Because metalloids are semiconductors. The fact that metalloids are brittle/shiny are only physical characteristics and wouldn’t be the reason why a metalloid would be helpful for designing a new computer processor. Amphoteric means that it’s able to react both as a base and as an acid, but since the computer processor has to have something to do with electricity, the second option would be the answer. Semiconductors are also helpful for electrical circuits, so that’s also why is would be best for the new computer processor.
Answer:
the answer is evaporation
Explanation: Evaporation is the process by which a liquid transforms into vapor (a gas). When some material is in its liquid phase, its particles are really close together (but not as much as we would see in a metal). As the temperature of the liquid increases, also does the kinetic energy of the particles. This cause the particles in the water to move a lot faster, thus its oscillations are larger. This causes an increase in the volume of the material.
the answer is B. sparsely populated
I'm not sure if you have any options, but here are some of the typical features that almost every Victorian style house had:
- sanitation: after 1850s, each house had proper drainage, waste facilities, and a toilet
- hold and cold water: by the end of the 19th century, almost every house had tap water
- lighting: it was powered by gas, not candlelight anymore
- a basement with a cellar for storage
- sash windows
- pitched roof or irregular shape
- asymmetrical facade
- etc.
