In the given cycle ABCDA, the heat required for an ideal monoatomic gas will be:
A conducting wire is stretched by applying a deforming force, so that its diameter decreases to 40% of the original value. The percentage change in its resistance will be:
Lanthanoids are at the top of these two-row, while actinoids are at the bottom row.
Lanthanoids are inclusive of 14 elements, with atomic numbers 58-71:
These elements are also called rare earth elements. They are found naturally on the earth, and they're all radioactively stable except promethium, which is radioactive. A trend is one of the interesting properties of the lanthanoid elements, called lanthanide contraction.
