Answer:
Carbon
Explanation:
Carbon has four electrons in its valence shell, so it generally shares it in a covalent bond. This element needs four electrons to be stable, so it can form single (such as the bond with hydrogen), double (such as the bond with oxygen) or triple bonds (such as the bond with nitrogen).
It can also form bonds with other carbon, and they can form longs chains, that's why there are a lot of organic compounds (the compounds with carbon). Carbon can form rings too, such as in benzene.
Answer:
The outer core of the earth is liquid.
Explanation:
Seismic waves travel through the Earth at different speeds and are reflected and refracted diffracted differently as they encounter layers of different densities.
By analyzing these waves, they have concluded that there is an inner core of solid iron surrounded by a liquid outer core consisting of nickel and iron.
A is wrong. The Earth consists of several layers
C is wrong. Seafloor spreading is caused by the movement of tectonic plates away from each other.
D is wrong. The mantle is mostly solid rock.
Answer:
Reason: Gravitational pull of the Moon
Explanation:
Weight of Garfield is 24 lbs on the Earth. He took a flight from the Earth to the Moon where the gravity is 1/6 of the gravity on the Earth.
But when reaches the Moon he found he weighed only 6 lbs. It is due to the gravitational pull of the Moon.
Mass of an object reamins the same at every location while its weight changes due to the change in acceleration due to gravity. It is equal (on Moon) to 1/6 the of acceleration due to gravity on the earth.
