Answer:

D) Low temperatures

Explanation:

Non-metals are elements that do not show metallic characteristics like heat conductivity, electrical conductivity, malleability, e.t.c. They are generally less dense and are bonded with weak forces in between their compounds.

The weakness of non-metals is the chief reason why they generally tend to have low boiling point. Only the presence of impurities can cause an elevation in their boiling points.

Metals on the other hand are good heat conductors and they generally have a high boiling point.

Diffusion is the movement of a solute from an area of its high concentration to an area of its low concentration – i.e. down a concentration gradient. This process is “passive” – i.e. it requires no energy; the gradient is enough to drive the process.

Answer: The density of the liquid is $1.10g/cm^3$

Explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

$Density=\frac{mass}{Volume}$

Given : Mass of the unknown liquid = 938 grams

Volume of the unknown liquid = $0.852L=852cm^3$ $(1L=1000cm^3$

Putting in the values we get:

$Density=\frac{938g}{852cm^3}$

$Density=1.10g/cm^3$

Thus the density of the liquid is $1.10g/cm^3$ and the liquid is dimethyl sulfoxide.

Papessa [141]

Without its atmosphere, Earth would be bombarded by meteorites, similar to mars, relatively lifeless. Without the atmosphere objects can just enter the atmosphere and cause serious harm to us, but with the atmosphere it basically reduces damage and shrinks it to size. Without the atmosphere earth would be like mars since it doesn't have a atmosphere. Without the atmosphere earth would be relatively lifeless since without air, us humans cant breathe so we will not survive.
