Solution:
$\textbf{HINT:} \text{Group 16}^{\text{th}} \text{ elements are called chalcogen.}$$ $\textbf{Explanation:}$$ $\text{1.) H}_2\text{SO}_4 \text{ is used in storage batteries. Battery acid is sulfuric acid that has}$ $\text{been diluted with water to attain a 38\% concentration level.}$$ $\text{The sulphuric acid is used as an electrolyte in lead-acid batteries. During the}$ $\text{discharge of lead-acid batteries, the lead sulphate is formed on both the}$ $\text{electrodes because of the reaction with sulphuric acid.}$$ $\text{When the battery charges, lead sulphate gets converted to lead and lead}$ $\text{oxide by releasing the sulphuric acid into the electrolyte.}$$ $\text{2.) CCl}_3\text{NO}_2 \text{ (Chloropicrin) is known as tear gas. Chloropicrin (PS) is an}$ $\text{irritant with characteristics of a tear gas. Chloropicrin (PS) has an intensely}$ $\text{irritating odor.}$$ $\text{3.) Cl}_2 \text{ has the highest electron gain enthalpy. This is because the}$ $\text{interelectronic repulsions in chlorine are weaker than in F due to bigger size}$ $\text{of chlorine.}$$ $\text{4.) Sulphur is a member of chalcogen i.e., ore-producing elements}$
