<u>Science is a systematic enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the universe. The earliest roots of science can be traced to Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia in around 3000 to 1200 BCE.</u>

My answer is B. 2.
Below is an explanation, I found while doing the research.
<span>Phosphate needs 3 electrons each totaling 6 electrons so each zinc will need to give up 2 electrons.
Phosphate wants to imitate the electron configuration of Argon because noble configurations are the most stable. With P getting the extra electrons the valence shell will be 3s2 3p6, which is the same as Argon. Without the extra electrons, the P valence shell looks like this 3s2 3p3, now you can see why each phosphorus wants 3 more electrons, that will make it 3s2 3p6, just like Argon.</span>
Most are made from crystals and minerals.
Answer:
0.16mole
Explanation:
To solve this problem, we are going to assume that the number of moles of carbon to be determined is that at STP, standard temperature and pressure.
The number of moles of a substance at STP is given as;
Number of moles =
Given volume = 3.5L
Now, insert the parameters;
Number of moles =
= 0.16mole
Moles of solute for both a and b are the same = 1 mol
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
a 500 cm³ of solution, of concentration 2 mol/dm³
b 2 litres of solution, of concentration 0.5 mol/dm³
Required
moles of solute
Solution
Molarity shows the number of moles of solute in every 1 liter of solution or mmol in each ml of solution
Can be formulated :

a.
V = 500 cm³ = 0.5 L
M = 2 mol/L
n=moles = M x V
n = 2 mol/L x 0.5 L
n = 1 mol
b.
V = 2 L
M = 0.5 mol/L
n=moles = M x V
n = 0.5 mol/L x 2 L
n = 1 mol
