Answer:
1
Explanation:
For non metals to attain a noble gas configuration, they gain the number of electrons needed to attain the noble gas configuration of the noble gas at the end of their periods. This means that these non metals would only take up the configuration of the last element on their periods which of course is always a noble gas.
The last element on the hydrogen period or more conservatively the only other element on the hydrogen period is helium, with an atomic number of 2. The atomic number is the number of protons in he nucleus of an atom. For an electrically neutral atom, the number of electrons equal the number of protons.
Hence we can deduce that helium has 2 electrons while hydrogen has one electron. Thus for it to attain the configuration of helium, it just needs to gain one more electron
This equation is impossible. NaSO4 is non-existent. Did you mean Na2SO4?
Answer:
The carbon cycle
Or
Carbon moves from living things to the atmosphere. Each time you exhale, you are releasing carbon dioxide gas (CO2) into the atmosphere. Animals and plants get rid of carbon dioxide gas through a process called respiration. Carbon moves from fossil fuels to the atmosphere when fuels are burned.
Answer:
The correct answers are:
• Softer, porous, or more permeable rocks weather faster than harder rocks.
• Rocks in warmer climates weather faster than rocks in colder climates.
• The more water present, the faster the rate of weathering.
Explanation:
Weathering is the process through which the surface minerals of rock are broken down and loosened. This occurs through the action of extreme temperatures, rainwater and biological activity.

Answer:
C. 1 proton 3 neutrons
Explanation:
A nucleus is more stable if the ratio of the neutrons to protons is between 1:1 and 1:1.5.
Thus the ratios of neutrons to protons for the nuclei are as follows
A- 1:1
B- 1:1
C- 1:3
D- 1:2
Among these ratios, C is the greatest thus the nucleus is the least stable.
