The vanishing of an ionic solid (like table salt) would be an example of acting like a solvent
Well, the density of the water is
so i believe that is what the question is asking for :)
<span>haha I used to think biology was so hard, i find it quite easy now.
Okay, so basically Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Diffusion is generally the movement of a gradient from higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Osmosis applies to water only, whereas diffusion, you have many types such as Passive transport [ movement of molecules from high- low, NO CELLULAR ENERGY needed! ] then you have faciliated diffusion ( basically uses a channel protein to allow big substances to go through the membrane : NO ENERGY needed]
OSMOSIS, the important thing to remember is that water ALWAYS flow towards the region with the higher concentration of the solute (ex: Salt is solute, water is solvent) solute is the thing that is being dissolved. Solvent is the one doing the dissolving. Hope this helped!</span>
Answer:
12 (Magnesium- Mg)
Explanation:
Looking at the four numbers, we have:
Magnesium, Silicon, Sulfur, and Chlorine.
We can eliminate two of the answers immediately just by looking at the periodic table.
Sulfur and Chlorine are on the nonmetal side of the periodic table. So that's <em>definitely</em> not it. That leaves Magnesium and Silicon.
Silicon is a Metalloid. Magnesium is an Alkaline earth Metal.
Metaloids are elements that have a mix of both<em> metal</em> and<em> nonmetal </em>properties (luster, how it feels, etc.). Since it's a MIX and Magnesium is just straight METAL-
We can say Magnesium has the most metallic properties.
hope this helps!!
