Answer: C. Metals are found on the left side of the periodic table.
Explanation:
The periodic table contains vertical columns called as groups and horizontal rows called as periods.
Period 2 contains 8 elements which are lithium, beryllium , boron , carbon, nitrogen, oxygen , fluorine and neon. Only Lithium and beryllium are metals.
Group 18 contains all the noble gases which are all non metals.
Metals are the elements which loose electrons easily and form positive ions. Non-metals are the elements which can gain electrons easily and form negative ions.
Metals are present on left side of the periodic table and as we move to right side of the periodic table , the metallic character decreases and thus non metals are found on the right side of the periodic table.
Answer:
It is formed by a horizontal number line, called the x-axis, and a vertical number line, called the y-axis.
Explanation:
Answer:
The volume of the block is equal to the volume of water displaced by the block.
Explanation:
Volume refers to the amount of space occupied by a given object (in this case the block). When an object such as the block is immersed in water, it displaces its own volume of water. This volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of the block. Hence we can write;
Final Volume of water - Initial Volume of water= Water Displaced = Volume of the block
Recall that the density of a body is given by;
Density= mass/volume
If we obtain the volume of the block by measuring the volume of water displaced by the block, then we weigh the block using a weighing balance, we can obtain the density of the block easily from the relationship shown above.
