Answer:
Limestone is easily eroded from above and below.
Explanation:
The Florida bedrock is largely made of limestone. Because limestone is a rock that is easily eroded, the landscape of a great part of Florida is classified as karstic.
Karstic landscapes are dotted by sinkholes, underground rivers, caves, and springs. The more acidic the groundwater or rainwater, the faster and more easily the limestone will succumb to erosion.
In this way, underground rivers, streams, runoff, rain, and underground water pooled in caves have all carved out gaps and caverns in the weak limestone bedrock.
Answer:
A jump occurs when a core electron is removed.
Explanation:
A jump in ionization energy occurs when a core electron is removed. A large jump in the ionization energy easily be seen from the electronic configuration of an element.
For Beryllium, the electronic configuration of is 1s2 2s2.
There are two valence electrons in the outermost shell hence the ionization energy data for beryllium will show a sudden jump or increase in going from the second to the third ionization energy owing to the removal of a core electron
The electronic configuration for Nitrogen is 1s2 2s2 2p3. Five valence electrons are found in the outermost shell so the ionization energy data for nitrogen will show a sudden jump or increase in going from the fifth to sixth ionization energy because of the removal of a core electron
The electronic configuration of oxygen is 1s2 2s2 2p4. There are six valence electrons hence ionization energy for oxygen atom will show a sudden jump or increase in going from the sixth to the seventh ionization energy because of the removal of a core electron
The electronic configuration of Lithium is 1s2 2s1
There is one valence electron in its outermost shell so its ionization energy data will show a sudden jump or increase in going from the first to the second ionization energy because of the removal of a core electron.
Answer:
Compound consist of molecules that are identical, this molecules are made up of atoms of two or more elements. An element is identified based on the atomic property of the element. Water as a compound is composed of 2 Hydrogen atom to 1 oxygen atom and the molecule is H2O.
Explanation:
1. Sedimentation and decantation cannot be used for all types of mixtures.
Decantation is a separation technique in which is used to separate immiscible liquids or mixtures containing liquid and solids within them.
In decantation, gravity is used to bring the denser materials to settle at the bottom.
For homogenous mixtures, it is not possible to use decantation. A solution of sugar and water will not decant.
2. Yes, mass of an object reduces the settling time of such object in a mixture.
The higher the mass, the faster the rate of settling. Also, as we know, mass is directly proportional to density. A body with a high density will settle faster in solution.
D. radioactive isotopes are one of the environmental waste products of nuclear energy.
