Answer: magnetism, electrical conductivity, high melting point

Explanation: Physical properties of metals include: ductility, magnetism, malleability, high electrical conductivity, high density, high melting and high boiling point.

Magnetism is the property of metals which makes them to be attracted by magnets.

Metals are good conductors of electricity because their valence electrons are free to move through out the solid.

Metals have high melting points because of the strong bonds existing between valence electrons and nuclei. High energy is required to break the strong bonds between the nucleus and the valence electrons in order for the metals to melt. This means that metals melt at high temperatures.

Answer:

D. magnetism, electrical conductivity, high melting point

Explanation:

Magnetism is the property of metal due to which they are attracted by magnets. Metals have high electrical conductivity which means they are good conductors of electricity. They also have high melting points i. e. they require high amount of heat to change its solid state into liquid state. In melting, bonds are broken down due to the applicable of heat energy.

Why does the oxygen atom in a water molecule have a negative charge
rodikova [14]

In water molecule the electrons between the oxygen and the hydrogen are shared, but the sharing is not equal. Oxygen pulls electrons slightly towards itself. Therefore, the electrons are more near the oxygen, making that part of molecule(oxygen part) slightly negative. Since the electrons are not near the hydrogen so, that part of the molecule is slightly positive.

When a horse and a donkey have an offspring, it is called a mule--a hybrid that cannot reproduce itself. Why are horses and donk
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Horses and donkeys are two different species but belong to the same family Equidae and the genus Equus. They both have different numbers of chromosomes.

Although they look quite similar in appearance, there are many dissimilarities.

The physical differences between horses and donkeys include:

Donkeys backs are flatter than horses.

Donkeys have smaller hoofs than horses.

Donkeys have longer and thicker ears than horses.

Horses tend to have a long face than Donkeys.

Horses have six vertebrates, while donkeys have only five.

Tails of horses and donkey differ. Horses have long tails, whereas donkey’s tail looks like a cow’s tail.

On the genetic level, the total number of chromosomes in the horse is 64 and donkey have 62 number of chromosomes. Mule is a hybrid of a female horse and a male donkey. Hinny is a hybrid of a female donkey and a male horse. Both the offspring (hybrid offspring) produced by donkeys and horses are infertile, sterile, cannot have its own offspring and both have 31 pairs of chromosomes each.

If the produced offspring is fertile then the animals are of the same species and if the produced offspring is sterile then they are of different species. Because of this, both horses and donkeys are considered as a separate species. A species is generally defined as a group of organisms, which are capable of interbreeding and creating viable offspring. In this case, mule and the hinny are not really a new species and are produced by two different species.
