Native elements are those which occur in nature in their pure form (not as compounds). Examples include gold and silver as well as carbon (in the form of graphite or diamond).

What is the major heat source of earth's crust?
there are many reasons for heat in earths crust. like the friction between rock masses during movements of earths crust. there may also be heat left over from the original heat of earths interior. but the main reason for heat in earths crust is radioactive elements. they give off energy that can be absorbed as heat. some radioactive elements include uranium, thorium, and a form of potassium.
What is earths crust and landforms?
Some of them are mesa biomes,dry plantations
How far down is the earths crust?
The distance will vary in different places. Some may be 5km or even 50 km.
How thick is Mercury's crust?
There is no true answer to this question. But scientists believe Mercury's crust is anywhere from 100km-300km. They get an estimated measurement by taking the circumfrance of the earth and the estimated circumfrance of Mercury and adding them together then they take an approximate amount of earths crust and subtract the crust by the difference of the earths and mercurys crust
What thin layer of rock surrounds the earth?
That's called the crust. The size of the crust compared to the size of the Earth's mantle can be compared to the size of the radius of an apple as the mantle and the apple's skin as the thickness of the crust. the crust is broken up into several plates that float and move around on the mantle's molten surface.
Could the amount of some elements in earths crust increase?
Yes. That is what causes some of the Earths core heat. Elements being formed by radioactive decay. Look at the Earths' makeup and see that the percentages of elements follows the periodic chart by decay.
The short periods contain some of the most common elements found in?
earths crust , oceans and atmosphere

What are some uses for potassium?
its found in the earths crust.
Are some mountains get higher by earth crust?
No ther are not mountains that get higher by the earths crust
What is earths crust and landforms?
Some of them are mesa biomes,dry plantations
Could the amount of some elements in earths crust decrease?
If they are removed by man made actions but remember that no matter can be created or destroyed. I concur that they are mostly burnt for power
How much of the earths surface is covered by india?
India is not covering some of the earth's crust but part of the earth's crust is part of India
What are some words to do with earths layers?
Outer Core, Inner Core, Mantle, Crust
Do some part of the earths crust move up 12 cm per year?
no
Oxygen is a gas at normal conditions. Scientists report that oxygen is the most common element in the earths crust. The earths crust is composed of solids and liquids. Explain this apparent contradi?
If you talk about elements, then oxygen is O, and O is found in many, many COMPOUNDS. So, if a compound is found in the crust, and if it contains oxygen (like water, H2O), then the element oxygen will be counted. It doesn't have to be in a gaseous form. In addition, O2 gas can also be found dissolved in some liquids.
