Answer:

No because the statue is discolored from weathering.

Explanation:

Since the statue was already discolored, that means the substance has been acted upon by a process known as weathering .

Weathering is the breaking down of rocks or dissolving of rocks by the action of rain water, biological activities and temperatures changes. Weathering may be mechanical or chemical . Mechanical weathering live no changes in the overall chemical change of the weathered rock.

Chemical weathering usually occurs when rain water reacts with mineral constituent of rock to form a new minerals like clay and soluble salt. The Chemical changes can be more rapid if the rain water is slightly acidic. The rainwater in the presence of oxygen(oxidation),  because of it acidity may have caused the discoloration of the granite rock. Rain water will likely promotes weathering not the other way round

1. A chemical bond between metals and nonmetals; valence electrons are transferred ____.
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

1. Ionic bonding

2. Covalent bonding

3. Metallic bonding

Explanation:

Ionic bonding also referred to as electrovalent bonding is a kind of chemical bonding that involves the transfer of electrons between the valence shells of two elements with a large electronegativity difference usually a metal and a nonmetal.

For example an ionic bonding scenario might play out between a group one metal and a group seven halogen. While group one metals have one electron hindering their stability, group seven halogens need that one electron that could make them achieve this stability. It is this that causes them to come together in a way where the electron is transferred completely from the valence shell of the group 1 atom and accepted into the valence shell of the group 7 halogen.

Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons between atoms of comparable electronegativities. The electro negativity difference is not large enough to permit the total movement of the electrons and hence the electrons are then controlled by the nuclei of the two atoms

Between two metals, what we have is called the metallic bonding

I need help! how many moles are in 3.4*10^-7 grams of silicon dioxide, SiO2. I got 2.0^17 but I think it's wrong :(
blondinia [14]
Molar mass SiO2 = 28 + 32 = 60 

<span>so moles sand = 3.4 x 10-7 / 60</span>
