Question 39: Match each element to its correct group.

  1. Silver (Ag): b. Transition Metal
  2. Barium (Ba): e. Alkaline Earth Metal
  3. Iodine (I): d. Halogen
  4. Argon (Ar): a. Noble Gas
  5. Potassium (K): c. Alkali Metal

Question 40: An atom of an element can change into an atom of another element if it is:

b. radioactive and its nucleus can trap or emit particles

This is because radioactive atoms can undergo decay processes that result in the transformation into different elements.
