Chapter 22, Problem 22.103SP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for the discussed pipes to be made up of tin needs to be explained.
Concept introduction:
The group 4A elements show variation from non-metals to metals down in the group. The first element of the group 4A is carbon with 4 valence electrons.
The group 4A is a combination of non-metal, metalloid and metals. The first element of the group 4A is carbon with 4 valence electrons. C, Si, Ge and Sn have allotropes with diamond structure, whereas Sn and Pb have metallic allotrope as they are metallic element.
