In "the Rockpile" by James Baldwin, the descriptive detail that hints at the symbolic meaning of the rockpile is this: Sliding on the slippery rock.

The Rockpile” is a short story written by African American writer James Baldwin. It was first published in his 1965 collection Going to Meet the Man. The story follows two boys, Roy and his older brother John. The rock pile refers to a natural formation across the street from where the boys live.

Regarding the formula AI2 O3 which of the following is accurate

D. The subscript 2 indicates that two atoms of aluminum are present in the substance.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Actually, the formula of alumina is Al₂O₃

The subscript 2 tells us that there are 2 Al (Aluminum) atoms, and the subscript 3 says that there are 3 oxygen atoms, so D is the accurate statement.

Choice A is wrong as 3 is not the coefficient, and it is a subscript.

Choice B is wrong since the subscript 2 meant for the aluminium atoms, and not the oxygen atoms.

Finally, choice C is also wrong since the symbol Al refers to the metal aluminium, and not the oxygen.

The poem “Richard Cory” by Edwin Arlington Robinson explores how the theme of dissatisfaction and the mentality that “the grass

Ostrovityanka [42]

The two lines in this excerpt tht reflect those themes are:

"To make us wish that we were in his place. "

This line explains perfecty the mentality of “the grass is greener on the other side”. Because its explicitly saying "we" are wishing to be in someone else place, meaning people are never satisfied with their own situation; they always think others have it better.

"Went home and put a bullet through his head."

This phrase makes reference to the theme of dissatisfaction.
