Answer is: Far greater than 118 because elements combine in various ways.

Number of compounds is more than 30 millions.

A chemical compound is a substance composed of many identical molecules.

Element bonded to an identical chemical element is not a compound.

For example, emerald (beryl) is chemical compound (beryllium aluminium cyclosilicate) with the chemical formula Be₃Al₂(SiO₃)₆.  

Other example, molecule carbon(IV) oxide (CO₂) is made of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms bonded with covalent bonds.

Element is pure substance is made of only one type of atom (element) or only one type of molecule, it has definite and constant composition with distinct chemical properties.

The estimated number of compounds formed by the elements in the periodic table is far greater than 118 because elements can combine in various ways. Compounds are substance composed of more than one element held together by chemical bonds. Additionally, they can be converted to a different chemical composition by interaction with another compound via a chemical reaction.

Answer:

D. Many, many years of deposition

Explanation:

The layers of the rocks in one region of the parks are smooth and distinct, which are evidence of many, many years of deposition.

The layers on the rocks are because of different deposition of sediments. Different sediments deposited over the rocks through wind, water and ice over the ages.

Hence, the correct answer is D.
