Answer:
D. Crystallization
Explanation:
Let's clarify the irrelevant terms first.
- unification: This term has nothing to do with chemistry at all
- lithification: When the problem mentions magma and lava, you might think that this term is related to the process here. However, 'lithification' <em>do </em>have a precise meaning in geology. It refers to the process where sediments collapses into one single rock under pressure, which has nothing to do with the process mentioned here.
Now, for 2 terms that might confuse you: 'solidification' and 'crystallization' these also has precise scientific definition
Solidification is defined the process where substances in <em>liquid</em> phase changes its phase to <em>solid</em>. On first glance, this answer might seems correct, and yes, it is correct for this question. But not the <em>most</em> correct.
The keyword here is
'the internal components will arrange its self in an organized pattern.'
Crystallization is a special case of Solidification where the atoms or molecules of liquid solidify by spontaneously arrange themselves in periodic, ordered, and organized pattern. It might or might not happen during solidification depending on cooling rate, viscosity of liquid, and other factors.
So, Crystallization is the most correct answer here.
Fluorine.
Because:- Atoms want to become stable, for an atom to become stable, they need 8 valence electrons. Since Fluorine has 7 valence electrons, it only needs one more electron to become stable and have an octet. An octet is when an atom/element has 8 valence electrons. Since Fluorine will need to gain an electron, it will have a negative charge, and become an anion.
Answer:
The Earth is shaped by many geological processes. ... Processes caused by forces from within the Earth are endogenous processes. Exo is a prefix meaning "out", and endo is a prefix meaning "in". Many exogenous (extraterrestrial) forces are caused by other bodies in the Solar System.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
B, H2O + Na The elements toward the bottom left corner of the periodic table are the metals that are the most active in the sense of being the most reactive. Lithium, sodium, and potassium all react with water,
Sulfur is a group six element in period 3 with atomic number 16 and an electronic configuration of 2:8:6. Therefore, to attain a stable configuration it requires to gain two electrons forming an ion with a charge of -2. The negative charge is due to the gaining of electrons.
