Answer: The correct option is C ( is very hard and burns cleanly).
Explanation:
COAL is a form of rock that is made up of mostly carbon amongst other elements which includes sulphur, nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen. There are different types of coal which include:
--> anthracite ( 90% carbon)
--> bituminous coal ( 70-90% carbon)
--> lignite ( 60- 70% carbon) and
--> peat (60 % carbon).
Anthracite is the type of coal that contains the highest carbon content ( 90% carbon). This makes it very hard and is often a times referred to as HARD COAL. Anthracite is a higher quality coal for domestic and open fire heating. This is because it contains less impurities than other type of coal and thereby making it to BURN CLEANLY avoiding atmospheric pollution.
Answer:
c
Explanation:
because the fire gives off radiation
Isotope ¹⁸F⁻ contains:
1) p⁺ = 9; number of protons.
Fluorine has a<span>tomic number Z = 9 (total number of protons).
2) e</span>⁻<span> = 10; </span>number of electrons.<span>
In element number of electrons and protons are the same, because element has neutral charge, but because in this example, fluorine is anion with negative charge, it has one electron more.
3) n</span>° = 9; number of neutrons.
<span>Mass number
A = 18 is total number of protons and neutrons in a nucleus, so number of neutrons is A-Z = 18-9=9.</span>
For very large numbers, it is much more convenient to use scientific notation. To do this, detect first the position of the decimal point. For whole numbers, the decimal point is place implicitly after the very last digit. Then, move this decimal point to the left until you reach to the last digit. In this case, you moved 8 places until you reach 6.4. Because the number is more than 1, the exponent would have a positive sign. Hence, the scientific notation would be 6.4×10⁸.
