Keeping your arm straight in front of you, you rotate 90° to your left, and see the left side of the circle lit while the right side is dark. Half the ball is still lit up, but you can see only part of the lit area. As you continue to rotate, you see a different amount of the ball.
A.) half - life of a radioactive substance is defined as the time during which concentration of the substance becomes half the initial value.

Answer:
If you change the number of neutrons somehow, nothing will happen because it carry's no charge at all.
Explanation:
Answer:
An atom is made of up subatomic particles called protons, neutrons and electrons. The center of an atom is called the nucleus and is where the protons and neutrons are held while electrons orbit the nucleus in orbital shells. A electron has a negative charge, a proton has a positive charge, and a neutron has no charge (neutral).
The atomic number of a atom is the total amount of the atom's protons. In a neutral atom (Not an ion), the amount of electrons is the same as the protons. Therefore, the atomic number also tells the amount of electrons in the atom.
A ion is a negatively or positively charged particle due to the giving or taking of electrons with one or more atoms (Called an ionic bond). An atom that gives away electrons becomes positively charge because that atom now has more protons than neutrons. An atom that takes an electron becomes negatively charge because that atom now has more electrons than protons.
Atomic Mass is the sum of an atom proton and neutrons. To determine how many neutron an atom has, subtract the atomic mass from the atomic number. Electrons do not play a part in atomic mass as their mass is 1/1,836 of a proton's mass.
A isotope is two or more forms of the same element that contain equal amounts of protons but different amount of neutrons.
