Burning fossil fuels emits a number of air pollutants that are harmful to both the environment and public health. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions, primarily the result of burning coal, contribute to acid rain and the formation of harmful particulate matter.
However, the use of solar panels is environment friendly. Solar power is renewable at absolutely no cost to supply energy infinitely. Also, it is very low maintenance. Once installed, the solar power system can last twenty to thirty years.
Similarly wind (turbines) and water (hydroelectric power plants) are an endless source of energy without negatively affecting the environment.
Answer:
The increasing order of conductivity is O< Ge< Mn.
Explanation:
Electrical conductivity is defined as the measure of the ability of a material to conduct electrical current through it. The conductivity depends on the atomic and molecular structure of the material.
Metals are good conductors because they have a structure with many electrons with weak bonds, and this allows their movement instead non-metals have between four and eight valence electrons, which lack this tendency.
The conductivity increases in the periodic table from top to bottom and from right to left.
oxygen is a nonmetal therefore it is a bad conductor.
Germanium is a metalloid whose conductivity is greater than a nonmetal and worst than a metal.
Manganese is a metal,in this case, it is a good conductor.
A radioactive element has an unstable nucleus that emits particles in the form of alpha, beta, or gamma radiation. A stable element has a nucleus that does not emit such particles
Answer is: the amu of a sodium atom is 23.
The unified atomic mass unit (amu) is a standard unit of atom mass.
One unified atomic mass unit is approximately the mass of one nucleon (proton or neutron).
The unified atomic mass unit is equal 1.66·10⁻²⁷ kg.
n(p⁺) = 11; number of protons in sodium atom.
n(n°) = 12; number of neutrons of sodium atom.
n(p⁺ + n°) = 11 + 12.
n(p⁺ + n°) = 23; number of nucleons in sodium atom.
Not sure about any others but I believe 3 goes with B
