Elements in the Periodic Table of the Elements are ordered by which of the following?
atomic weight |
|
number of electron shells |
|
atomic mass |
|
atomic number |
The Periodic Table of the Elements categorizes elements primarily by the number of protons in their nucleus (atomic number) and secondarily by the characteristics they exhibit.
In the water cycle, infiltration is most closely related to:
rivers |
|
oceans |
|
runoff |

The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (50 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (18)\)
\(C° = {90 \over 9}\)
\(C° = 10\)
