Iodine electron configuration is:
1S^2 2S^2 2P^6 3S^2 3P^6 4S^2 3d^10 4P^6 5S^2 4d^10 5P^5
when Krypton is the noble gas in the row above iodine in the periodic table,
we can change 1S^2 2S^2 2P^6 3S^2 3P^6 4S^2 3d^10 4P^6 by the symbol
[Kr] of Krypton.
So we can write the electron configuration of Iodine:
[Kr] 5S^2 4d^10 5P^5
<span>Population growth is limited in ecosystems because of lack of resources. If there were unlimited resources, a population would grow exponentially.
For example, if a single bacterium were placed in a petri dish and was given unlimited resources, it would multiply to cover the entire world within several days.
Unfortunately, resources are limited, so populations are too.</span>
ANSWER: C) Law of Conservation of Mass
EXPLANATION: In the given cycle, it is seen that th sediments are layered and gets compressed into sedimentary rocks which eventually gets heated and compressed to form metamorphic rocks. But, the total amount of minerals present in the sediments remains the same throughout any stage of the cycle.
This proves the law of conservation of mass which states that mass can not be created nor be destroyed, it can only be transferred from one form to another. So, in this case, only phase transition occurred but the component which is mineral inside the sediments remains constant.
Therefore, the answer is law of conservation of mass.
Chlorine is the most electronegative
