The outer surface of a beaker containing ice cubes becomes wet in short while - Give scientific reason.

Question  The outer surface of a beaker containing ice cubes becomes wet in short while. Answer  When ice cubes are placed in a beaker, ice starts melting.  The heat required for melting is absorbed from the surrounding air and also from the beaker to some extent.  Hence, the temperature of the air and beaker falls.  The capacity of air to hold water vapour depends upon the temperature of the air, and this capacity decreases as the temperature decreases.  At a certain low temperature, the surrounding air becomes saturated with water vapour present in it.  As the temperature falls further, the air is unable to hold all the water vapour.  Hence, the extra water vapour starts condensing on the cold outer surface of the beaker in the form of minute drops.  Therefore, The outer surface of the beaker containing ice cubes becomes wet in a short while.

Element belonging to the same group have the same valency.

Question 

Element belonging to the same group have the same valency.

Answer 

The valency of an element is determined by the number of valence electron in the outermost shell of an atom of an element.

All the elements in group have the same number of valence electrons. Therefore, elements in the same group should have the same valency. 


For example, the elements of group 1 contain only one valency of element of a group 1 is one. Similarly for group 2, the valency is two.
