Carbon is the only element that can form so many different compounds because each carbon atom can form four chemical bonds to other atoms, and because the carbon atom is just the right, small size to fit in comfortably as parts of very large molecules.
The independent variable in the experiment is the soap and the dependent variable in the experiment is the number of water drops on the surface of the penny. The control is the penny without soap.
Dmitri Mendeleev is the scientist who first developed the periodic table.
He is a Russian chemist and inventor who formulated the periodic law and created the periodic table of elements. He corrected some of the properties of the elements. Now, we can easily locate the elements we wanted to identify. With the help of Mendeleev, studying chemistry is not that difficult because he tried to simplify some of the concept that was complex before.
The correct term for each statement is as follows;
- Caves being formed by acid rain dissolving underground limestone - weathering
- Deltas forming at the mouths of rivers - deposition
- Glaciers scraping rocks across the earth’s surface - erosion
- Rocks being made smooth by tumbling across a stream bed - weathering
- Ponds filling up with sediment and becoming marshes - deposition
<h3>What is weathering?</h3>
Weathering in geology is the mechanical or chemical breaking down of rocks in situ by weather or other causes. options 7 and 14 are the case in this scenario as there is a breakdown of limestone and rocks.
Erosion is the result of having been worn away or eroded, as by a glacier on rock or the sea on a cliff face. Agents of erosion are water, ice or wind. Options 12 is an example of erosion because glaciers are wearing off rocks.
Deposition is the laying down of sediment carried by wind, flowing water, the sea or ice. Sediment can be transported as pebbles, sand and mud, or as salts dissolved in water. Options 8 and 15 are examples of deposition.

Answer:
A. percentage mass of iron = 5.17%
percentage mass of sand = 8.62%
percentage mass of water = 86.205%
B. (Iron + sand + water) -------> ( iron + sand) ------> sand
C. The step of separation of iron and sand
Explanation:
A. Percentage mass of the mixtures:
Total mass of mixture = (15.0 + 25.0 + 250.0) g =290.0 g
percentage mass of iron = 15/290 * 100% = 5.17%
percentage mass of sand = 25/290 * 100% = 8.62%
percentage mass of water = 250/290 * 100% = 86.205%
B. Flow chart of separation procedure
(Iron + sand + water) -------> separation by filtration using filter paper and funnel to remove water --------> ( iron + sand) -----------> separation using magnet to remove iron ------> sand
C. The step of separation of iron and sand by magnetization of iron will have the highest amount of error because during the process, some iron particles may not readily be attracted to the magnet as they may have become interlaced in-between sand grains. Also, some sand particle may also be attracted to the magnet as they are are borne on iron particles.
