<span>The answer is B. Convection occurs when hot/warm
water rise to the top and the cold water goes to the bottom in a vessel. This is
because hot/warm water is less dense than cold water. Additionally, convection
currents are well perceptible in air and water and fluid substances that are
poor conductors of heat</span>
Mixtures and solutions... what?
Answer:
Rubber is an insulator.
Remaining three are metals and hence conductors.
Answer:
1s2 2s2 2p6
Explanation:
The nitride ion(N^3-) is formed when nitrogen gains three electrons. Nitrogen possesses seven electrons in its orbitals and ordinarily has the electronic configuration; 1s2 2s2 2p3. However,being in group 15, nitrogen can accept three electrons to form the nitride ion and complete its octet of electrons. When this happens, three electrons are added to the nitrogen atom and the electronic configuration is now the same as that of Neon, its closest noble gas which is 1s2 2s2 2p6. Hence the answer given above.
Elements can accept or donate electrons in order to complete their octet structure in accordance to the octet rule which states that atoms and ions must possess eight electrons in their outermost shell in order to attain chemical stability. The reason for ion formation and chemical reaction is in order for species to attain the octet structure.
Reduction I think... not entirely sure though... when a molecule loses oxygen...?
