What's a substance called that is shiny, malleable, and poor conductor of electricity? a.) metal b.) non-metal c.) metalloid note: this question is confusing me, because metals are shiny, malleable, yet good conductors of electricity according to google. then non-metal's are poor conductors of electricity, yet brittle and not often shiny. metalloid is probably the answer, however it does still say their relatively good conductors. xd.

In november 1987, a massive iceberg broke loose from the antartic ice mass and floated free in the ocean. the chunk of ice was estimated to be 98 mi long, 25 mi wide, and 750 ft thick. a typical backyard swimming pool contains about 24,000 gallons of water. how many of these pools could you fill from the water in this iceberg? (assume the iceberg is a rectangular solid of the above dimensions and consists of water only). express answer in scientific notation.
