The principle of original horizontality states that all rock layers were initially deposited horizontally.  The answer must be They were deposited horizontally and then shifted by a geologic event because they other choices all indicate that the the rocks were initially deposited in a way that was not horizontal.


Hope this helps!!

5. An element whose highest occupied s sublevel and a nearby d sublevel <br> contain electrons
Mumz [18]

Answer:

                    Transition Element

Explanation:

                     Transition elements are defined as those elements which can form at least one stable ion and has partially filled d-orbitals. They are also characterized by forming complex compounds and having different oxidation states for a single metal element.

                      Transition metals are present between the metals and the non metals in the periodic table occupying groups from 3 to 12. There general electronic configuration is as follow,

                                                   (n-1)d ¹⁻¹⁰ns ¹⁻²

The general configuration shows that for a given metal, the d sublevel will be in lower energy level as compared to corresponding s sublevel. For example,

Scandium is present in fourth period hence, its s sublevel is present in 4rth energy level so its d sublevel will be present in 3rd energy level respectively.

Hence, we can conclude that for transition metals the electron are present in highest occupied s sublevel and a nearby d sublevel .

In which of the following substances does sharing of electrons between two atoms occur?
sammy [17]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • PO4∧-3

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

Phosphate ion has covalent bond. As we known , covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons between two atoms. As in this case, P form three single covalent bond with three oxygen atoms and one double covalent bond with one oxygen . The formal charges is -3.

While He is present in mono atomic form

NaI have ionic bond which is formed by donating electrons from one atom and other accept.

Ag is present independently with no other atom.
