2/ Volcanic ash can cause breathing problems and damage the lungs.

3/ They can lose their possessions as volcanoes can destroy their houses, roads and fields.

4/ Volcanoes can change the weather. They can cause rain, thunder and lightning which can cause damage to people.

5/ When volcanoes erupt, they emit a mixture of gases and particles into the air which can cause global warming by adding to the greenhouse effect (such as CO2) or a significant dip in global temperatures in the following year or two (ash and Sulfur dioxide).

In a neutral atom, the number of protons is always equal to what other part of the atom?

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

b. The number of electrons

Explanation:

A "neutral atom" has a neutral charge. This means that its charge is equal to zero. In order for the charges to cancel out each other, the atom's positive charge should be equal to the negative charge. These being said, the number of electrons (negatively-charged) is then equal to the number of protons (positively-charged). Those atoms which are not neutral are called "ions." This means that they either have more or less electrons than the protons.

You are a researcher for a golf club manufacturer. You are given two identical looking cubes of a metal alloy. You are informed

Rashid [163]

Answer:

C.Melt both cubes and look for a broader range of melting temperatures. The one that melts over a broader range of temperatures is the amorphous solid.

Explanation:

Amorphous solids is one that do not have a fixed melting points but melt over a wide range of temperature due to the irregular shape hence its name. Contrariwise crystalline solids, have a fixed and sharp melting point.

This comes in handy to solve the riddle. We can characterise the pair with the melting point property.

Which metal will more easily lose an electron sodium or potassium?

sergey [27]

The metal that would more easily lose an electron would be potassium. It is more reactive than sodium. Also, looking on the periodic table, from top to bottom for groups 1 and 2, reactivity increases. So, it should be potassium. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
