Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Phase of Matter for Each Element
  • Sodium (Na): Solid
  • Neon (Ne): Gas
  • Copper (Cu): Solid
  • Calcium (Ca): Solid
Step 2: Determine the Metal or Non-metal Status
  • Sodium (Na): Metal
  • Neon (Ne): Non-metal (Noble gas)
  • Copper (Cu): Metal
  • Calcium (Ca): Metal
Step 3: Identify the Element That Is Clearly Not a Metal
  • Neon (Ne) is the element that is clearly not a metal.

Final Answer

The correct answer is B.

Airlines sometimes overbook flights. Suppose that for a plane with 100 seats, an airline takes 110 reservations. Define the variable x as the number of people who actually show up for a sold-out flight. From past experience, the population distribution of x is given in the following table: x P(x) 96 0.15 98 0.25 100 0.41 102 0.12 104 0.04 106 0.015 108 0.01 110 0.005 What is the probability that all the passengers who showed up can be accommodated?

When you drop a 0.39 kg apple, Earth exerts a force on it that accelerates it at 9.8 m/s^2 toward the earth's surface. According to Newton's third law, the apple must exert an equal but opposite force on Earth. If the mass of the earth 5.98 x 10^24 kg, what is the magnitude of the earth's acceleration toward the apple? Answer in units of m/s^2.
