crops will increase. the population of fish in location b will decrease because the water is contaminated.
