Sulfur is an element of the periodic table that is not considered a metalloid.
<h3>What is sulfur?</h3>
Sulfur is a chemical element of the periodic table that has the following characteristics:
- Atomic number 16
- S symbol
- Sulfur is classified as a nonmetal
- It has a yellow color
<h3>What are metalloids?</h3>
Metalloids are a set of chemical elements of the periodic table that are characterized by having an intermediate behavior between metals and non-metals, in terms of ionization energies and binding properties.
It is not easy to distinguish them from true metals. They conduct electrical current better than non-metals, but they are not good conductors like metals. In addition, they are usually very varied in their shape and coloration.
The list of metalloids includes the following elements:
- Boron (B)
- Silicon (Si)
- Germanium (Ge)
- Arsenic (As)
- Antimony (Sb)
- Tellurium (Te)
- Polonium (Po)

<span>Tf is the freezing point of the solution(the solvent plus solute).
T*f is the freezing point of the pure solvent(without solute)
i is the van't Hoff factor.It is approximately the number of particles in solution that are made for each particle of the solute that is placed into solution.Therefore, for nonelectrolytes, i = 1.
Kf is the freezing point depression constant.For water, Kf = 1.86 Degree C/m, or 1.86 Degree C.kg/mol.
Tf is -1.58 Degree C</span>
Food molecules contain biochemical energy which is made available by a process called respiration.
Respiration is the process within cells by which living things break down food chemicals in their bodies and use them as a source of energy.
The proteins, lipids and polysaccharides that make up most of the food we eat must be broken down into smaller molecules before our cells can use them either as a source of energy or as building blocks for other molecules. This process is named catabolism and occurs in 3 stages.
Stage 1 is the enzymatic breakdown of food molecules in the digestion process into their monomer subunits- amino acids, glucose and glycerol.
Stage 2 is the process of glycolysis where each molecule of glucose is converted to pyruvate.
Stage 3 is production of ATP, the form of energy needed by the body to function. This stage takes place in the mitochondria of the cells. ATP is produced from conversion of pyruvate to acetylCoA in a process called the Citric Acid Cycle.
Hearing loss due to sound energy damaging the nerve cells in the inner ear. Many animals behavior is influenced by sound energy. They learn to associate events with sounds, so they run when something crunches in the dry grass (might be a coyote), but won't be bothered by the sound of a waterfall. Mood is affected by sound energy. A wine glass can break with sound energy, if the frequency matches the resonant frequency of the wine glass and the amplitude is great enough (one Mythbusters show featured a professional singer who broke a wine glass with his voice without any amplification).
