Sati [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: C. Metals tend to easily lose their valence electrons.

Explanation:

Metals are those substances which have tendency to loose their valence electrons to attain noble gas configuration and forms positive ions called as cations.

Example: Gold, potassium etc

M\rightarrow M^++e^-

Non metals are those substances which have tendency to gain valence electrons to attain noble gas configuration and form negative ions called as anions.

Example: Sulphur, Chlorine

N+e^-\rightarrow N^-

How many gallons of 80% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 60 gallons of 20% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 70% antifre
Anarel [89]
Let A be the 80% solution and B be the 20% solution and P be the produce solution of 70%. Va and Vb and Vp are the volumes of A and B and P respectively.
Va + 60 = Vp
0.7Vp = 0.8Va + 0.2(60)
Substituting the value of Vp from the first equation:
0.7(Va + 60) = 0.8Va + 12
30 = 0.1Va
Va = 300 gallons

How can you increase the amount of work done when you lift a book explain
Gnoma [55]
<h2>Work done = mgh </h2>

Explanation:

  • In this case, while lifting the book we are working against the force of gravity.

Using the Newton's laws, we can find the force F required for lifting the book having mass (m) and acceleration due to gravity (g) that is ;

  • F = mg

and, the change in the position of the book that is Δx (Height)

→ Δx = Final position - Initial position

which is only the height, then the amount of work done will be calculated by :

W= mgh

  • Where W = Work Done

m = Mass of the Body

g = Acceleration due to Gravity

h = Height of Body being displaced

Their weights could be different.
Their volumes could be different. 
Their densities could be different.

The volume for an ounce of lead is much different than an ounce of aluminum.

the weight of a cubic meter of balsa wood is much different (and much lighter) than a cubic meter of water. That's why the ancients used balsa for their rafts.
