What does it happen in smallest scale?
You have to look for "DUPRE' EQUATION" which treat about 
"TWO-PHASE INTERFACIAL FORCEs". 
At boundary surface between two aggregation phases, you may attribute upper energy level to molecules standing at the boundary zone. So, it has to define INTERFACIAL FORCEs WHICH ACT TO REMODEL SHAPE AND EXTENSION OF MEETING PHASEs. 
In your case, Water's Droplet is a liquid phase surrounded by Air (e.g. gas phase) and Interfacial Forces act to dominate Boundary-Surface. 
Mathematically, smallest possible Surface comes to SPHERICAL SHAPE.

Classify each element as a metal, nonmetal, or semimetal. br in cr ca drag the appropriate items to their respective bins. view

goldenfox [79]

Below is the distribution of given elements and additional elements in their respective bins.

Iron, Magnesium, Aluminium, Calcium, Chromium and Indium are classified as Metals due to their hardness, conduction of current and heat, Solid state, formation of metallic bonding and prefers to form cations e.t.c

Oxygen, Neon and Bromine are classified as non-metals. Non-metals are mostly gases except for Bromine. They are highly volatile and prefers to form anions.

Semimetals are those metals which have both properties of metals and non-metals and are also called as metalloids.

A newly discovered element, Z, has two naturally occurring isotopes. 90.3 percent of the sample is an isotope with a mass of 267

kirill115 [55]

Ok so, remember that the average atomic mass is what is seen on the periodic table. It is the average mass of all of the isotopes with their frequency taken into account. What you need to do is add the products of the masses and frequencies Just like this:

0.903*267.8 + 0.097*270.9
When you add it the result is what you are looking for

Which of the following correctly describes the relationship between speed and velocity?

rodikova [14]

Speed and velocity is a scalar and vector quantity of a similar parameter, respectively. They both refer to how fast an object moves. However, the speed only has to do with the magnitude. The velocity takes into account the sign which indicates the direction of the movement. For example, the value is -5 m/s. The speed is 5 m/s, but the velocity is 5 m/s moving downwards because the negative sign denotes downward movement or movement to the left.
