Answer: A. an electron
<u>Beta particles are electrons or positrons (electrons with positive electric charge or antielectrons).</u> Beta decay is a type of radioactive decay in which a beta ray is emitted from an atomic nucleus.
<u>Beta decay occurs when, in an unstable nucleus with too many protons or too many neutrons, one of the protons or neutrons transforms into the other.</u> In beta minus decay, a neutron is broken down into a proton, an electron, and an antineutrino (the neutrino antiparticle, meaning it has an opposite charge to the neutrino). In beta decay plus, a prototype breaks down into a neutron, a positron and a neutrino.
This is covalent network type of solid.
For example, silicon dioxide (SiO₂) is covalent network solid with covalent bonding.
Covalent network solid is a chemical compound (or element) in which the atoms are bonded by covalent bonds in a continuous network extending throughout the material.
Silicon(IV) oxide has continuous three-dimensional network of SiO₂ units and diamond has sp3 hybridization.
This solids do not have free electrons so they are good insulators.
They have strong covalent bonds, so they melt at extremely high temperature.
Other examples are quartz, diamond, and silicon carbide.

Answer:
Volume of the sulfuric acid (25cm³), same mass of each metal (1g)
Explanation:
In an experiment, the CONTROL VARIABLE also known as constant is the variable that is kept unchanged for all groups in an experiment. This is done in order not to influence the outcome of the experiment.
In this case, students are trying to investigate the reactivity of four different metals. They added 1 g of each metal to 25cm³ of sulfuric acid and recorded the temperature change. Based on the explanation of control variable above, the VOLUME OF SULFURIC ACID (25cm³) and the MASS OF EACH METAL (1g) are the CONTROL VARIABLES because they are the same or unchanged in this experiment.
