The high surface tension helps the paper clip - with much higher density - float on the water. The property of the surface of a liquid that allows it to resist an external force, due to the cohesive nature of its molecules.
Basically it means that there is a sort of skin on the surface of water where the water molecules hold on tight together. If the conditions are right, they can hold tight enough to support your paper clip. The paperclip is not truly floating, it is being held up by the surface tension.
Answer:Scientific literacy is the knowledge and understanding of scientific concepts and processes required for personal decision making, participation in civic and cultural affairs, and economic productivity. It also includes specific types of abilities.Science literacy is important because it provides a context for addressing societal problems, and because a science- literate populace can better cope with many of its prob- lems and make intelligent and informed decisions that will affect the quality of their lives and those of their children.
Explanation:
The best answer here is B) gasoline.
Gasoline is a oil-derived product. Oil is a nonrenewable resource.
Elements with three p-electrons....
That would be N, P, As, Sb, and Bi -- elements in group 15
For example, energy diagram showing "empty" orbitals up through the 3p.

Energy diagram of phosphorous showing three unpaired electrons in 3p-sublevel
.....3p ↑_ ↑_ ↑_
3s ↑↓
.....2p ↑↓ ↑↓ ↑↓
2s ↑↓
1s ↑↓
According to Hund's rule, the electrons singly occupy the p-orbitals, and all have the same spin.
