Magnesium is more metallic than chlorine because elements with metallic character readily lose electrons. Magnesium has an ionic charge of +2, ie. it will lose 2 electrons if possible. Chlorine has an ionic charge of -1, means that it will gain 1 electron if possible.

<span>The correct answer is b. Radon. Oxygen, Hyrdrogen, and Boron, are not radioactivel ike Radon and it regenerates quickly meaning that even though it has a short half-life period, it stays for a long time once released.

The quinine in tonic water shines a strange blue-white colour when lit with UV light. Explain what is happening here.
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

Quinine contains phosphors, substances that glow when they are hit with certain wavelengths of light.

The phosphors in quinine absorb UV light, which is invisible to our eyes.

Electrons in the phosphors absorb the UV energy and are excited to higher energy levels.

When the electrons drop back to lower energy levels, they emit some of this energy as a glowing blue visible light.

Answer:

Threatened Species: A threatened species is a species at risk but not yet endangered. California sea otters were classififed as a threatened species. Laws were passed to protect the otters and now they have increased their population size.

Invasive Species: One of the main causes of extinction and endangered species is the introduction of an exotic species. New exotic species are called invasive species. Invasive species can disrupt food chains, carry disease, prey on native species directly, and out-compete native species for limited resources, like food.

Extinction: If a population decreases too much in numbers, they disappear. Extinct species mean that the species has died out and no individuals left. An example of extinction: New Zealand was once home to a bird called the Giant Moa. Humans settled as their population increased the Moa population decreased. The species is now extinct.
