Physical Science Chapter 14 1. There are two different elements in a water molecule. 2. Atoms heavier than hydrogen were made by nuclear fusion. 3. If we doubled the magnifying power of the most powerful optical microscope in the world, we would still not be able to see an atom. 4. Chemical compounds are made up of about 100 distinct elements. Atoms are the smallest subdivision of matter that still retains chemical properties of a substance. A quark is the smallest particle that exists. Electrons

prices to drop. While companies have utilized hydraulic fracturing (“fracking”) to increase oil production in the U.S., they now are starting to feel monetary constraints due to increased marginal costs. Fracking a well is extremely sensitive to the law of diminishing returns, with output falling about 65% after the first year, causing new wells to be constantly drilled in order to maintain production (Plumer, 2015). However, the decreasing marginal product does allow companies to quickly adjust to
