The electrical charge of an atom having 15 proton, 14 neutrons and 16 electrons is -1. The correct option is D.

What is an atom?

An atom is the smallest unit of any matter which comprises of central nucleus and electrons revolving around the nucleus in definite energy shells. The atom is made up of protons, neutrons and electrons.

The electrical charge of an atom can be calculated as,

Charge of an atom = number of protons - number of electrons

Charge = 15 - 16 = -1.

The neutrons are neutral and do not contribute to the charge, the protons are positively charged and electrons are negatively charged in an atom.

Therefore, the charge of an atom with 15 protons, 14 neutrons and 16 electrons is -1. The correct answer is option D.

A 0.8kg object displaces 500ml of water what is its specific gravity
worty [1.4K]

Specific gravity is the ratio of density of substance and density of water

We know that density of water = 1 g /mL at standard conditions

now as given that the 0.8 Kg of the substance / object is able to displace 500mL of water , it means that

Mass of object = 800g

The volume occupied by 800g of object = 500 mL

Density = mass / volume

Density of object = 800 / 500= 1.6 g / mL

The specific gravity of object = density of object  / density of water = 1.6 / 1 = 1.6 (no units)

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!
Akimi4 [234]

Explanation:

The magnet uses electromagnetic induction meaning it can be readily magnetized and demagnetized (using electricity) when required. When electricity is switched on, it becomes magnetized and lifts an object and when electricity is switched off, it loses magnetism and releases the object.

The magnetic is able to lift heavy objects because it has powerful conductor material (ferromagnetic iron) and the number of electromagnetic coils is many to induce a powerful magnetic force. The electric current, inducing the magnetism, is also powerful.

The table below shows the density of a sample of a mystery liquid you tested in the lab. Can you infer the identity of the subst
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

A. Yes, the substance must be water.

Explanation:

The density of a substance is unique to it. Density is defined the as the amount of substance contained per volume.

One of the ways of identifying a substance is to determine its density. Every matter is known to have their own specific densities. This makes them different from other substances. The density of gold is unique to it and it differs from that of silver.

In fact, water has density of 1.00gcm⁻³. Experimental errors and some little factors must have altered our expected figure. This a case of precision and accuracy in the experiment.
