Answer:
D
Explanation:
Metallic character decreases as you move across a period in the periodic table from left to right. This occurs as atoms more readily accept electrons to fill a valence shell than lose them to remove the unfilled shell. Metallic character increases as you move down an element group in the periodic table. This is because electrons become easier to lose as the atomic radius increases, where there is less attraction between the nucleus and the valence electrons because of the increased distance between them.

Explanation:
There is an evident reason why some of the solutions Carson's has listed and observed, does conduct electricity and some that do.
A flow of electrical charge is called an electric current. Ions are atoms, or sets of atoms, that contain an electrical charge. There are two types of ions, cation or a positively charged ion containing a deficiency of electrons, and anion or a negatively charged ion which contains a surplus of electrons. When a solution conducts electricity the charge is carried within by ions that move through the solution. The larger the number of ions in the solution, the better the conductivity of the solution is. Pure water does not conduct very well because it contains very few ions, but when table salt (NaCl) is dissolved in the water, this solution does conduct well because the solution contains a more abundance of ions. The majority of the ions come from the table salt, chemically names sodium chloride. Because Sodium contains its sodium ions, and these are positive charge and chloride ions which is a negative charge, it is called an ionic substance. Not every substance is made up of ions, one such example is sugar (C12H22O11). Sugar is made up of uncharged particles also called molecules. Although sugar is a substance its molecules do not hold a charge, thus when sugar is dissolved in water, the solution does not conduct electricity, due to the lack of ions in the solution.
Therefore, depending on the ions that make up the compound, the substance would or would not conduct electricity.
Answer:
300 kg
Explanation:
The number of people in the city, p = 400,000
The number of capsules of oseltamivir each person consumes per day, n = 2 capsules
The number of days each person consumes the oseltamivir capsules, t = 5 days
The mass of oseltamivir in each capsule, m = 75 mg
The mass of oseltamivir needed to treat all the people in the city, <em>M</em>, is given as follows;
M = n·t·m·p
∴ M (in milligrams) = (2 × 5 × 75 × 400,000) mg = 300,000,000 mg
1,000,000 mg = 1 kg
∴ 300,000,000 mg = 300 kg
The mass of oseltamivir needed to treat all the people in the city, <em>M</em> = 300 kg
