Answer:

Krypton is a noble gas, so it was difficult for chemists to find it, as though it was a secret.

Explanation:

Krypton (₃₆Kr), an element with atomic number 36, belongs to group 18 on the periodic table of elements. This group is a specific one - it's made up of elements known as noble gases. Besides krypton, these elements are: helium, neon, argon, xenon, and radon. All noble gases were characterized relatively late compared to other elements. They all conduct electricity, fluoresce, and are odorless and colorless. Besides that, they have very low chemical reactivity. Because of their stability, they are often used to maintain a safe, constant environment. As krypton shares all of these characteristics, it was difficult for chemists to find it. That's why it was most likely given that name.

Friction is the _________ of one surface or object rubbing against another.
babunello [35]
Friction is the resistance to motion of one object moving relative to another. It is not a fundamental force, like gravity or electromagnetism. Instead, scientists believe it is the result of the electromagnetic attraction between charged particles in two touching surfaces.
