Answer:-

Metalloids

Explanation:-

The stair step line is a line in the periodic table that divides the metals on one side and the non metals on the other side. So the elements which lie on the stair step line must have properties in between those exhibited by the metals and those by the non metals.

Such elements we know are called metalloids. Thus In the periodic table, the elements that are adjacent to the "stair step" are called metalloids.

Explain at least one observation you can make about the political borders and the language borders shown on the maps.
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

A boundary is a real or imaginary line that separates two things. In geography, boundaries separate different regions of the Earth.The most obvious type of boundary is a physical boundary. A physical boundary is a naturally occurring barrier between two areas. Rivers, mountain ranges, oceans, and deserts can all serve as physical boundaries. Many times, political boundaries between countries or states form along physical boundaries. For example, the boundary between France and Spain follows the peaks of the Pyrenees Mountains, while the Alps separate France from Italy.

The Strait of Gibraltar is the boundary between southwestern Europe and northwestern Africa. This narrow waterway between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea is an important political, economic, and social boundary between the continents.

Rivers are common boundaries between nations, states, and smaller political units such as counties. The Rio Grande forms a large part of the boundary between Mexico and the United States. The Mississippi Riveris the defining boundary between many of the states it winds through, including Iowa and Illinois, Arkansas and Tennessee, and Louisiana and Mississippi.

A cough syrup contains 5.0% ethyl alcohol, c2h5oh, by mass. if the density of the solution is 0.9928 g/ml, determine the molarit
WARRIOR [948]
To answer the question above, let us a basis of the 1000 mL or 1 L. 
                 volume = (0.9928 g/mL)(1000mL) = 992.8 g
Then, determine the mass of the alcohol by multiplying the total mass by the decimal equivalent of 5%. 
               mass of alcohol = 0.05(992.8 g) = 49.64 g
Then, determine the number of moles of ethyl alcohol by dividing the mass of alcohol by the molar mass (46 g/mol). 
                       n = 49.64 g/ (46 g/mol) = 1.08 mol
Then, divide the number of moles by the volume (our basis is 1 L)
                       molarity = 1.08 mol/ 1 L = 1.08 M

What is the scientific notation of 36000x10 ex.10?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

3.6 times 10^4

Explanation:

Scientific notation is between 1-9. So, we move 36000 to 4 decimal places. SO it would be 3.6 times 10^4. Scientific Notation always has the base of 10 . Enjoy :)
