Answer:

A. Fault blocks

Explanation:

The block mountains are formed by pieces of the crust that breaks down and pieces are pushed up by the movement of the crust around them.  These type of mountains usually have a steep and a slope side, due to the irregular nature of the fracture.  Example of such mountains are the Sierra Nevada mountains in North-America.

<u>They're not caused by the collision of two tectonic plates</u>, like most of the mountains of our planet.

Answer: A. fault blocks

Explanation: Fault-block Mountains - Fault-block mountains are formed along fault lines (the edge between plates).

The huge chunks of rock on either side of the fault are called fault blocks. As the tectonic plates

move, some of the fault blocks are pushed up, while others are pushed down. This difference in

elevation (height) forms fault block mountains. The Sierra Nevada Mountains in the western United

States are fault-block mountains.

Answer:

Electrons

Explanation:

Atoms can combine together and share electrons between them. Atoms that share electrons are linked to each other in a form, called a molecule that is in a lower energy state than either of the separate atoms alone.

In one experiment, magnesium metal melts. In a second experiment, magnesium metal ignites as it combines with oxygen. Classify t
joja [24]

Answer:

magnesium metal melts = physical change

magnesium metal ignites = chemical change

Explanation:

<em>Physical changes</em> are those in which the identity of the subtance <u>remains unaltered</u>. No new compounds are formed. They involve generally changes in <u>agreggation states of matter</u>: solid, liquid or gas. The first experiment, in which magnesium metal melts is a physical change because it only changes the state of matter, from solid to liquid, but it is still magnesium metal.

Conversely, <em>chemical changes</em> involve atoms combinations to form new compounds. The second experiment, in which magnesium metal ignites, is a chemical change. After the change, magnesium metal is no longer the metal but a metal oxide.

In which set do all elements tend to form anions in binary ionic compounds? li, na, k n, o, i c, s, pb k, fe, br?
pav-90 [236]

Atoms or molecule after gaining of electron possesses negative charge and is known as anion.

For the given sets:

  • Li, Na, K

The given elements are alkali metals and have tendency to lose electrons easily and form cations.

  • N, O, I

The given elements are non-metals and are electronegative. So, they gain electrons easily and form anion.

  • C, S, Pb

Carbon has tendency to form bond by sharing of electrons, Sulfur has tendency to gain electrons and form anion whereas Lead has tendency to lose electron.

  • K, Fe, Br

Potassium and Iron has tendency to lose electron and form cation whereas Bromine has tendency to gain electron to form anion.

Hence, from the given sets, all elements of set: N, O, I have tendency to form anions in binary ionic compounds.
