Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When ore is extracted from below the surface of Earth by following a safe procedure which is also economically balanced is known as underground mining.

A horizontal or vertical tunnel can be drafted or made in order to reach from surface of the Earth to underground mine.

This tunnel is known as shaft or decline. This mining can lead to collapse of the land and it also causes sink holes.

Hence, one has to be very careful during this process of mining and proper safety measures should be followed.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement underground mining increases risk of land collapse and sinkholes, is true about environmental risk of underground mining.

Which of these elements is this group?
sergey [27]

Answer:

Strontium

Explanation:

In the periodic table, an element with two (2) valence electrons is found on group 2. Group 2 is a group of the periodic table that harbors element called ALKALINE EARTH METALS. As the name implies, they are metals that possess shiny and solid characteristics at room temperature.

Group 2 elements include the following: Beryllium (Be), Magnesium (Mg), Calcium (Ca), Strontium (Sr), barium (Ba), and radium (Ra). Based on the descriptive information in this question, the element being described is a GROUP 2 element. Based on the elements in the option, only STRONTIUM (Sr) is a group 2 element.

A sample of CO2 gas has a volume of 2.7 L at 78.5 kPa. At what pressure would this sample of gas have a volume of 4.0L? Temperat
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

52.99 kPa

Explanation:

Initial volume V1 = 2.7 L

Initial Pressure P1 = 78.5 kPa

Final Volume V2 = 4.0L

Final Pressure P2 = ?

Temperature is constant

The relationship between these quantities is given by the mathematical expression of Boyles law. This is given as;

V1P1 = V2P2

P2 = V1P1 / V2

P2 = 2.7 * 78.5 /  4.0

P2 = 52.99 kPa

Lewis dot structure for N3-
labwork [276]

Answer :

The steps involved in the electron dot structure of N^{3-} are :

First we have to determine the total number of valence electron in N^{3-}.

Number of valence electrons in N = 5

The charge on N is (-3). So, we add 3 electrons.

Total number of valence electrons = 5 + 3 = 8 electrons

The image is shown below.

For each molecule, specify the polarity of the bonds and the overall polarity of the molecule.
olasank [31]
Each Be–Cl bond is polar because the two atoms have different electronegativities. The number of outer atoms (2) and lone pairs on the central atom (0) indicate that this molecule has a linear geometry. The bonds in a linear molecule are symmetric, and so their dipoles cancel out.

Each O–H bond is polar because the two atoms have different electronegativities. The number of outer atoms (2) and lone pairs on the central atom (2) indicate that this molecule has a bent geometry. The bonds in a bent molecule are asymmetric, and so their dipoles do not cancel out. In addition, the asymmetric arrangement of the lone pairs on O further contribute to the dipole of this molecule.

An O–O or O=O bond is nonpolar because the two atoms have the same electronegativity. Because there is no overall polarity in O2, the molecule is nonpolar.
