Answer;

Sulfur hexafluoride

Explanation;

-Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is an inorganic, colorless, odorless, and non-flammable greenhouse gas.

-Sulfur hexafluoride has an octahedral geometry, consisting of six fluorine atoms attached to a central sulfur atom. It is a hypervalent molecule.

-Being a nonpolar gas, it is poorly soluble in water but soluble in nonpolar organic solvents. It is generally transported as a liquefied compressed gas.

-It is used in the electrical industry as a gaseous dielectric medium for high-voltage circuit breakers, switchgear, and other electrical equipment, often replacing oil filled circuit breakers (OCBs) that can contain harmful PCBs.

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Mitosis

Explanation:

Mitosis is the process of cell division. In this process cells are split to create exact replicas of eachother. It is why we don't grow ears on our hands when they are injured. The hand cells are replicated to create more, so it heals correctly. In the Mitosis the two resulting daughter cells always have the same number of chromosomes from the parent cell. Their role is to maintain the same number of chromosomes in each cell division constant, which allows us to grow and self-maintain our bodies.
