Because metalloids are semiconductors. The fact that metalloids are brittle/shiny are only physical characteristics and wouldn’t be the reason why a metalloid would be helpful for designing a new computer processor. Amphoteric means that it’s able to react both as a base and as an acid, but since the computer processor has to have something to do with electricity, the second option would be the answer. Semiconductors are also helpful for electrical circuits, so that’s also why is would be best for the new computer processor.
Answer:
A. If you hit the surface with enough photons, no matter their frequency, you can eventually get an electron to be ejected.
Explanation:
<h2> Children & Voting</h2>
Consequences and both negative and positive sides
I think children should not be allowed to vote for things such as presidents, since it's a big responsibility. But I do think, early teens and teenagers (12+) should be smart enough to elect a candidate, and predict the consequences of their election.
If I vote for a person with a dirty history, I should predict there is no reason why he/she should suddenly be a clean person.
If I vote for a person with a clean history, but that doesn't seem to be willing to do or change anything, I should be able to predict that things will remain the same, if not worse.
Even if most children that age, are responsible enough to vote, it's a huge responsibility, and the truth is, newer generations are gradually loosing interest in politics, which means they will relatively become more politically naive, affecting their decisions.
