Charlotte completed an experiment in which she investigated and discovered that an electrically charged object can attract an uncharged object without any contact. She used a PVC pipe and small pieces of paper for her experiment. Each time, she rubbed the PVC pipe with a cloth to give it a charge and then held it over paper. What would be Charlotte's control group in this experiment? A. Using the cloth and rubbing it against the PVC pipe
B. Taking the pieces of paper and rubbing it against the cloth
c. Not rubbing the cloth against the PVC pipe or the paper
d. Rubbing the cloth against both the paper and the PVC pipe

explanation:

the largest database of organic compounds lists about 10 million substances, which include compounds originating from living organisms and those synthesized by chemists. the number of potential organic compounds has been estimated at 1060—an astronomically high number. the existence of so many organic molecules is a consequence of the ability of carbon atoms to form up to four strong bonds to other carbon atoms, resulting in chains and rings of many different sizes, shapes, and complexities. the simplest organic compounds contain only the elements carbon and hydrogen, and are called hydrocarbons. even though they are composed of only two types of atoms, there is a wide variety of hydrocarbons because they may consist of varying lengths of chains, branched chains, and rings of carbon atoms, or combinations of these structures. in addition, hydrocarbons may differ in the types of carbon-carbon bonds present in their molecules. many hydrocarbons are found in plants, animals, and their fossils; other hydrocarbons have been prepared in the laboratory. we use hydrocarbons every day, mainly as fuels, such as natural gas, acetylene, propane, butane, and the principal components of gasoline, diesel fuel, and heating oil. the familiar plastics polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene are also hydrocarbons. we can distinguish several types of hydrocarbons by differences in the bonding between carbon atoms. this leads to differences in geometries and in the hybridization of the carbon orbitals.

the answer is 1 i believe

it's c (engineer's do their work with mechanical stuff not on any living being)
