Why would the heavier metals sink into the center during the formation of a planet?
Because the the metal is heavy
Which of these elements does this star contain?
Of which elements? - Stars usually consist mainly of hydrogen, less helium, and small amounts of the so-called "metals" (which, in astronomy, means any heavier elements).Of which elements? - Stars usually consist mainly of hydrogen, less helium, and small amounts of the so-called "metals" (which, in astronomy, means any heavier elements).Of which elements? - Stars usually consist mainly of hydrogen, less helium, and small amounts of the so-called "metals" (which, in astronomy, means any heavier elements).Of which elements? - Stars usually consist mainly of hydrogen, less helium, and small amounts of the so-called "metals" (which, in astronomy, means any heavier elements).
What are the 2 main elements in stars?
All stars are comprised of around 98% hydrogen and helium, of which approximately 3/4 is hydrogen.This is also true of all the matter in the universe as a whole.While stars contain some amount of pretty much every element, they are made primarily of hydrogen and helium.
What elements make up the stars in globular clusters?
The same as on Earth - but in different proportions. Most stars are made up almost entirely of hydrogen and helium; the so-called "metals" (heavier elements) are present in much smaller quantities.
What type of metal or metals are rockets made from?
Aluminum and Titanium are popular for their strength to weight ratios, but many metals are used.

Why would the heavier metals sink to to the center during the formation of planet?
because they are HEAVY..... do you work for NASA by any chance?
What will the alkali metals family do with its valence electrons during a compound formation?
Alkali metals lose one electron in chemical reactions.
What usually happens to valence electrons?
In metals, they are transfered during reactions or thought to be lost during ion formation
How is the cycle of stars provides materiel for earth?
The early Universe had hydrogen and helium, but no metals (heavier elements). Metals were produced by fusion in stars; in the case of a supernova, significant amounts of those metals get out of the star, and participate in the formation of future solar systems.
What is differentiation when discussing planetary formation?
The 'planet' undergoes intense bombardment and radioactive activity.The rock begins to heat and melt.The heavier metals heat and sink towards the center forcing the lighter rocks to float towards the surface.The planet cools and the rock layers solidify
Do heavier metals melt quicker?
No
Why is the earth's core made up of metals?
metals sank to the center during a time when the interiors were molten throughout
Earth is made mostly of metals and rocks. Where did this material come from?
your mama and your daddy
What is heavier iron or silica?
Iron is heavier because iron is a metal and metals are heavier but silica is not a metal so silica is lighter than iron.
Do heavier metals melt more quickly?
the melting points vary .
