Law of superposition

Principle of cross-cutting

Explanation:

The geologic precepts that would be used to determine the relative ages of the rock strata are the law of superposition of strata and the principle of cross-cutting.

  • The law of superposition of strata states that "in an undisturbed sequence of rock strata, the oldest layer is usually at the bottom and the youngest on top".
  • From this law we understand that the oldest layer will be at the bottom if the rock has not been disturbed.
  • Here the rock has been disturbed by folding and we need to unravel to fold and see how the rock sequence originally was laid.

The principle of cross-cutting states that "faults are younger than the rocks they cut through". Structures in rocks are younger than rock layers they cut through.

A fault or joint will only pass through a rock that has been formed before it occurred. Subsequent rocks will be younger than the fault.

What conclusion can you make about electrons and the periodic table?
kogti [31]

Answer:

The number of valence electrons can be known from the group that the element is in (except the lanthanides, actinides and groups 3-12).

Explanation:

Group 1 has 1 valence electron. Group 2 has 2 valence electrons. Group 13 has 3 valence electrons. Group 14 has 4, group 15 has 5, group 16 has 6, group 17 has 7, and group 18 has 8.

Group 18 are the noble gases which are stable.

Group 17 are the halogens and react well with the alkali metals.
