Answer:

The two properties of most non metals are high ionization energy and poor electrical conductivity. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is option "1". In general it is known that nonmetals are very poor conductors of heat and electricity. The nonmetals that are solid are normally very brittle and has very little or no metallic luster at all. Nonmetals are highly reactive and show variety of chemical properties. It can also be pointed out that the nonmetals gain electrons very easily.

What would happen to the annual rates of limestone (CaCO3) precipitation in the ocean if the ocean water were to become much war
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

CaCO3 exoskeleton dissolves in acidic water

Explanation:

The increasing CO2 level makes the ocean water acidic and hence reduces the pH. In such acidic environment, marine organism that produce calcium carbonate shells or skeletons are negatively affected. Coral reefs and coralline algae abilities to produce skeleton also reduces.  

Calcium carbonate dissolves in acid. Thus, the more acidic the ocean water is the faster and easier it is to dissolve the exoskeleton and shell of marine organisms made up of calcium carbonate

During an experiment, it is observed that iron powder sinks in water and sulfur powder floats in water. What will most likely be
lutik1710 [3]

Sulfur will float, and iron will sink because each will retain its properties.

“Iron will float, and sulfur will sink because each will lose its properties” is <em>incorrect</em>. A substance will lose its properties only if it reacts to form a new substance.

“Both will float because they are physically mixed” is <em>incorrect</em>. The substances in a mixture retain their properties.

“Both will float because they react chemically” is <em>incorrect</em>. Iron and sulfur do not react at room temperature. Even if they did, the iron sulfide would sink.
