Answer:

d. may melt if heat is transferred to it from hot mantle rock rising up into the crust.

Explanation:

Hot, solid rock in the Earth's crust is a solid outer region of the Earth, Underneath the Earth Structure lies the mantle which is composed of solid rocks especially granite and basalt. The mantle is very hot and may melt if heat is transferred to it from hot mantle rock rising up into the crust therefore forming a molten magma. It may even be hotter (and not cooler as it was stated in the option A which makes it the wrong answer) than the surface lava because of the pressure of the overlying rock. As such, This effect is seen when a volcanic eruption occurs.

Which of the following happens when chlorine forms an ion?
Jlenok [28]

What  happens  when  chlorine  form  an ion  is that  it gains an electron and  has  an octet  in its  outer shell  ( answer  A)


<u><em> Explanation</em></u>

<u><em> </em></u>Chlorine is  is in atomic  number  17  in periodic table.

The electron configuration  of chlorine  is    1S2 2S2 2P6 3S2 3P5   or[Ne]3S2 3p5  or  2.8.7.

chlorine therefore  has 7 valence electron therefore it  gain  1 electron  to form Cl- ( ion)

Cl- has  8  electron in its outer  shell (  it  obeys  octet  rule  of eight valence in outer shell.

A group of students are measuring how the acceleration of a mass will change due to a force.
Fudgin [204]

The graph of the plot of acceleration against force is a straight line graph. Option B

<h3>What is the relationship between force and acceleration?</h3>

From the Newton's second law of motion we can derive that; F = ma

F= mass

a = acceleration.

This implies that the acceleration and the mass of a body has a linear relationship. We could then assert that the force is directly proportional to the acceleration with the mass being the constant in the equation.

As such, the force that is imparted to the body is what determines the acceleration and the both increases or decreases linearly. Thus the graph of the plot of acceleration against force is a straight line graph. Option B
