Answer:

a. Selenium

Explanation:

Selenium is a non metal but though rarely, it is considered to be a metalloid.

(Metalloids are elements intermediate between metals and nonmetals and are known to have partly metallic and partly non metallic properties.)

Selenium is in group 16 of the periodic table below sulphur and has average properties of the group elements above and below it in the periodic table..

C. Magma from venus mantle erupted as lava.

Explanation:

A volcano is a land form which results from the eruption of molten rocks (lava) on the surface. Volcanic rocks are a special type of igneous rock that forms when molten rock cools and solidifies on the surface.

For a planet like Venus which is presently not active and little to no movement occurs within the plates, the volcanisim must have occurred when the planet was relatively young and it must have been millions of years ago.

It is widely believed that Venus was geologically active in times past. Mantle generated lava must have solidified on the surface in times past to have formed the volcano.

Evaluating other options:

Impact of space objects on Venus would lead to the formation of a crater which is a depression on the surface. The rock would be mostly metamorphic.

If water was ever present in Venus, they would have produced sedimentary rocks instead. The erosive power of water is not high enough to cut through the crust. Also, water would not aid the formation of volcanoes.

Heat is not enough to from volcanoes. Other factors are also in play.

1) x/9 + 16 = 5.

a) x/9 + 16 - 16 = 5 -16; subtraction.

b) x/9 = -11; simplifying.

c) x/9 · 9 = -11 · 9; multiplication.

d) x = -99; simplifying.

2) 5 · (2a - 3) = 60.

a) 10a - 15 = 60; distributive.

b) 10 - 15 + 15 = 60 + 15; addition.

c) 10a = 75; simplifying.

d) 10a ÷ 10 = 75 ÷ 10; commutative.

e) a = 7.5; simplifying.

3) 4 n + (7 + n) = 52.

a) 4n + (n + 7) = 52; commutative.

b) ( 4n + n) + 7 = 52; associative.

c) 5n + 7 = 52; combining.

d) 5n + 7 - 7 = 52 - 7; subtraction.

e) 5n = 45; simplifying.

f) 5n ÷ 5 = 45 ÷ 5; division.

g) n = 9; simplifying.

4) 8t - 3 · (4t + 2) = 16.

a) 8t - 12 t - 6 = 16; distributive.

b) -4 t - 6 = 16; combining.

c) - 4 t - 6 + 6 = 16 + 6; addition.

d) -4t = 22; simplifying.

e) -4t ÷ (-4) = 22 ÷ (-4); division.

f) t = -5.5; simplifying.

This is the question I found on internet.
