<span>Answer: 0.00 meters
Solution:
Step 1: Define displacement
DISPLACEMENT = a vector quantity that describes "linear or angular distance in a given direction between a body or point and a reference position."
Step 2: Understand the question
Assumption 1: Assume that when the ant moves 4.25 meters from its origin to its nest, it is moving in a positive direction (on a graph you would draw a line along the x-axis from its origin to +4.25).
Assumption 2: Assume that when the ant "turns around...back to the source of food", it is moving back in the negative direction (towards the origin).
Step 3: Analyze the question
What is the distance between where the ant originally started and where it ended its journey?
The ant started and ended its journey in the same place.
While it traveled a distance of 8.52 meters (2 * 4.26 = 8.52), it's displacement is actually 0.00 meters (4.26 + (-4.26) = 0.00)
Therefore, the answer is 0.00 meters</span>

Like PCl3
SO2 and HCl
Explanation:
When organisms and plants died and sank to the bottom of swamps and oceans, brown soil-like materials called peat are formed. Over millions of years, the peat became covered with sand, clay and other minerals and the peat is converted into layers of sedimentary rocks. After a long time, different type of fossil fuels are formed.
Rutherford performed gold foil experiment to understand that how negative and positive particles could Co exist in an atom. He bombarded alpha particles on a 0.00004 cm thick gold foil.
He proposed a planetary model of the atom and concluded following results and demonstrated that,
1. An atom produces a line spectrum.
2. An Electron revolves around the nucleus without any orbits.
3. Since most of the particles passed through the foil undeflected it means that most of the volume occupied by an atom is empty.
4. An Atom as a whole is neutral.
5. The deflection of few particles on the foil suggested that there is center of positive particles in an atom called the nucleus of the atom.
6. The complete rebounce of few particles on the gold foil suggested that the nucleus is very dense and hard.
