Answer:

Option (3)

Explanation:

Ductility of a substance is defined as the property by which a substance can be hammered and change its form into thin, stretched wires. In simple words, the ductile materials can be drawn into thin wires. Some of the examples of ductile substances are gold, copper and silver.

The rocks also have this property which means that they have the capacity to get deformed into enormous strains in the absence of large scale fracturing.

Thus, the correct answer is an option (3).

Imagine the following scenario involving marbles as "radioactive isotopes".
sveta [45]

Answer:

1 million years

Explanation:

The half life of a radioactive isotope refers to the time it takes for the radioactive isotope to decay to half of its original amount.

The half life of a radioactive isotope is independent of the amount of starting material. Hence, whether the amount of starting material is small or large, the half life of the substance remains the same.

Hence the half life of 2 green marbles and 500,000 green marbles is 1 million years.

As you move across the period on the periodic table what pattern can be described about the electron configurations?
xeze [42]

Answer:

Elements in the same period have same number of electronic shell and electron is increased by one in every coming element with in same electronic shell.

Explanation:

Consider the second period of periodic table. This period consist of eight elements lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine and neon.

Electronic configuration of lithium:

Li₃ = [He] 2s¹

Electronic configuration of beryllium:

Be₄ = [He] 2s²

Electronic configuration of boron:

B₅ = [He] 2s² 2p¹

Electronic configuration of carbon:

C₆ = [He] 2s² 2p²

Electronic configuration of nitrogen:

N₇ = [He] 2s² 2p³

Electronic configuration of oxygen:

O₈ = [He] 2s² 2p⁴

Electronic configuration of fluorine:

F₉ = [He] 2s² 2p⁵

Electronic configuration of neon:

Ne₁₀ = [He] 2s² 2p⁶

All these elements present in same period having same electronic shell and number of electron increased by 1.

How many individual orbitals does carbon use for all of its electrons? Remember, there are two electrons in each filled orbital
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Three orbitals

Explanation:

The electronic configuration of carbon is given as follows;

1s²2s²2p²

Therefore, out of the six electrons of the carbon atoms, 4 fill the 1s and 2s orbitals with 2 electrons each, while the two remaining electrons are situated in the 2p orbital, with the electrons in the 2p orbital will remain unpaired such that they will have similar quantum numbers in accordance with Pauli exclusion principle.

Indicate the number of significant figures in the measured number 0.0020 <br> A. 4<br> B. 5<br> C. 2
Sergio [31]

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is C. 2.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given the number '0.0020' and we are to indicate the number of significant figures in the given measured number.

According to the rules of significant figures, numbers that are non-zero, zeros between any two significant numbers and the ending zeros in the decimal position are categorized as significant figures.

Since there is one non-zero number and one ending zero in the decimal position, therefore 0.0020 has 2 significant figures.

Hot air balloons work due to a current moving heat energy around within the balloon. which heat energy transfer process is happe
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Convection.

Explanation:

Why? This transfer of heat energy away from the ground by the vertical movement of air is called "free convection" or "natural convection." A hot air balloon rises because warmer air is less dense than cool air.                                                (plz brainlyest)
