The correct answer is option B, that is, hypothesis.  

A hypothesis refers to an anticipated illustration for an occurrence. It refers to a proposed illustration or a supposition made on the groundwork of inadequate proof as an initiation point for further investigation. In order for a hypothesis to be a scientific hypothesis, the scientific method needs that one can examine it.

Types of Bonds can be predicted by calculating the difference in electronegativity.

If, Electronegativity difference is,

 

                Less than 0.4 then it is Non Polar Pure Covalent

                

                Between 0.4 and 1.7 then it is Polar Covalent 

            

                Greater than 1.7 then it is Ionic

 

For Br and Br,

                    E.N of Bromine      =   2.96

                    E.N of Bromine      =   2.96

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference             0.00         (Non Polar/Pure Covalent)

 

For N and O,

                    E.N of Oxygen      =   3.44

                    E.N of Nitrogen     =   3.04

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference             0.40           (Non Polar/Pure Covalent)

 

For P and H,

                    E.N of Hydrogen       =   2.20

                    E.N of Phosphorous  =   2.19

                                                              ________

                    E.N Difference                  0.01          (Non Polar/Pure Covalent)

 

For K and O,

                    E.N of Oxygen          =   3.44

                    E.N of Potassium      =   0.82

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference                2.62              (Ionic)

What are the major sources of crude oil<br>​
timurjin [86]

Explanation:

Crude oil is a naturally occurring fossil fuel - meaning it comes from the remains of dead organisms.

Crude oil is made up of a mixture of hydrocarbons - hydrogen and carbon atoms.

It exists in liquid form in underground reservoirs in the tiny spaces within sedimentary rocks. Or it can be found near the surface in oil sands.

It is often found alongside natural gas and saline water.

Crude oil is often interchangeably referred to as petroleum. This is because petroleum includes both the unrefined crude oil as well as refined petroleum products.

It is non-renewable - once it’s gone it’s gone and cannot be easily replaced.

Are these radiation, conduction, or convection?
irakobra [83]
Hey! 1) Convection [Warm water is less dense, so it rises.] 2) Conduction [The metal skewer is heated by the fire, and it is directly touching your hand. The metal skewer transfers heat to your hand through conduction.] 3) Conduction [The rock is directly touching you, so it transfers heat to you through conduction.] 4) Convection [Convection causes weather systems because hot air sinks and cold air sinks] 5) Convection [The hot air rises because it is less dense while the cold air sinks because it is denser.] ~Hope this helped~

Which atom gives up its electrons most easily?<br><br> THE ANSWER IS “Rb”
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

cesium

In particular, cesium (Cs) can give up its valence electron more easily than can lithium (Li). In fact, for the alkali metals (the elements in Group 1), the ease of giving up an electron varies as follows: Cs > Rb > K > Na > Li with Cs the most likely, and Li the least likely, to lose an electron
