Answer:

D. They have the same number of protons as electrons.

Explanation:

Protons are found in the nucleus of the atom and have a positive charge while electrons orbit around the nucleus and have a negative charge. Usually, in a neutral atom of an element, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. This is why the atom has no charge because the positive and negative charges cancel out. When an atom loses an electron its charge turns positive while when it gains an electron its charge turns negative.

What is 694,563,239 rounded to the nearest thousand
lina2011 [118]
694,563,239 rounded to the nearest thousand is 694,563.
 
It's because the first digit from the right is for ones, second for tens, third for hundreds and fourth for thousands and that's the one that we should take a closer look at. You can round it either to 3 or 4, depends on the digit of hundreds. In this case 3239 is clearly closer to 3000 than 4000, that's why we round it to 694,563, not 694,564.

How many miles of O2 can be produced by letting 12.00 miles of KC103 react?
Marat540 [252]
 2KClO3 --> 2KClO2 + O2 
    12                               6    (moles) 
The ratio of KClO3 and O2 is 2:1. This means 2 moles of KClO3 can create 1 mole of O2. So 12 moles of KClO3 will create 6 moles of O2.
