Answer:
Mercury has a relatively high vapour pressure and the highest volatility of any metal, vapourizing to become a colourless, odourless gas. The metal is a fair conductor of electricity, but a poor conductor of heat. Mercury's atomic number is 8.
Table salt is sodium chloride mixed with small<span> amount of </span>potassium iodide (KI)<span>, </span>sodium iodide (NaI)<span> or </span>sodium iodate (NaIO₃)<span>.
Atomic level - sodium chloride (NaCl) has crystal cubic structure (</span>lattice-type arrangement)<span> with ionic bonds. Sodium is cation with charge 1+ and chlorine is an anion with charge 1-.
Macroscopic level - table salt is c</span>olorless crystal, soluble in water with high melting and boiling temperature..
The correct answer is option d, that is, colder and denser.
The surface currents refer to the currents at the surface of the water, to a few hundred meters deep, while deep currents refer to the currents when the density increases to a greater extent.
The surface current takes place close to the surface and move horizontally. This kind of currents are caused by global winds, an example of surface current is Gulf Stream. On the other hand, deep current takes place in the ocean and is affected by the density of water, temperature, and salinity. An example is Antarctica Bottom Water. In comparison to surface currents, deep currents are colder and denser.
