Study Notes
Group 5A - Nitrogen Family
- Known as the Nitrogen Family, it includes essential elements for life and industry.
- Comprises elements: Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Arsenic (As), Antimony (Sb), and Bismuth (Bi).
- Nitrogen (N) is crucial for amino acids and nucleic acids in biological systems.
- Phosphorus (P) plays a vital role in energy transfer (ATP) and is a key component of DNA and RNA.
- Arsenic (As), though toxic, has applications in semiconductors and alloys.
- Antimony (Sb) is used in flame retardants and lead-acid batteries.
- Bismuth (Bi) is non-toxic and is utilized in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.
Group 6A - Chalcogens
- Also referred to as Chalcogens, this group includes vital components for biological and industrial processes.
- Includes elements: Oxygen (O), Sulfur (S), Selenium (Se), Tellurium (Te), and Polonium (Po).
- Oxygen (O) is essential for respiration and is a key player in combustion processes.
- Sulfur (S) is found in amino acids and vitamins, contributing to protein structure.
- Selenium (Se) has antioxidant properties and is crucial for various metabolic functions.
- Tellurium (Te) is utilized in metallurgical applications and in photovoltaic cells.
- Polonium (Po) is a radioactive element used in certain industrial applications and research.
