The correct answer to my knowledge would be 45.

Assuming that the 10 soils are each represented by A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J.

A can combine with 9 others as: AB AC AD AE A F AG AH AI AJ

B can combine as: BC BD BE BF BG BH BI BJ

C as: CD CE CF CG CH CI CJ

D as: DE DF DG DH DI DJ

E as: EF EG EH EI EJ

F as: FG FH FI FJ

G as: GH GI GJ

H as: HI HJ

I as: IJ

Once you add all the combinations together, you get 45.

Hoping this helped you!

<span>If it gains an electron (2 electrons, 1 proton, 1 neutron) it becomes an ion that is negatively charge because it has more electrons than protons </span>

<span>A molecule - when 2 or more "different" elements combine or when 2 or more of the "same" elements combine </span>

<span>1 proton 1 electron <----- that is considered to be neutral </span>

<span>3 protons, 3 electrons <----- neutral </span>

<span>5 protons 5 electrons <----- neutral </span>

<span>6 protons, 5 electrons <-- positive ion [more protons than electrons] </span>

<span>5 protons, 8 electrons <--- negative ion [more electrons than protons] </span>
