Explanation

A deficiency of Vitamin D results in Rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults.

A deficiency of Vitamin D also causes:

• Bone Pain
• Weak Bones
•  Skeletal Deformities.

Sunlight is a good source of Vitamin D.

 Additional Information:

Vitamin A deficiency causes night blindness

Vitamin C deficiency causes scurvy 

Vitamin B (B7) deficiency causes hair fall

Explanation

• The shielding effect decreases across a period.
• This is because the increasing nuclear charge is not fully counterbalanced by the same number of inner electrons, resulting in a weaker shielding effect.

Explanation

Acetic acid (CH3COOH) is a weak acid that only partially dissociates in water, forming a weak electrolyte solution.

It does not fully dissociate into ions like strong acids (like HCl) or strong bases (like KOH).

Explanation

Bromine (Br2) is the only halogen that exists in a liquid state at room temperature.

It is a reddish-brown liquid with a melting point of -7.2°C or 19°F.

Explanation

Hydroiodic acid (HI) is the strongest acid.

The acidity of hydrohalic acids increases down the group in the periodic table.

Due to the decreasing bond strength and increasing bond length.

Explanation

Barium is an alkaline earth metal, which is a group of elements in the periodic table that includes:

• Magnesium (Mg)
• Calcium (Ca)
• Strontium (Sr)
• Barium (Ba)
• Radium (Ra)

These elements are in group 2 (formerly group IIA) of the periodic table.

Explanation

• NaCl is also known as Sodium Chloride, or common table salt.
• It is a classic example of an ionic compound, where sodium (Na) loses an electron to become a positively charged ion (cation), and chlorine (Cl) gains an electron to become a negatively charged ion (anion).

Explanation

• Organic chemistry is the branch of chemistry that deals with hydrocarbons and their derivatives.
• They are compounds containing carbon and hydrogen atoms.
• It may also contain other elements like oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur.

Explanation

• H2 is only a homo atomic [homo: same] molecule.
• Rest three are hetero atomic [hetero: different] molecules).

Explanation

• Filtration
• Sedimentation
• Decantation
• Distillation
• Chromatography
