Answer:
C. Deductive reasoning
Explanation:
Deductive reasoning is a reasoning or logical process whereby a conclusion is drawn based on the belief of multiple premises that are generally assumed to be true. It is a logical process in which one or multiple statements reaches a logical conclusion.
In the question, the statement assumed to be true is that <em>noble gases are unreactive because of their electronic structures.</em>
The conclusion thus drawn from the premise is that <em>if other elements could be made to achieve noble gases electronic structures (</em><u><em>this is the reason why they are unreactive - the fact)</em></u><em> they would be more stable.</em>
<em />
Therefore, deductive reasoning moves from a wilder reasoning to a specific (narrower) reasoning.

Answer:
It is true that earth was once covered with oceans and little dry land.
Explanation:
Over the course of around four billion years, the Earth's oceans have lost about a quarter of their original mass. Today the atmosphere is rich in oxygen, which reacts with both hydrogen and deuterium to recreate water, which falls back to the Earth's surface. So the vast bulk of the water on Earth is held in a closed system that prevents the planet from gradually drying out. According to the researchers, the continents emerged relatively suddenly from an ocean that covered 95 percent of the Earth's surface. The appearance of large masses of dry land would have caused more extreme weather, changes in ocean currents and the emergence of proper seasons. In turn, these environmental changes may have led to rise in atmospheric oxygen that enabled the explosion of new life forms around 500 million years ago.
Answer:
30.17 × 10²³ atoms
Explanation:
Given data:
Number of moles of lead = 5.01 mol
Number of atoms = ?
Solution:
Avogadro number:
The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.
It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.
The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.
For example,
18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water
1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen
In given question:
1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms
5.01 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms / 1 mol
30.17 × 10²³ atoms
