Answer:
Carbon (C)
Explanation:
Carbon is the only nonmetal there and covalent bonds happen between two nonmetal atoms
Th correct answer is option C. Calling can be hazardous because it also attracts parasites and predators.
The mating call is used by the males to attract females for sexual reproduction. By using vocal sounds males are not only making themselves attractive to females, they are also making themselves vulnerable to predators.
Thus the mating call can have a disastrous effect on the survival of the species.
1. The reaction for this would be:
Sn + 4 HNO₃ → SnO₂ + 4 NO₂ + 2 H₂O
The first observation would be bubbling of the solution and brown acrid smoke is produced due to the presence of NO₂ gas. Another observation would be the presence of a white solid which is SnO₂.
2. Heating was required to get rid of the H₂O. When all moisture is gone, you weigh the sample. Afterwhich, you further heat it to get ride of the oxygen. By doing this, you would know the individual mass of each element. Then, you can solve for the empirical formula of the oxide of tin.
Answer: I believe the correct answer would be A.
