c. to keep claiming land and looking for gold

d. to find more land because Spain was overcrowded

The correct answer is C. To keep claiming land and looking for gold.

Explanation:

Although the European kings did not obtain many treasures, their main motivation for continuing to finance westward exploration was to claim new lands under their sovereignty, and to exploit the natural resources they possessed, especially gold and silver.

Thus, the Age of Discovery must be understood as framed within the economic and political process of mercantilism, through which European nations sought to conquer new lands and establish colonies there, which would allow them to accumulate wealth through the exploitation of their raw materials.

no because it could make the world a terrible place to live in.

question - in 1827, john walker, a druggist in a small english town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. the druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. it is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. although walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. it could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. in a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. the match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. it would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. this was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar. according the paragraph what was the benefit of the new phosphorus match? it burst into flame when rubbed on sandpaper. it was made by mixing chemicals. it could be ignited on any dry surface. it threw fire in all directions.

answer - matches required natural chemicals
