3. The body mistakes strontium for the element of calcium, since the strontium-90
has a very close towards the element calcium within the element charts while these
both elements are found similar chemically between both of these things, and
because of that, the body tries to put the strontium into the body and bones like it
usually with the calcium, and because of that, this is why that the body is easily
fooled into thinking that this radioactive element is mistaken for the element
calcium, an instead of calcium, it is replaced with this thinking that this is the
calcium that can help the body, which instead is actually the strontium that could
hurt the body, and with this, scientists believe that this is the reason why the body
mistakes the element for calcium.

14.A compound is the combination of two different elements together to form a
new substance of both, and this can be said for substances like water and
salt, which take up a combination of two or more elements like hydrogen and
oxygen or sodium and chloride, while the smallest particle is the molecule,
which is the result of the chemical formula with the elements atoms to form
a particle of the substance. In addition, they are connected by chemical
bonds. While that is true, a mixture is the combination of materials like salt
and water to form a new substance of both, but these cannot be represented
by chemical formulas, since mixtures do not need a certain amount to create

the substance unlike atoms, which need a proper amount to create the
particle.
15.This effects happens by evaporation when the liquid is absorbing the heat
energy, which creates its molecules new state from how it separates farther
away from each others connection, and because of this, it changes into a
gas, and due to the fact that the person opened the bottle, the liquid is
accessible to heat, which is making it turn into gas form gathering the
molecules, and because of that, it turns into a gas that can spread apart, and
since it is not contained to spread to just the container, it spreads out, which
goes to the point, when you can inhale it, and this is how the perfume
becomes visible to you without even seeing it.
16.An example of a change of state that helps create the release of energy from
the substance could be as easy as the change of state during freezing, which
tries to make the molecules of the liquids get more compact to form a sold,
and with this, it releases the energy to make sure that it sticks into a compact
position that does move around, and a good example of this is with water,
which freezes and causes the water to be frozen, since the coldness causes
the molecules grow more closer together to form a solid, and because of that,
it loses energy.
17.Sodium and Potassium are both very similar from the guide, since they are
both metals to the fact there is a line separating the metals and the gases,
and those both metals are farther away from the gas groups, and these both
like stated in the passage belong to a majority of elements that are metals,
which also are good conductors that have a shiny metallic look that is mostly
silvery and easy to hammer together, which is key in their resemblance, since
they need to perform the same things, but sodium does not compare to
chlorine, since chlorine is a poor conductor that is located on the side where
gases are located, which is different to sodium, and the fact that the family
that chlorine is located in is different shows that it does not resemble the
color like those two metals, which represent the whole family of their kind but
copper and gold, and chlorine is also always a low melting point, which does
not resemble the solid characteristic of sodium and potassium.

B. The reason why that the ice is less dense than the water is because the ice is
floating atop the water, which indicates that it is less dense than water, since it

has less volume than water and floats to the top instead of falling to the bottom,
like a more denser object would do to accumulate more space down below, since
it cannot float if it is more dense than water, and it would have to cover the
volume down below, and you cannot identify if its colder or warmer than water,
since we do not know how much the temperature of the water is, which would
help show the answer to c and d, since you need to know the temperature of the
water before hand in order to tell the answer, since then, we can tell the ice
could cause the water to drop down after it solutes by comparing the before and
after pictures of both, and because of that, we cannot tell if it is colder or warmer
and it would make more sense for a, since the ice is less dense than water in the
picture.
10. If the temperature gets hotter, the density of the air decreases, since the air
expands more farther out, which will increase the volume size of air capacity
while keeping the mass of the air the same, and since the density if the mass
divided by the amount of volume, the density will get smaller and smaller, and
as a result, it will cause the air to float, and an example of this is a hot air
balloon, which supplies hot air towards the air, and as a result, the air inside the
balloon expands more and more inside the balloon structure, and since the air
expands, it creates more volume while keeping its original mass, and by this, it
helps the density to become weaker and weaker like shown in the equation of
density I said before, and with this, the hot air balloon gains less density to the
point that it can float above the ground.
