Hardness is a measure of how resistant solid matter is to various kinds of permanent shape change when a force is applied Macroscopic hardness is generally characterized by strong intermolecular bonds, but the behavior of solid materials under force is complex; therefore, there are different measurements of hardness: scratch hardness, indentation hardness, and rebound hardness. Hardness is dependent on ductility, elastic stiffness, plasticity, strain, strength, toughness, viscoelasticity, and viscosity. Common examples of hard matter are ceramics, concrete, certain metals, and super hard materials, which can be contrasted with soft matter.

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above the first option. In a polar covalent bond, the distribution of common electrons are not shared evenly due to a greater positive charge from one atom’s nucleus. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

705 over 224 divide by 224 over 224

dybincka [34]

(705/224) / (224/224)
224/224 = 1.
So (705/224) / (224/224) = (705/224) / (1/1).
Dividing 2 fractions is equal to multiplying the first fraction by the inverse of the second:
(705/224) / (1/1) = (705/224) * (1/1) = 705/224.

Hope this Helps! :)
