The answer is D) a neutron.
When we say an atom's mass is, like 5 atomic mass units actually we are saying that the total number of the neutrons and protons in its nucleus is 5.
The mass of a neutron and a proton is each one atomic mass unit.
Mass of a neutron is approximately 1 atomic mass unit.
Comment above 100 percent correct
Answer: See below
Explanation:
1. a) 0.15 moles calcium carbonate (15g/100g/mole)
b) 0.15 moles CaO (molar ratio of CaO to CaCO3 is 1:1)
c) 8.4 grams CaO (0.15 moles)*(56 grams/mole)
2. a) 0.274 moles Na2O (17g/62 grams/mole)
b) 46.6 grams NaNO3 (2 moles NaNO3/1 mole Na2O)*(0.274 moles Na2O)*(85 g/mole NaNO3)
The answer would be D. The only minerals harder than corundum is diamond.
Nuclear energy is called the energy obtained by the transformation of atomic nuclei, so small and heavy clusters of particles inside the atom. Nuclear energy can be produced in two ways, by cleavage or synthesis of nuclei. Heavy nuclei of radioactive elements such as uranium or plutonium, can be split into two nuclei. By splitting are released from the nucleus of neutrons that collide with other nuclei causing them to split and subsequent emission of neutrons. This is called a chain reaction. The condition calls self-sustaining nuclear reaction is slowing down neutrons. For this purpose, a special substance, called moderator. The neutrons collide with the molecules of the moderator precipitate heating speed while the moderator. The resulting heat heats the water so that a couple who drives a turbine generating electricity. Another way of producing nuclear energy is nuclear fusion, in which nuclei combine to light elements. So far, fusion, however, failed to carry out so that it can be applied to the economy as a source of energy.
