What is the role of gluons?

Chemistry
1 answer:
igor_vitrenko [27]2 years ago
8 0

The role of the gluons is to bind together the quarks that make up protons and neutrons. That is option D.

<h3>What are gluons?</h3>

Gluons are those particles found within an atom that are responsible for binding protons and neutrons together inside the nucleus of an atom.

The gluons are capable of binding the protons and neutrons together by holding together the quarks that makes up protons and neutrons.

These gluons are known to carry a color-anticolor charge which makes up the 9 types of gluons which include:

  • red anti-red,

  • red anti-blue,

  • red anti-green,

  • blue anti-red,

  • blue anti-blue,

  • blue anti-green,

  • green anti-red,

  • green anti-blue, and

  • green anti-green.

An atom is the smallest indivisible part of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction.

The proton is the positive particle of an atom which is found within the nucleus.

The neutron is the particle that is found in the nucleus of an atom which doesn't have any charge.

What's a word equation
Yuri [45]
A word equation is a chemical reaction described using words.
A common example is the act of photosynthesis - the process plants use to make glucose (sugar) to use as 'food'.
Plants convert water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and glucose.
A word equation to express this is:
Water + Carbon Dioxide → Glucose + Oxygen
The other type of equation is a symbol equation - this uses the symbols of the elements instead of the common names:
H₂O + CO₂ → C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂
There is also a balanced version:
6H₂O + 6CO₂ → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
<em>If you want information on the balanced symbol equations, feel free to PM me.</em>

The compound methyl butanoate smells like apples. Its percent composition is 58.8% C, 9.9% H, and 31.4% O. What’s the empirical
blsea [12.9K]
To find the empirical formula you would first need to find the moles of each element:

58.8g/ 12.0g = 4.9 mol C

9.9g/ 1.0g = 9.9 mol H

31.4g/ 16.0g = 1.96 O

Then you divide by the smallest number of moles of each:

4.9/1.96 = 2.5

9.9/1.96 = 6

1.96/1.96 = 1

Since there is 2.5, you find the least number that makes each moles a whole number which is 2.

So the empirical formula is C5H12O2.

I will give brainliest!! How long is the pencil? Make sure to use the appropriate amount of significant figures.
8090 [49]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The bottom of pencil is placed at the starting point of scale. Whereas the tip of pencil depicts the end point of its length.

The bottom of pencil is at 0 mm and tip of pencil is at 18.73 mm. The appropriate amount of significant figures is 18.73 mm.

Therefore, we can conclude that out of the given options, pencil is 18.73 mm long.
