Explanation:
a) Density is the amount of mass in a specific amount of volume
b) Some substances are less dense than water so will float and vice versa
c) The wooden plank has less density than water due to having larger volume and vice versa with the wooden block since volume and density are inversely proportional
II) (a) They are all metals
(b) water -> Compound
oxygen -> Element
Gold-> Element
Salt-> Compound
Answer:
Atomic radius decreases moving from left to right across a period.
Explanation:
When we move left to right across a period, the size of atoms generally decreases. It is because within the period the outer electrons are in same valence shell and the number of electrons and proton increases moving from left to right across the the period. It increases the effective nuclear charge resulting in the increased attraction of electron to the nucleus that causes the decreased radius of the atoms.
I can't answer this question without a figure. I've found a similar problem as shown in the first picture attached. When adding vectors, you don't have to add the magnitudes only, because vectors also have to factor in the directions. To find the resultant vector C, connect the end tails of the individual vectors.
<em>The red line (second picture) represents the vector C.</em>
