17. A 55-gram egg is placed in a pot. After the egg is boiled, which is most likely the mass of the egg?

A. 50g

B. 55g

C. 110g

D. 100g

B. 55g

Explanation:

When an egg is boiled, its albumin (the main component of its yolk) is denaturalized due to the high temperatures, making it apt for human consumption.

This is only a physical change and no mass is lost nor gained during this process.

That's why the correct answer is the original mass of the egg, in this case, option B.

organisms are more likely to be more preserved in mud than sand because mud is moist and wet, while sand is very dry.

answer: atomic mass was originally used to arrange elements on the periodic table, but is no longer used to organize the modern version.

explanation:

originally atomic mass was used to arrange elements on the periodic table from left to right in a row. each column then shows similar properties of elements of a group.

in modern periodic table, the atoms are arranged in increasing atomic number. as atomic number represents the number of protons in an atom which is unique for every atom.
