How can a scientist assess whether a pure niobium (nb) sample is responsible for contaminating the lab with radioactivity?
test the niobium sample to see whether it now contains other elements.
test the niobium sample for the presence of niobium oxide compounds.
heat the niobium, and see if the level of radioactivity in the lab increases.
place the niobium under pressure, and see if the level of radioactivity in the lab increases.

Which fact represents evidence for the big bang theory?

Which statements are true concerning mineral formation? check all that apply. the slower the cooling, the larger the crystals. the faster the cooling, the smaller the crystals. crystals formed from magma are smaller than crystals formed from lava. minerals can only form in solutions when the solution is heated deep underground. when a solution cools, elements and compounds leave the solution and crystallize as minerals. minerals formed from hot water solutions can form narrow channels in the surrounding rock.
