distance to the star Betelgeuse: 640 ly

As we know that

1 ly = 63000 AU

also we know that

1AU = 1.5 \times 10^8 km

1 ly = 63000 (1.5 \times 10^8) = 9.45 \times 10^{12} km

So the distance of Betelgeuse = 640 ly

d_1 = 640 \times 9.45 \times 10^{12} = 6.05 \times 10^{15} m

distance to the star VY Canis Majoris: 3.09 × 10^8 AU

d_2 = 3.09\times 10^8 \times 1.5 \times 10^8 km

d_2 = 4.64 \times 10^{16} km

distance to the galaxy Large Magellanic Cloud: 49976 pc

1 pc = 3.262 ly = 3.262 \times 9.45 \times 10^{12} km

1pc = 3.08 \times 10^{13} km

now we have

d_3 = 49976 \times 3.08 \times 10^{13}

d_3 = 1.54 \times 10^{18} km

distance to Neptune at the farthest: 4.7 billion km

d_4 = 4.7 \times 10^9 km

now the order of distance from least to greatest is as following

1. distance to Neptune at the farthest

2. distance of Betelgeuse

3. distance to the star VY Canis Majoris

4. distance to the galaxy Large Magellanic Cloud

scZoUnD [109]
The correct option is (B) <span>Aluminum is a metal and is shiny, malleable, ductile, conducts heat and electricity, forms basic oxides, and forms cations in aqueous solution.

Since Aluminium is in group 13, and all the elements in group 13 are either metals or metalloids(Boron). Hence we are left with option (B) and (D). Boron is the only metalloid in group 13 and aluminium is a metal(not a metalloid); therefore, we are left with only one option which is Option (B). And Aluminium is </span>shiny, malleable, ductile, conducts heat and electricity, forms basic oxides, and forms cations in aqueous solution.<span>
