Answer:
This would be sleet.
Explanation:
Sleet is formed when water droplets fall through a cold layer of air. Freezing rain, on the other hand, is water droplets that freezes upon contact with a solid surface.

Protons and neutrons are the sub-atomic particles present in the nucleus of an atom where as electrons are present revolving round the nucleus in orbits. Electrons are negatively charged, protons are positively charged where as a neutron is a neutral species. It is the presence of electric charge that lead to the discovery of electrons (negative charge) and protons (positive charge), while it took time to discover neutral as they were electrically neutral species. Neutrons carrying no charge were not detected easily by passing electromagnetic radiations. Therefore, neutrons were the last of the three subatomic particles, to be discovered.
Answer:
When a Magnesium Ribbon is burnt, a powdery substance called magnesium oxide is formed.
Explanation:
There has obviously been a chemical change because several chemical properties of the magnesium have been modified: the color, the texture and the mass.
The increase in mass is due to the fact that oxygen from the air has combined with the magnesium to make magnesium oxide, MgO.
The chemical equation, Mg + O2 MgO shows this reaction but it needs to be balanced to make 2Mg + O2 2MgO.
Using stoichiometry, we can convert this eqation into an equation with moles:
2 mol Mg + 1 mol O2 2 mol MgO.
Next, we convert to grams using atomic masses obtained from the periodic table:
48g Mg + 32g O2 80g MgO
Lastly, we determine the same thing in the proportions we used. In other words, we used only 0.15g of Mg (not 48g) so everything needs to be divided by 320. So 80 / 320 = 0.25 g. If we burn 0.15 g of Mg, we obtain 0.25 g of MgO.
Hope this helps!!!
This is my first answer.
Isotopes of an element have same atomic number (number of protons) but vary in the mass number (number of neutrons). The chemical reactivity of an element is not affected by the change in mass number. So, for stable isotopes of Oxygen, (Oxygen-16, Oxygen-17 and Oxygen-18) the biochemical pathway of oxygen breathed in during respiration remains unaffected even with different isotopes. Only the radioactive isotopes of oxygen when breathed in may cause serious health hazards as they emit radiations that may damage the internal organs in the body.
47/3 which could be simplified to 15.6
