for argon being used in the filament, i chose the tick for it  being more abundant in air compared to helium, and the cross for it being less dense.

hw abt u guys?

and for the group 7 thing, i did increasing boiling and melting points, how abt u u guys?

and for the which is not the use of stainless steel, i said railway. how abt u guys?

oh, bt argon is more abundant in air, 0.93%.
 bt helium is very less, 0.02%

really..........these gases compose of 0.8% of the air.....

so do u think they r abundant....????

78% nitro
21% oxygen
1% other gases....out of these 0.2% is co2!!!!!

being more abundant is correct because argon is much more available than helium..so its much cheaper
and for gp7 m.p and b.p do increase thats why they change from gases to solids
and for stainless steel ofcourse it's railway lines because it was written that its very expensive so according to logic its right

i think maybe u misunderstood da q..
they said argon is used in filament lamps...so that they can last 4 a longer time......
which of da following properties is suitable for its use.....

so da options they gave wr totally irrelevant to its use...

no dude.....ARGON IS USED BECAUSE IT IS UNREACTIVE[INERT]

ITS NOT used because it is abundent or denser...tec..

so why dont they use xenon if its about unreactivity
its just because its abundant so it would be the cheapest
