China has been by far the biggest coal producing country over the last three decades. The country produced about 3.6 billion tonnes (Bt) of coal in 2012 accounting for over 47% of the world's total coal output.

The combined gas law states that the ratio between the pressure-volume product and the temperature of a system remains constant.

Hence it depends on all the three Volume, Temperature & Pressure.

A mountain is what has roots that nobody sees, Is taller than trees, Up, up it goes, Yet it never grows.

Force of impact is the force when the objects meet. The speed of the object plays an important role in the generation of force of impact. The laws of physics determine that the force of impact increases with the square of the increase in speed.

A homogeneous mixture is also called as solution.

The term "solution" is more frequently used when a homogeneous mixture is a liquid, although it is sometimes used if the homogeneous mixture is a gas.

Another name for a solid homogeneous mixture of metals is an alloy.

For neutral atoms, the periodic trends in atomic size can be described like this

Atomic size decreases when going from left to right across a period,
Atomic size increases when going from top to bottom down a group.

Let's use these trends to try and figure out which atom would have the largest radius.

If you look at elements that are located in the same group, potassium will have a larger atomic radius when compared with sodium. Likewise, bromine will have a larger atomic radius when compared with chlorine.

Now focus on potassium and bromine. Since potassium is located at the start of period 3, and bromine at the end of the same period, potassium will have a larger atomic radius than bromine, and thus the largest atomic radius of the four given atoms.

Yes, a square is a rhombus. But a rhombus is not a square unless the interior angles are at right angles.

We know that, a square is a quadrilateral with all sides equal and all the interior angles are 90 deg i.e, at right angles. 

Whereas

a rhombus is also a quadrilateral with all sides equal but the interior angles are not at right angles. Hence, if the interior angles of a rhombus are all at right angles (90 deg), then it is square.
