Answer:
b. The number of electrons
Explanation:
A "neutral atom" has a <u>neutral charge</u>. This means that <em>its charge is equal to </em><em>zero. </em>In order for the charges to cancel out each other, the atom's <em>positive charge should be equal to the negative charge. </em>These being said, the number of electrons<em> (negatively-charged)</em> is then equal to the number of protons <em>(positively-charged). </em>Those atoms which are not neutral are called <em>"ions."</em> This means that they either have more or less electrons than the protons.
Answer: I italicize for checking
- <em>Rocks are preserved through the process.</em>
- <em>Rocks change from one type to another.</em>
- <em>Different rock groups are interrelated.</em>
- Rocks change from one type to another in a specific order.
- <em>Environmental conditions influence a change in rock type.</em>
Explanation:
Rocks are preserved, as in you can't destroy them completely, but no, they don't <em>stay </em>the same they change.
A compound is a substance that can be separated into simpler substances only by chemical means.
Answer:
D. 5.6 g/cm^3
Explanation:
On the average seismic velocity increases with increase in depth due higher the pressure and more compaction
sand and shales in the Niger Delta Basin density–velocity relationship is
P = 0.31×V^0.25
A derivation of the original Gardner equation to calculate the average densities for sands and shales in wells.
ρ = α ×V^β
where
ρ = bulk density in g/cm3,
V = P-wave velocity,
α = 0.31 for V (m/s) and 0.23 for V(ft/s) and
β = 0.25.
Such that
ρ = 0.31 ×V^0.25
So the fastest seismic velocity will be in the densest material which is D. 5.6 g/cm3
