Answer:

The correct answer is no.

Explanation:

Tellurium is a chemical element denoted by Te and having atomic number 52. It is mildly toxic, brittle, silver-white, and rare metalloid. The element is chemically related to sulfur and selenium, all three of which are chalcogens.

Oxygen is a chemical element, that is, a substance, which comprises only one kind of atom. Its official chemical symbol is O and exhibits an atomic number 8, this signifies that an atom of oxygen possesses eight protons in its nucleus. In the given question, it is not likely that tellurium would replace for oxygen, as the two elements are highly unlike.

What accounts for the majority of all air pollution? Is that source increasing or decreasing overall?

lianna [129]

Hi there!

One of the main causes of air pollution is smoking.

Smoking affects not only humans, but pets and animals as well. Animals can get cancer too!

Another big cause of pollution is cars. Gasoline of course comes out into the air after it is used. It also affects animals.

A lot of people know that we should change this, but hardly anyone is really doing anything to try and stop it.

I know this is a short answer, but I hope it helps!

Antoine Lavoisier burned metals in sealed jars. What is your prediction of his experimental results?

Aliun [14]

Answer:

The mass of the jar and contents remained the same after the metal was burned.

Explanation:

My prediction about the experimental results is that the mass of the jar and contents remained the same after the metal was burned in the jar.

This is compliance with the law of conservation of mass which states that in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed by bonds are rearranged for new compounds to form.

In compliance with this law, it is expected that the mass of the jar and its content will remain the same before and after the reaction.
No new material was added and no material was removed from the jar.
