Oil spills happen when people make mistakes or are careless and cause an oil tanker (a ship that carries oil from one country or place to another) to leak oil into the ocean. ... Natural disasters (like hurricanes) may cause an oil spill, too, by flipping an oil tanker over, causing oil to come pouring out.

An oil spill is the release of a liquid petroleum hydrocarbon into the environment, especially the marine ecosystem, due to human activity, and is a form of pollution. The term is usually given to marine oil spills, where oil is released into the ocean or coastal waters, but spills may also occur on land.

plz mark me as brainliest :)

A release of oil into the environment, either leaked or discharged from a ship, lorry, truck etc
The major environmental impacts so far have come from normal activities, rather than catastrophic oil spills.
Or
an accidental release of oil into a body of water, as from a tanker, offshore drilling rig, or underwater pipeline, often presenting a hazard to marine life and the environment.

Two aircraft rivets, one of iron and the other of copper, are placed in a calorimeter that has an initial temperature of 10°c.
Dominik [7]

a) Copper is at a higher temperature, so the flow of heat will take place from copper to iron. Heat is a form of energy, which always flows from higher temperature to lower temperature.  

b) To determine the actual final temperature, the heat capacity of the calorimeter must be known. A calorimeter constant refers to a constant, which quantifies the heat capacity of a calorimeter. It may be determined by using a known amount of heat to the calorimeter and measuring the corresponding change in temperature of the calorimeter.

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

This question appears incomplete

Explanation:

There is no such element known as "Ballardium (Bu)" in the periodic table. However, there are elements with a bit of similarity in spellings and pronunciation such as Beryllium (Be) which is found in group 2 (meaning it is an alkali earth metal), Berkelium (Bk) which is an actinide (meaning it is radioactive) and Vanadium (V) which is found in group 5 of the periodic table (meaning it's a transition metal).
