Hello
<span>
Both America and Kenya have a high level of possible crop damage by insects. America is able to afford insecticides and the research to go with it, to control the pests. In Kenya farmers rotate their crops as much as possible (not always possible) and this helps in reducing the risk of pests. Also Kenyan farmers often grow rice in adjacent fields with sweet potatoes; this has reduced the weevil infestation level in sweet potatoes. The same technique can be used using sweet potato, intercropped with millet and sesame.

Answer:
Mass = 0.158 g
Explanation:
Formula used,
P V = n R T
Or,
n = P V / R T
Putting values,
n = 0.948 atm . 0.025 L / 0.0821 L.atm.K⁻¹.mol⁻¹ . 291.45
n = 0.00099 mol
Note: we have changed pressure from mmHg to atm, volume from mL to L and temperature from C to K)
Also,
Mass = n . Molecular Mass
Mass = 0.00099 mol × 159.808 g/mol
Mass = 0.158 g
Mercury naturally exists in Liquid state.
On Condensing it can exist in Solid state as well.
Hope it helps...

Answer:
They are classified as METALS.
Explanation:
Elements are simple substances that cannot be chemically broken down into smaller substances. Based on different characteristics, they are classified into 3 namely:
- metals
- non metals and
- metalloid( mainly act as semi- conductor).
METALS are the type of elements that loses electrons to form positive ion, that is, they are electropositive elements. They are distinguished by the following characteristics:
- LUSTROUS: they have the ability to reflect light from its surface.
- At room temperature: Metals are solid are room temperature with the exception of Mercury which is liquid at room temperature.
- They react and form Basic Compounds
- Great conductor: most metals are great conductors of heat and electricity because they possess free electrons.
- Melting Point: they have high melting points.
