Group 12 transition metals are diamagnetic. They behave properties that distinguish them. They naturally have twelve electrons hence their outermost shell is fully filled.
Transition metals have high densities which increases down the group. However, the increase in density of transition elements of group 12 varies with temperature at a rate that is quite different from other transition elements. Hence the differences in the value of melting points and density changes by only a very small amount as you come down group 12 compared to other groups of transition elements.
The potential energy of the reactants is 200J. From the energy diagram, the energy of the product formed is 350J; this means that, this reaction is an endothermic reaction, because it absorbs energy from its environment.<span />
If you double the mass of an object, you double the kinetic energy. If you double the speed of an object, the kinetic energy increases by four times. The word "kinetic" comes from the Greek word "kinesis" which means motion. Kinetic energy can be passed from one object to another in the form of a collision.
Most mercury forms in a sulfide ore called cinnabar, but mercury is also frequently found in small amounts in other ores. A common method for separating mercury from cinnabar is to crush the ore and then heat it in a furnace in order to vaporize the mercury. This vapor is then condensed into liquid mercury form.
Science is the study of the world and how it works through collecting data using the scientific method. Technology is the application of that scientific knowledge to create devices that solve problems and carry out tasks.
