Answer:
When cells become damaged or die the body makes new cells to replace them. This process is called cell division. One cell doubles by dividing into two. Two cells become four and so on.
Explanation:
Answer:
Scientists know that today the Earth's magnetic field is powered by the solidification of the planet's liquid iron core. The cooling and crystallization of the core stirs up the surrounding liquid iron, creating powerful electric currents that generate a magnetic field stretching far out into space.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
To answer this question, we will need to write the dissociation equation of aluminum trichloride.
AlCl3 ——-> Al3+ + 3Cl-
It can be seen that when aluminum chloride dissociates, it gives one mole of aluminum ion and three moles of the chloride ion.
From here we can see that the concentration of the aluminum chloride equals that of the aluminum ion while that of the chloride ion is thrice that of the aluminum chloride. This means we simply multiply 0.12M by 3 to get the molarity of the chloride ion while that of the aluminum ion remains the same

48. The metallic potassium atoms lose one electron and form +1 cations,
and the nonmetallic fluorine atoms gain one electron and form –1 anions.
K → K+

9p/10e–
The ionic bonds are the attractions between K+
cations and F–
anions.

52. (a) covalent…nonmetal-nonmetal (b) ionic…metal-nonmetal
54. (a) all nonmetallic atoms - molecular (b) metal-nonmetal - ionic
56. (a) 7 (b) 4
58. Each of the following answers is based on the assumption that nonmetallic
atoms tend to form covalent bonds in order to get an octet (8) of
electrons around each atom, like the very stable noble gases (other than
helium). Covalent bonds (represented by lines in Lewis structures) and lone
pairs each contribute two electrons to the octet.
(a) oxygen, O
If oxygen atoms form two covalent bonds, they will have an octet of electrons
around them. Water is an example:
H O H
(b) fluorine, F
If fluorine atoms form one covalent bond, they will have an octet of electrons
around them. Hydrogen fluoride, HF, is an example:
H F
(c) carbon, C
If carbon atoms form four covalent bonds, they will have an octet of electrons
around them. Methane, CH4, is an example:
H H

(d) phosphorus, P
If phosphorus atoms form three covalent bonds, they will have an octet
