Answer:

Rocks can be simply defined as the aggregates of various minerals, and these broken rock fragments and mineral grains are formed from the weathering of rocks. Weathering refers to the breakdown of rocks due to the occurrence of various geological processes that are initiated by the agents such as wind, water and ice.

The weathering process leads to the formation of sediments of variable size and shape, and these are such as pebbles, sand, silt and clay particles.

A molecule of acetone and a molecule of propyl aldehyde are both made from 3 carbon atoms, 6 hydrogen atoms, and 1 oxygen atom.
TEA [102]

Explanation:

The structures of both acetone and propanal are shown below:

In the formula of propanal there is -CHO functional group at the end.

In acetone -CO- group is present in the middle that is on the second carbon.

The molecular formula is C3H6O.

Both have same molecular formula but different structural formulas.

Answer:Light bounces off of the mirror and then appears to come from behind the mirror.

Explanation:Plane mirrors form images that are virtual, upright and the same size and shape as the object it is reflecting.

When rays of light from the object hits a plane mirror they bounces off the mirror,that is they undergo reflection, and appear to originate from behind the mirror, resulting to the formation of a virtual image.

The image formed appears to be behind the plane in which the mirror lies. A virtual image is an image that is formed at a location from which the rays of light appear to come from. The image can not be formed on a screen..

Refer to the periodic table tool and write the electron configurations of the following elements in both long and short terms
ahrayia [7]

Answer:-

Carbon

[He] 2s2 2p2

1s2 2s2 2p2.

potassium

[Ar] 4s1.

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1

Explanation:-

For writing the short form of the electronic configuration we look for the nearest noble gas with atomic number less than the element in question. We subtract the atomic number of that noble gas from the atomic number of the element in question.

The extra electrons we then assign normally starting with using the row after the noble gas ends. We write the name of that noble gas in [brackets] and then write the electronic configuration.

For carbon with Z = 6 the nearest noble gas is Helium. It has the atomic number 2. Subtracting 6 – 2 we get 4 electrons. Helium lies in 1st row. Starting with 2, we get 2s2 2p2.

So the short term electronic configuration is [He] 2s2 2p2

Similarly, for potassium with Z = 19 the nearest noble gas is Argon. It has the atomic number 18. Subtracting 19-18 we get 1 electron. Argon lies in 3rd row. Starting with 4, we get 4s1.

So the short electronic configuration is [Ar] 4s1.

For long term electronic configuration we must write the electronic configuration of the noble gas as well.

So for Carbon it is 1s2 2s2 2p2.

For potassium it is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1
