Answer:
Released into the atmosphere
Explanation:
The carbon that the plant had been storing when it was alive, would be released upon death into the soil
Answer:
this lesson is the third in a three-part series about the nucleus, isotopes, and radioactive decay. The first lesson, Isotopes of Pennies, deals with isotopes and atomic mass. The second lesson, Radioactive Decay: A Sweet Simulation of Half-life, introduces the idea of half-life.
By the end of the 8th grade, students should know that all matter is made up of atoms, which are far too small to see directly through a microscope. They should also understand that the atoms of any element are alike but are different from atoms of other elements. Atoms may stick together in well-defined molecules or they could be packed together in large arrays.
For students, understanding the general architecture of the atom and the roles played by the main constituents of the atom in determining the properties of materials now becomes relevant. Having learned earlier that all the atoms of an element are identical and are different from those of all other elements, students now come up against the idea that, on the contrary, atoms of the same element can differ in important ways. (Benchmarks for Science Literacy, p. 79.)
In this lesson, students will be asked to consider the case of when Frosty the Snowman met his demise (began to melt). The exercise they will go through of working backwards from measurements to age should help them understand how scientists use carbon dating to try to determine the age of fossils and other materials. To be able to do this lesson and understand the idea of half-life, students should understand ratios and the multiplication of fractions, and be somewhat comfortable with probability
Explanation:
A compound is 2 or more substances chemically combined, mixtures arent
Answer:
Most similar - Lithium
Least similar - Phosphorus
Explanation:
Rubidium is an element in group 1A of the periodic table. It is a metal and forms an ionic compound with chlorine. The formula of the compound is RbCl.
If we look at the options, Lithium is also a group 1A element and forms an ionic compound with chlorine having the formula LiCl which is very much similar to RbCl chemically.
Phosphorus is a nonmetal. Its compounds with chlorine, PCl3 and PCl5 are covalent and does not resemble RbCl in any way.
