Answer:
Explanation:
<u><em>What is the potential energy of a 2-kg book sitting on a shelf 2 meters above the ground?</em></u>
<em></em>
PE = MGH, that is, potential energy = mass x gravity x height.
2*2*9.8=
39.2 joules
<em><u>examples of metalloids :
</u>Boron,Silicon ,Germanium are some metalloids ...
<u>what they do:
</u>they are used to form the semiconductors and these semiconductors are used in modern computer technology like in circuits ,chips and computer based gadgets... :) <u>

Firstly, the chemical equation between the calcium metal and water will be:
Ca(s) + 2 H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq) + H₂(g)
We can see from the equation the bubbles of hydrogen gas which are formed during the reaction stick to the surface of the metal and hence calcium floats on water.
The other metal that will float on the water during the reaction is magnesium which have the same chemical behavior like calcium, we can illustrate that by the chemical equation:
Mg(s) + 2 H₂O(l) → Mg(OH)₂(aq) + H₂(g)
