  • Nonmetal Gases in Group 14: Understanding Carbon's Role
    Lead (Pb) is in Group 14 (IVA) of the periodic table. The only nonmetal gas in this group is carbon (C).

    Here's why:

    * Group 14: This group is known as the carbon group.

    * Nonmetal gas: Carbon exists as a gas at room temperature in its elemental form as CO2 (carbon dioxide).

    * Other elements in Group 14: The other elements in this group (silicon, germanium, tin, and lead) are all solids at room temperature.
