Chemistry
1 answer:
vladimir1956 [14]3 years ago
4 0

Traditionally they include boron from group 3A, silicon and germanium in group 4A, aresnic and antimony in group 5A and tellurium from group 6A, although sometimes selenium, astatine, polonium and even bismuth have also been considered as metalloids. Typically metalloids are brittle and show a semi-metallic luster.

The six commonly recognised metalloids are boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, and tellurium. Five elements are less frequently so classified: carbon, aluminium, selenium, polonium, and astatine.

What is the likely impact of water's high specific heat on life on Earth?
valkas [14]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The high specific heat capacity of water means that it takes much more energy to raise the temperatures of water by one (1) degree than land. This means that on a hot sunny day, land temperatures would increase dramatically while ocean temperatures would only rise slightly. Conversely,  at night, the land cools rapidly while oceans cool slowly hence the temperatures drop slightly.

Crude oil may contain hundreds of different types of hydrocarbons. Some examples include: Butane(C4H10) Dodecane (C12H26) Octane
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Butane and benzene are both compounds. They contain multiple elements bonded together in a specific ratio. Kerosene and gasoline are mixtures because they are combinations of several compounds. Oxygen is an element because it is made up of only one type of atom.

Why would you not expect to find fossils in metamorphic and igneous rocks?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

igneous rocks are made from molten,and therefore rarely have fossils in them.Metamorphic rocks are squished,put under pressure,and get heated to the extreme,so it's very rare for fossils to survive in these conditions.

Which substance cannot be decomposed by a chemical change?
coldgirl [10]

Copper substance cannot be decomposed by a chemical change.

<h3 />
  • When heated, the copper to carbonate breaks down into copper to oxide. The copper carbonate, which is dark in colour, releases carbon dioxide as well.Because they are the simplest chemically, elements cannot be broken down by chemical processes.

  • Elements are those pure compounds that cannot be broken down by reactions, heating, electrolysis, or other common chemical processes. Examples of elements are oxygen, gold, and silver. Its makeup stays the same, though.  One instance of a physical change is melting.  A physical change is when a sample of matter experiences a change in some of its qualities but not in its identity. Water turns into water vapour when it is heated.
