I. Because they're a limited resource
2 Because they're a cause of carbon pollution.
Answer:
A full moon occurs when the Moon appears as a complete circle in the sky.
Explanation:
- We see it as a full orb because the whole of the side of the Moon facing the Earth is lit up by the Sun's rays.
- The moon shows no visible light of its own, so we only see the parts of the moon that are lit up by other objects.
Answer:K2X
Explanation: Valency can be defined as the combining power of an element. It is the valency that dictates the value an element will have when writing a chemical formula for its compound.
MgX is a compound of magnesium and an element X. The valency of magnesium in most of its compound is +2. Now for the 2 to have been absent in the chemical formula, this shows that the element X itself have a valency if -2 for the valencies of both to have canceled out.
Now considering the element potassium, it is an alkaline metal belonging to group 1 of the periodic table. Hence, it is expected that it has a valency of +1
Forming a compound with element X means there would be an exchange of valencies between the two. We have established that x has a valency of -2. The formula of the compound thus formed by exchanging the valencies of both element would be K2X
D. dormancy is the correct answer
Answer: The correct option is A,
--> a.) Transition metals have partially filled d subshells.
Explanation:
Transition elements are all metals of economic importance. They are found in the d- lock of the periodic table between group 2 and 3. They occupy three rows, with ten elements in each row. The term 'transition metals' refers only to an element which has PARTIALLY filled d orbitals. Typical example of transition metals include iron (Fe).
They have partially filled 3d orbitals which are responsible for the special properties of the metals. These include:
--> Physical properties: the transition metals have high boiling and melting points. They are hard, dense and lustrous. They are also good conductors of heat and electricity.
--> Chemical reactivity: In the s- block and p-block, the chemical properties of the elements in the same period vary, often quite markedly, from left to right. This does not happen with the transition metals because electrons are added progressively to the inner d-orbitals.
--> Variable oxidation states: they have variable oxidation states because 3d electrons are available for bond formation.
