Answer:

electron

Explanation:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol = e⁻

Mass = 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg

Mass in amu = 1/1838 = 5.4 × 10⁻⁴amu

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

While neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P⁺

Symbol of neutron= n⁰

Mass of proton=1.672623×10⁻²⁷ Kg

Mass of neutron=1.674929×10⁻²⁷Kg

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom

This is very urgent please hurry!!?!!??!

Answer:

The greatest acceleration when the unbalanced force is applied will be experienced in :

A) The box with a mass of 2 kg

Explanation:

According to second law of motion the external unbalanced force is directly proportional to rate of change of momentum.

F = (Final momentum - initial momentum)/time

Force is equal to the product of mass and acceleration

F = m x a

Here a= acceleration

m = mass of the object

If Force is constant then acceleration is inversely proportional to mass

$a =\frac{F}{m}$

A) The box with a mass of 2kg

F = 8 N

$a =\frac{8}{2}$

a = 4 m/s2

B) The box with the mass of 4kg

$a =\frac{8}{4}$

a = 2 m/s2

C) The box with a mass of 6kg

$a =\frac{8}{6}$

a = 1.33 m/s2

D) The box with a mass of 8kg

$a =\frac{8}{8}$

a = 1 m/s2

1.65g of zinc is used to make 8g of zinc iodide. How much iodine is required for this reaction?

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

6.45 g of iodine, I₂

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

Zn + I₂ —> ZnI₂

Next, we shall determine the mass of Zn and I₂ that reacted from the balanced equation. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of Zn = 65 g/mol

Mass of Zn from the balanced equation = 1 × 65 = 65 g

Molar mass of I₂ = 127 × 2 = 254 g/mol

Mass of I₂ from the balanced equation = 1 × 254 = 254 g

SUMMARY:

From the balanced equation above,

65 g of Zn reacted with 254g of I₂.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of f I₂ needed to react with 1.65 g of Zn. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

65 g of Zn reacted with 254g of I₂.

Therefore, 1.65 g of Zn will react with = (1.65 × 254)/65 = 6.45 g of I₂.

Thus, 6.45 g of iodine, I₂ is needed for the reaction.

An isotope of carbon has 8 neutrons. What is the correct hyphenated symbol for this isotope?

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Carbon-14 or C-14

Explanation:

Since the isotope is a carbon isotope, it means the the atomic number of the isotope is 6.

The atomic number of an element is the proton number.

Therefore, the isotope has a proton number of 6

Now we need to obtain the mass number of isotope in order to write the symbol of the isotope. This is illustrated below:

Mass number = Proton +Neutron

Proton = 6

Neutron = 8

Mass number = 6 + 8

Mass number = 14

Therefore, the symbol of the isotope is carbon-14 or C-14
