Answer:

Mountainous roads are winding and gently sloping in order to reduce the effect of steepness which causes more downward gravitational pull to the vehicles on it. A steeper sloped road would slow the car down to a greater extent that an gently sloping one.

Which metal in Period 5 is very reactive and has two valence electrons in each atom? rubidium (Rb) strontium (Sr) zirconium (Zr)

vladimir1956 [14]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

Strontium (Sr)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The condition given in statement is the presence of two valence electron. Hence, first we found the electronic configuration of given atoms as follow;

Rubidium [Kr] 5s¹

Strontium [Kr] 5s²

Zirconium [Kr] 4d² 5s²

Silver [Kr] 4d¹⁰ 5s¹

From above configurations it is cleared that only Strontium and Zirconium has two electrons in its valence shell.

We also know that s-block elements are more reactive than transition elements due to less shielding effect in transition elements hence, making it difficult for transition metals to loose electrons as compared to s-block elements. Therefore, we can conclude that Strontium present in s-block with two valence electrons is the correct answer.

Answer:

It is c

Explanation:

This is due, for example, to the fact that when the Earth is closer to the Sun in its elliptical orbit it orbits faster, while when it is further away it orbits slower, averaging to a value equivalent to that of a circular orbit.
Earth has seasons because our planet's axis of rotation is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees relative to our orbital plane – the plane of Earth's orbit around the sun.
While the Earth spins through space it stays almost up right on its axis, although as it spins through space it gives us seasons. One hemisphere, when faced directly to the sun has Summer, meanwhile the other the has Winter. Later on the hemispheres have Autumn and Spring.
