It would be most similar to neon. it wouldn’t be sulfur because that’s in the same group as oxygen and has the same number of electrons. and carbon has less than that so the only one that makes sense is neon

If electrons are collectively compressed into a very small volume (e.g., within the core of a dying white dwarf star) where quan
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:  A degenerate pressure will generate a large force to repel further  compression.

Explanation: In the production of new stars from the core of old dying white dwarf stars, the inner parts of the star will experience contraction with the release of  heat , as they contract, their atoms will be  squeezed such that their electrons start to overlap, and because of the Pauli's exclusive principle which states that no two electrons can occupy same space, the electrons will begin to repel each other and an opposing pressure called degenerate pressure will create a force so that the electrons  cannot continually be crushed or overlap. With the limit of contraction, the outer parts of the star will expand and be repelled releasing the old stars called nebula  and creating space for the inner new stars to form.

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

A. to absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and use it to make sugar

Explanation:

Green plants with the help of their green coloring pigment called chlorophyll helps to absorb sunlight. This sunlight helps in the process Called photosynthesis in which plants manufacture food (sugar) using CO2(Carbon dioxide)and Water to give Oxygen and Sugar. The oxygen is released back into the atmosphere.

What are some chemical/physical properties that make calcium hazardous or useful? 50 points for this
Talja [164]
"Calcium's chemical properties are attributed to its location in group 2 of the periodic table. As an alkaline earth metal, it is a good reducing agent for preparing other metals, such as uranium and thorium. It reacts violently when placed in water, forming calcium hydroxide, more commonly known as lime. This is the reason why water that is high in calcium causes lime buildup on the interior of pipes. Calcium also reacts rapidly when exposed to air. It develops an oxide coating, which prevents the mass of calcium from corroding. If exposed to air at a high temperature, calcium burns to produce nitride. The most common calcium isotope is Calcium-40. It has an ionic radius of 0.099 nm, a standard potential of -2.87 volts and an ionization energy of 589.6 kJ per mole. Calcium compounds are important in a number of industries. Calcium oxide, for example, is used in high intensity lights. Calcium hydroxide is useful for breaking down wood and rocks".

"The calcium oxide, Ca(OH)2, has many applications in which the hydroxyl ion is necessary. In the process of calcium hydroxide quenching, the volume of blown out lime [Ca(OH)2] expends to double the initial quantity of quick lime (CaO), fact that makes it useful to break down rocks or wood".

"The quick lime is an excellent absorbent for the carbon dioxide, because it produces carbonate, which is very insoluble".

"The calcium silicate, CaSi, prepared in an electric oven from lime, silica and reducing carbonated agents, is useful as a steel-deoxidizing agent. Calcium carbide, CaC2, is produces when heating up a mixture of lime and carbon at 3000ºC in an electric oven and it is an acetylate which produces acetylene by hydrolysis. The acetylene is the base material of a great number of important chemicals for the organic industrial chemistry".

"The pure calcium carbonate occurs in two crystalline forms: calcite, hexagonal shaped, which possesses birrefringent properties, and aragonite, rhombohedric. The natural carbonates are the most abundant calcium minerals. The Iceland spar and the calcite are essentially pure carbonate forms, whilst the marble is impure and much more compact, reason why it can be polished. It’s very demanded as construction material. Although the calcium carbonate is very little soluble in water, it is quite soluble if the water contains dissolved carbon dioxide, for in these solutions it forms bicarbonate when dissolving. This fact explains the cave formation, where the lime stone deposits have been in contact with acid waters".
