The scientific study of rocks is called petrology, which is an essential component of geology.

The number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. That is the number of positive charges is equal to the number of negative charges.

The gram formula mass is nothing but molar mass.

Composition :

     P         Phosphorus       30.973762               1       = 30.973
   

     O         Oxygen             15.9994                  4       =  63.998
   

     N         Nitrogen            14.0067                  3       =  42.020
   

     H         Hydrogen          1.00794                  12      =  12.096

Total   =  30.973+63.998+42.020+12.096 = 149.087

The gram formula mass of a compound is nothing but the molar mass.

The molar mass of K2CO3 (Potassium Carbonate) is given by

Atomic weights of individual elements are

K (Potassium) = 39 g

C (Carbon) = 12 g

O (Oxygen) = 16 g

Hence, that of K2CO3 = 39(2) + 12 + 16(3)

= 78 + 12 + 48

= 138.

In circumcstances word there are 3C's, 2S's, I, U,R, T, A, N, E

Total = 13 letters

But last letter must be N

Hence, available places = 12

In that odd places = 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11

Owvels = 4

This can be done in 6P4 ways 

Remaining 7 letters can be arranged in 7!/3! x 2! ways

Hence, total number of ways = 6P4 x 7!/3! x 2! = 360 x 5040/12 = 1,51,200 ways.

Small means a little in size or quantity.

Here in the given options, Tiny means same as small.

Hence, Small most nearly means as Tiny.

Let the smaller number be 'm'

Then, from the given data, the larger number is '3m'

Given that m + 3m = 44

=> 4m = 44

m = 44/4 = 11

=> m = 11

=> 3m = 3 x 11 = 33

Hence, the two numbers are 11 and 33.

Materials that allow electricity to flow are called electrical conductors and that materials which does not allow electricity to flow are called Insulators.
