The element in question is Sodium

An atomic mass unit is defined as 1/12 th of the mass of carbon-12 atom.

The mass of an atom is mainly due to its protons and neutrons in the nucleus.

Weight of a proton is 1.6 x 10^-27 kg

Weight of a neutron is 1.6 x 10^-27kg

However weight of an electron is 9 x 10^-31kg and hence is negligible in calculation of amu

It is given that weight is 23 AMU and number of protons is 11

The protons in a nucleus also act as atomic number of the periodic table

Proton number 11 is the atomic number of Sodium

Hence the element is Sodium

List the bonding pairs H and I; S and O; K and Br; Si and Cl, H and F; Se and S; C and H in order of increasing covalent charact
stellarik [79]

Answer:

1. (S,O) < (Se,S) < (C,H) = (H,I) = (H,F) < (Si,Cl) < (K,Br)

Explanation:

The covalent character always increases down the group, this is because ionic character decreases down the group and also electronegativity.

In the same way, Covalent character always decreases across a period because electronegativity increases across a period.

The higher the electronegativity values between the two atoms, the more ionic it will be.

Goshia [24]

Answer:

The answer is: phospholipid molecules

Explanation:

The plasma membrane of a cell is consists of a lipid bilayer. This lipid bilayer, also known as the phospholipid bilayer, is a polar membrane composed of two layers of lipid molecules, usually amphipathic phospholipid molecules.

The amphipathic phospholipid molecules have a hydrophilic phosphate head on the exterior and a hydrophobic tail consisting of fatty acid chain on the interior of the membrane.
