<h2>Answer:</h2>

The given statement is TRUE

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Sulfur oxides (SOx) are compounds of sulfur and oxygen molecules. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is the pre- dominant form found in the lower atmosphere. It is a colorless gas that can be detected by taste and smell. Scrubbers help to remove most of the sulfur oxides from the smoke stack exhaust of a power plant. In the scrubber, there is a water spray that produces a cloud of fine water droplets. The water is mixed with crushed limestone, which reacts with the sulfur and pulls it out of the exhaust

True. But it is not entirely fool proof.

The correct answer that explains similarities between metal and Metalloids as regards the question is They both conduct electricity

Metalloids can be regarded as elements that are similar to metals, this is because they posses valence orbitals which is described as highly delocalized over macroscopic volumes.

As a result of this they can serve as electrical conductors.

metalloids posses small energy gap which is located between the valence band as well as the conduction band, as a result of this they are considered as intrinsic semiconductors when compare to pure conductors like metal.
