D. a compound can only be separated into its components by chemical means
They are also called the noble gases or inert gases. They
are virtually unreactive towards other elements or compounds. They are found in
trace amounts in the atmosphere. Their elemental form at room temperature is
colorless, odorless and monatomic gases. They also have full octet of eight
valence electrons in their highest orbitals so they have a very little tendency
to gain or lose electrons to form ions or share electrons with other elements
in covalent bonds.
The answer you need is B. Pollution. Have in mind that Caves contain carvings and depictions that are formed from acids running through the limestones of the cave. The sulfuric acid that helped form the Lechugilla caves come from pollution.I hope this info can help you
Answer:
B will give up two electrons to form bonds.
Explanation:
B has 12 electrons, it means that the electronic configuration of B is; 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2. The implication of this is that B must be an element of group 2 since it has an outermost electron configuration of ns2.
The elements of group 2 form ionic bonds by loss of two electrons. This implies that B will form bonds by loss of two electrons.
