<h2>Answer:</h2>

The density of mercury molecule is higher than water.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Density is defined as mass per unit volume.In other words, density is the amount of matter within a given amount of space. water has the density of 1.0 gram per milliliter whereas the mercury has a density of 13.6 grams per centimeter squared.

One reason for the differences in density between mercury and water is that the atomic mass of mercury is 200.59 grams per mole. The atomic mass of water is 18.0 grams per mole. This is because mercury has a larger nucleus than hydrogen or water.

Additionally, there are strong inter-molecular forces (hydrogen bonds) between water molecules. hydrogen molecules do not stack upon one another as nicely as mercury atoms. Thus, there is additional empty spaces between the water molecules leading to its lower mass per volume(density)

Is this example of a direct proportion or an inverse proportion?

Answer:

Inverse proportion occurs when one value increases and the other decreases. For example, more workers on a job would reduce the time to complete the task. They are inversely proportional.

C. Phosphate is the non renewable resource found in the state of Florida.

<u>Explanation:</u>

There are so many things made from the non renewable resource, phosphate found in the state of Florida.

It is used in the large scale preparation of fertilizers, that is supplied to the world wide farmers and small amount of the phosphate is  utilized to manufacture some of the supplements like soft drinks, tooth paste and vitamins.

Both gas and oil are  also non-renewable, since it takes an ample amount of time  to regenerate.
