No. Solids can't undergo convection,

Explanation:

Convection is heat removal by movement hot matter as exposed to cold matter bure to density differences in the expression of the gravity field. or heat transfer within moving currents.Convection works because hotter quicker moving molecules have a lower frequency and consequently rise to the surface. In a solid the molecules can't move corresponding to each other they can only vibrate

 <span>No. Solids can't undergo convection, the reason is that convection works because moving molecules which are hotter and faster have a lower density and therefore rise to the surface. With a solid now, the molecules don't move they can only vibrate.

Therefore solids conduct.</span>

Yes I believe in god.I believe in him because there is huge gaps in science that can not be solved. I also believe in him because I was also taught about him when I was little by family & my mom so I grew up learning about him which made my beliefs stronger of course.

??? True or false. An element can only exist as an individual atom.
KengaRu [80]
I think it's false because Oxygen is diatomic so it's found as O2 which means that it has two atoms of itself.

On heating from low temperature at 1 atm of pressure which substance is most likely to sublime rather than melt?
cluponka [151]
Since the choices are not given, I can't give an exact answer. Sublimation is the physical change occurring from solid to gas. This is very rare because the molecular arrangement of a solid and gas are opposite to each other. Thus, it depends on the properties of the substance. For example, napthalene could sublime at room temperature.

Name two examples of deposition.
Rashid [163]
The reverse of deposition is sublimation and hence sometimes deposition is called desublimation. One example of deposition is the process by which, in sub-freezing air, water vapor changes directly to ice without first becoming a liquid.
