Answer:

D. loess

Explanation:

Loess is a type of fertile soil formed from the action of winds that allows the accumulation of fine and very small grains (between 20 and 50 micrometres) of clay, calcium, feldspar, quartz and other minerals. This type of soil is found mainly in regions of humid or humid climate, with mild relief and significant presence of winds. About 10% of the soil on planet Earth is Loess type or similar, however, this type of soil is found in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland.

I believe the answer is D. loess. The loess soil is a predominantly silt-sized sediment formed by accumulation of wind blown dust. This soil is highly porous, homogeneous, pale yellow and friable. One way of forming loess is from glaciers and that is why they contain glacially ground flour like clay and silt.

What is the best definition for the atomic number in an element
arlik [135]
The atomic number in an element is usually how many protons the element has. For example, Hydrogen has a 1 on top of the H (on the periodic table), therefore, Hydrogen has 1 proton. Oxygen has an 8 on top of the O (on the periodic table) so therefore, Oxygen has 8 protons.

If you start a chemical reaction with 5 atoms of hydrogen, how many hydrogen atoms will you have when it is finished? Group of a
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

5 atoms

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, "matter is neither created nor destroyed in the cause of a chemical reaction".

We finish with what we start with in a chemical reaction. Although new species might form, the number of atoms on both sides of the expression will still be maintained.

All chemical reactions obey this law of conservation.
