Decide which element probably has a boiling point most and least similar to the boiling point of potassium.
(A) thallium
(B) strontium
(C) helium
(D) sodium
The boiling point of Potassium is most similar to the element sodium , since , both the elements belong to the same group i.e. , the group one , Hence , the most of the physical chemical properties are same , irrespective of some exceptions .
Hence , the Boiling point of Potassium and sodium are the same .
The boiling point of Potassium is least similar to the element helium , since , both the elements belong to different groups , Since , Helium has a negative boiling point and is one of the most stable element , being a noble gas .
