They have a negative oxidation number because nonmetals gain electrons, thus making them negatively charged ions (anions). Metals become cations and have a positive charge because they lose electrons.
Answer:
6.75m/s
Explanation:
using the second equation of motion, the time is calculated.
and with the formula a= (v - u)/t
where a is acceleration but in this case it's deceleration (and should be negated as you solve it ) .
v is final velocity
u is initial velocity
t is time taken
Observing is commenting on what you see e.g: It is raining.
Inferring is drawing conclusions from observations for example you see the road is wet so you might infer that it rained last night.
