Which is responsible for the formation of rust on metals?(1 point)
Rainbow [258]

The correct answers about rusting, air pollution and products of water with rock are:

Option A. oxidation

Option D. Pollutants mix with air and water to make acid rain.

Option B. clay minerals and calcium carbonate

<h3>What is rusting?</h3>

Rusting is the process by which a metal especially reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere and water vapor to form a hydrated oxide of the metal known as hydrated iron (iii) oxide. This is known as rust.

The process is an oxidation process; option A.

<h3>How does air pollution impact chemical weathering?</h3>

Air pollution is the presence of substances in air known as pollutants which makes the air impure.

Air pollution impact chemical weathering  as the pollutants mix with air and water to make acid rain which weathers rocks; option D.

<h3>What products are produced when water reacts with sodium in rocks?</h3>

The reaction of water with sodium in rocks result in the formation of clay minerals and calcium carbonate also as limestone, marble or chalk; option B.

In conclusion, the presence of pollutants in air results in acid rain and hence rock weathering.

Which of the following pairs of elements could possibly be in the same group? X has a 1+ ion; Y has a 1- ion. X tends to form a
exis [7]
Let's eliminate these one by one.
The first pair would not be the same, as X would most likely be in group IA, and Y would be in group VIIA, because of their tendency to gain and lose electrons.
The second pair would also violate the same rule, but X would most likely be in group IIA, and Y would most likely be in group VIA.
The third pair would not be the same, as X is most likely in group VIIA, and since Y has eight valence electrons, it is most likely a noble gas.
The final pair has X with atomic number 15, making it phosphorous. Phosphorous wants to gain 3 electrons to have a full octet of 8 outer "valence" electrons, and Y would also like to gain 3 electrons. This means it is possible that the final pair would be in the same group.
