Answer:
D. Metallic atoms have valence shells that are mostly empty, which
means these atoms are more likely to give up electrons and allow
them to move freely.
Explanation:
Metals usually contain very few electrons in their valence shells hence they easily give up these few valence electrons to yield metal cations.
In the metallic bond, metal cations are held together by electrostatic attraction between the metal ions and a sea of mobile electrons.
Since metals give up their electrons easily, it is very easy for them to participate in metallic bonding. They give up their electrons easily because their valence shells are mostly empty, metal valence shells usually contain only a few electrons.

B is right at first I thought I was wrong
Explanation:
Newton's first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force. This tendency to resist changes in a state of motion is inertia.
To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the law of Malus which describes the change in the Intensity of Light when it crosses a polarized surface.
Mathematically the expression is given as
Where,
= Initial Intensity
I = Final Intensity after pass through the polarizer
= Angle between the polarizer and the light
Since it is sought to reduce the intensity by half the relationship between the two intensities will be given as
Using the Malus Law we have,
Angle with respect to maximum is 
Answer:
A friend snorkeling just below the surface of the water along the same shore will detect the sound first.
Explanation:
- The speed of sound in water medium is faster than that through the air.
- Sound propagates through the medium by transferring through the molecules on it. Water has more closely packed molecules due to which the speed is faster.
- In fact, the sound's speed in water is almost four times faster than that in the air.
- So the guy in the water surface gets to hear sound faster than the one in sore.
