Why is the mass of the third subatomic particle ignored?

Chemistry
1 answer:
dmitriy555 [2]1 year ago
3 0

Answer: The mass of electrons is mostly ignored because electrons are extremely small compared to neutrons and protons.

Explanation: A proton is about 1,836 times the size of an electron.

On the periodic table, the atomic number for each element can be found. This number is found by measuring the weight of 6.02 x 10^23 atoms of the element in grams. Electrons aren't ignored when finding exact math, but for the sake of simplification high school teachers will generally have you only count the number of protons and neutrons when calculating the mass of atoms.

The volume of carbon gas at 5.0 ATM was measured to be 363 ml. What will the pressure be if the volume is change to .00020 ml?
aleksley [76]

Answer:

The answer to your question is P2 = 9075000 atm

Explanation:

Data

Pressure 1 = P1 = 5 atm

Volume 1 = V1 = 363 ml

Pressure 2 = P2 = ?

Volume 2 = 0.0002 ml

Process

To solve this problem use Boyle's law

                 P1V1 = P2V2

-Solve for P2

                 P2 = P1V1/V2

-Substitution

                  P2 = (5 x 363) / 0.0002

-Simplification

                  P2 = 1815 / 0.0002

-Result

                 P2 = 9075000 atm

The fission of an atom that has a larger atomic number can be induced by bombarding the atom with
vova2212 [387]
Hello!

The fission of an atom that has a large atomic number can be induced by bombarding the atom with neutrons.

Nuclear fission occurs when a heavy nucleus divides into two or more lighter nuclei. This reaction is induced by the bombarding of neutrons into the nucleus, making it unstable (like throwing an orange to a perfectly arranged orange pyramid at the supermarket). The unstable nucleus breaks down into lighter elements, releasing more neutrons which contribute to the chain reaction.

Have a nice day!

Calculate the cost of gasoline for a 320 mile trip from Boston to New
Talja [164]
The cost of gasoline for the trip would cost $57.28 because you first divide 320 by 20 which gives you 16 than after that you do 16 multiplied by 3.58 which gives you $57.28 as your final product
