Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A metal which has the largest size and the most valence electrons would have the highest conductivity because the larger is the size of a metal the more freely electrons can move in it. Hence, the metal can conduct electricity.

If the atom is smaller in size then the electrons will be tightly held around the nucleus and hence they won't be able to move freely. Therefore, they will not conduct electricity.

Thus, we can conclude that the atom with the largest radius and the most valence electrons would have the highest conductivity.

Answer:

We also need the nitrogen intake

Explanation:

The nitrogen balance is the difference between the nitrogen intake and nitrogen excreted. If this calculation is positive, the body grow; if it is negative, the body is decreased.

A balance and a graduated cylinder are used to determine the density of a liquid sample. The sample has a mass of 14.0 g and a v

mylen [45]

Answer:

Density = 7 g/mL

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a sample, m = 14 g

Volume of the sample, V = 2 mL

We need to find the density of the liquid sample. We know that the density of an object is given by :

$d=\dfrac{m}{V}\\\\d=\dfrac{14\ g}{2\ mL}\\\\d=7\ g/mL$

So, the density of the liquid sample is 7 g/mL.
