The pair of elements with the most familiar chemical properties are A. Mg and S
B. Ca and Br
C. Mg and Ca
D. S and Ar

C. mg and Ca

Explanation:

These chemical elements are collectively called as the Alkaline Earth Metals. Calcium and Magnesium are two of the six elements that fall into this category. The outer electronic structure of all these elements is similar due to which they all have similarity in their chemical and physical properties. They are all shiny, though fairly soft but still harder than alkali metals. Further, these are usually white or silvery coloured elements.They react with water to form hydrogen gas and metal hydroxide and with oxygen, they form oxides.

a. a primary source combines several different accounts of an event. b. a primary source generally benefits from having been written after an event.

explanation:

a rain shadow is a dry region of land on the side that is protected against the prevailing winds of a mountain range. the prevailing winds are the winds that occur most of the time in a particular place of the earth

prevailing winds carry air toward the mountain range. as the air rises up over a mountain range, the air cools, water vapor condenses, and clouds form. on this side of the mountains, called the windward side, precipitation falls in the form of  rain  or snow. this dry air produces a  rain shadow.
