Which element is most likely to have the ability to be hammered into a thin sheet?(Nitrogen, Silicon, Fluorine, Calcium)​

Answer:

Calcium

Explanation:

The ability to be hammered into sheets is known in chemistry as malleability. One of the properties of metals is that metals are malleable. All metals thus have a common property that they can be hammered into sheets used in diverse applications. We can see diverse thin sheets of metals around us used to diverse purposes. This is a vary important property of metals that amplify its importance in materials science.

Of all the options listed, only calcium is a metal. Since nonmetals and metalloids can not be hammered into sheets, nitrogen, silicon and fluorine can not be hammered into sheets. Calcium, being a metal can be hammered into thin sheets.

Question:

Options

1) Nitrogen

2) Silicon

3) Fluorine

4) Calcium

Answer:

The correct option is;

4) Calcium

Explanation:

We analyze each of the elements as follows;

Nitrogen is a gas at room temperature, therefore it cannot be hammered into sheets

Silicon is a brittle non-metal, that breaks when struck

Fluorine is a gas at room temperature, therefore it cannot be hammered into sheets

Calcium is a soft, solid silvery-white, metallic element that is ductile, hence, it can be beaten into very thin sheets.

Where is the DNA stored in a cell?

Refer to the question above to help answer this question. If the students were to redo their experiment with the water and the antiacid tablet, what would you recommend they do in order to show that the mass was conserved in that chemical reaction.

a. They should put a cover on the beaker so nothing can escape during the experiment.

b. They should use two antiacid tablets instead of one.

c. They should use more water.

d. They should get a new scale and double check their measurements.

What is an ellipse please help)

When the speed of the bottle is 2 m/s, the KE is kg m2/s2. When the speed of the bottle is 3 m/s, the KE is kg m2/s2. When the speed of the bottle is 4 m/s, the KE is kg m2/s2. When the speed of the bottle is 5 m/s, the KE is kg m2/s2. When the speed of the bottle is 6 m/s, the KE is kg m2/s2.
instructions
In this part of the experiment, you will be changing the speed of the bottle by dropping it from different heights. You will use the same mass, 0.250 kg, for each trial, so record this mass in Table B for each velocity. Then, calculate the expected kinetic energy (KE) at each velocity. Use the formula KE = mv2,
where m is the mass and v is the speed. Record your calculations in Table B of your Student Guide.
