Answer:

-Sulfur is a chemical element with the symbol S and atomic number 16. It is abundant, multivalent and nonmetallic. Under normal conditions, sulfur atoms form cyclic octatomic molecules with a chemical formula S₈. Elemental sulfur is a bright yellow, crystalline solid at room temperature.

(Atomic number: 16

Electron configuration: [Ne] 3s²3p⁴

Electrons per shell: 2,8,6

Electronegativity: 2.58)

-Calcium is the 20th element, with 20 protons. Since a stable atom has a net charge of 0, we must have 20 electrons.

-Carbon is a chemical element with the symbol C and atomic number 6. It is nonmetallic and tetravalent—making four electrons available to form covalent chemical bonds. It belongs to group 14 of the periodic table. Carbon makes up only about 0.025 percent of Earth's crust.

(Symbol: C

Atomic mass: 12.0107 u

Atomic number: 6

Electrons per shell: 2, 4

Electron configuration: [He] 2s22p2

Electronegativity: 2.55)

Why does the earth rotate
boyakko [2]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Your answer would be A because Earth is formed from cold gases collapsing due to gravity. The Solar System was formed when a huge amount of dust and gas began to collapse under its own gravity, and as the cloud collapse it started to spin causing the material within the cloud to gather into a swirl and then formed into planets and as the planets are formed they kept this spinning motion.
