The correct answer to the question is A) Electrons.

EXPLANATION:

The electrical conductivity of a metal or any substance depends on the free electron concentration of the metals.

Free electrons are those electrons which are present in the conduction band of the metals. These electrons experience less amount of force attraction from the nucleus. Protons and neutrons do not  contribute anything to the current conduction in a metal.These sub atomic particles are bound to the nuclei of atoms.

When we maintain potential difference across the two ends of a conductor, the free electrons are drifted towards the positive terminal of the battery.

Hence, electrical conductivity of a substance is the ability of the electrons to move inside the substance.

More is the conductivity of the substance, the lesser is the resistance to the flow of electrons inside the substance, and vice versa.

If the absolute temperature of a gas is 600 K, the temperature in degrees Celsius is
gavmur [86]
Kelvin is a base unit of temperature scale from SI that defines as zero degree Kelvin (absolute zero). The absolute zero is a hypothetical statement that all molecular movement stops because there is no transient of energy for the molecules to move. When converting temperature in degree Celsius to Kelvin, add 273. You are given 600K and you are asked to find it in degrees Celsius.  

T(K) = T(C) + 273
600 K = T(C) + 273
T(C) = 600 – 273
T(C) = 327 °C

masha68 [24]

1). both

2). Venus

3). Venus catastrophically; Earth too but much less.

4). Earth

5). Earth

6). Venus (It would be pretty hard for US to mistake Earth for a star.)
