You only care about what is in the boat, not so much the boat itself after all! If the weigh boat has a mass of 3g and you need 23g of the sample, what is going to be the total mass you measure for on your scale? Enter only the number.

no, i was listening to water by schoolboy q while and i saw this question

explenation:

water isn't wet. wetness is a description of our experience of water; what happens to us when we come into contact with water in such a way that it impinges on our state of being. we, or our possessions, 'get wet'. a less impinging sense experience of water is that it is cold or warm, while visual experience tells us that it is green or blue or muddy or fast-flowing. we learn by experience that a sensation of wetness is associated with water: 'there must be a leak/i must have sat in something.'

you need to take a look at the periodic system in order to sort these elements into pairs that would most likely exhibit similar chemical properties. first, you need to find elements that are found in the same group (groups are vertical in the periodic system), and then to see whether they have the same valence number. if they meet these criteria, they will have similar properties.

the first pair: ne (neon) and kr (krypton), are noble gases found in group 8

the second pair: li (lithium) and k (potassium), found in group 1

the third pair: s (sulfur) and te (tellurium), found in group 6
