Protons cannot be lost without the atoms becoming an entirely different element. Elements can infact have different numbers of neutrons within the same element, but neutrons are not related to the electrical charge. The answer is c. electrons.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

There are 3 subatomic particles present in an atom. They are: protons, electrons and neutrons.

  • Protons: They carry positive charger and are found in nucleus.
  • Electrons: They carry negative charge and are found around the nucleus.
  • Neutrons: They dos not carry any charge and are found in nucleus.

An ion is formed when an atom looses or gains electron.

  • When an atom looses electrons, it will form a positive ion known as cation.
  • When an atom gains electrons, it will form a negative ion known as anion.

Hence, the correct answer is Option C.

Bond [772]

Answer:

average for silk =141"

average for cotton =96"

average for nylon = 70"

if you desire a slower falling parachute to protect the body from damage,

silk is the best

if you desire a faster falling parachute to escape enemy bullets,

nylon is the best

Explanation:

Homework 1

Problem Solving

1. Kelvin and Xavier were doing an investigation on parachutes. One of them suggested that the type of material the parachute was made from had an effect on how long it took to reach the ground. Their results are given in

the table below.

(a) Calculate the average time in seconds for each material.

Develop a demonstration to show how weight is not the same thing as mass
maksim [4K]

Answer with Explanation:

"Mass" and "weight" should never be used interchangeably with each other. Mass refers to the <u>total amount of matter</u><u> that can be measured in an object, </u>while weight refers to the<u> measure of the</u><u> force of gravity</u><u> that is acting on the object's mass.</u>

The mass of an object is<u> constant</u> (meaning, it doesn't change even if the object will be placed on another location) while the weight of an object relies on the <em>force of gravity.</em> So, this means that your mass on Earth and on the moon are identical, however, your weight on Earth and on the Moon are different. You will weigh lesser on the Moon because it has a lesser surface gravity than that of Earth.

So, this explains the answer.

guapka [62]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

What the equation is tell you is that for every 3 mols of NO2 you get 2 mol of HNO3

3 mol NO2 / 2 mol HNO2 ===> 300.00 mol NO2 / x   Cross multiply

3x = 2 * 300

3x = 600                 Divide by 3

3x/3 = 600/3           Do the division

x = 200.00
