Kenning, a double metaphor, usually hyphenated is true
topjm [15]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

True, Kenning is a double metaphor that is usually hyphenated.

Explanation:

According to the Merriam Webster dictionary, Kenning is defined as a "metaphorical compound word or phrase that is used especially in Old English or Old Norse poetry". So, kenning can be roughly explained as those two-worded words that are metaphorically used to mean something else. Some examples of kenning are-  

<em>bookworm</em> - someone who reads a lot,

<em>four eyes</em> - someone who wears glasses

<em>fender bender</em>- a car accident

<em>first lady</em> - the wife of the president etc. etc.

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

c and d are correct

Explanation:

In A, false because in Valence Electrons, the more the valences, the more stable an atom is.

In B, false because atoms cannot readily gain or lose valence electrons as the number of valence electrons is determined by the column they are in.

In C, true because the more the valence electrons, the more the stability of an atom.  

In D, true as electron placing is important and the reactivity of an atom is important.

So C and D are true!

What does a fluorine ion have in common with a neon and a sodium ion
DanielleElmas [232]
The atomic number (Z) of the 3 elements F, Ne, and Na, are 9, 10, and 11.

Explanation:

Now Z refers to the number of protons in the element's nucleus, and protons are POSITIVELY charged particles. So a fluoride ion, F−, has 10 electrons rather than 9 (why?), a neutral neon atom has 10 electrons, and a sodium ion, Na+, also has 10 electrons (why?).

So the 3 species are ISOELECTRONIC; they possess the same number of electrons. 

You should look at the Periodic Table to confirm the electron number. Elements are (usually) electrically neutral (sometimes they can be ionic if they have lost or gained electrons). If there are 10 positively charged protons in the nucleus, there are NECESSARILY 10 electrons associated with the NEUTRAL atom. I don't know WHY I am capitalizing certain WORDS.

You might ask why sodium will form a positive ion, Na+, whereas F forms a negative ion, F−. This again is a Periodic phenomenon, and explicable on the basis of the electronic structure that the Table formalizes.

Neutral metals tend to be electron-rich species, which have 1 or more electrons in a valence shell remote from the nuclear charge. On the other hand, neutral non-metals have valence electrons in incomplete shells, that do not effectively shield the nuclear charge. The demonstrable consequence is that metals lose electrons to form positive ions, whereas non-metals gain electrons to form negative ions.

Which produces wave particles that move and displace one another? A) a radio B) a guitar C) a light bulb D) a microwave oven
Semmy [17]
The answer is B. A guitar generally produces sound waves that propagate when the strings are strummed. The strings are displaced through the vibrations caused by contact of the hand and the guitar. You will also notice the vibrations by looking closely to the string. Wave particles continuously collide with each other to make a sustaining or prolonging sound.
