Which set of elements have chemical properties similar to those of phosphorus? nitrogen, arsenic, and antimony

carbon, selenium, and iodine

silicon, sulfur, and germanium

silicon, sulfur, and chlorine

The set of elements that have chemical properties similar to those of phosphorus would be nitrogen, arsenic, and antimony.

Phosphorus will have similar chemical properties with nitrogen, arsenic, and antimony because they all belong to the same group in the periodic table.

All the elements belong to group 5A of the periodic table with 5 valence electrons in the outermost shells.

According to the periodic law, elements in the same group on the period table usually have similar physical or chemical properties.

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

The elements in option C. are part of the same family on the periodic table. Families are grouped by there properties which means that option C is the answer.

after making a punnet square using bv bv bv bv you will find that the ratio will be 9: 7 or a 128.6% probability.

hope this
