Because of extra electrons

All other atoms have less stable electron numbers, so they react with each other and share electrons to be more stable. The most reactive elements tend to be short one or two electron or have one or two extra electrons.

How are Parkinson's disease and ALS similar?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

Both diseases affect the control of voluntary muscles.

Explanation:

Parkinson's disease is a progressive brain disease that affects movement. It affects the nerve cells that produce dopamine in the part of the brain called substantia nigra. The symptoms include shaking, stiffness, and difficulty with walking, balance, and coordination. Symptoms get worse with time, often leaving people with difficulty walking and talking.

ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) is a progressive nervous system disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. The first symptoms usually involve muscle weakness, and as the disease progresses, it results in the loss of muscle control.

Scientists don't know the exact cause of these diseases. As the cause is not known, there is no exact way to prevent them. There is no cure for them, either. The treatment is focused on the management of symptoms.

This is why the third option is the correct one.

Liquid water boiling in an open pan on a stove is our system. Is the system open or closed? What boundary transfers are happenin
valina [46]

Answer:

It's an open system, tranfering heat through a rigid, diathermal wall and matter through an imaginary and permeable wall, and it is not at steady state.

Explanation:

  • An <em>open system</em> is that that interacts with its surroundings exchanging energy and matter. In an open pan with boiling water you have an open system because steam (matter) is leaving the system, as well as heat (energy) through the pan/stove.
  • A<em> boundary</em> is what separates the system from its surroundings, there are many types of boundaries, based on how they transfer energy they can be diathermal (conducting heat) or adiabatic (insulating), on their rigidity they can be rigid, flexible, imaginary or movable and based on their permeability. For the system described we have an imaginary boundary on top that is also permeable allowing matter to go out or in the system, and another wall (the stove/pan itself that is rigid and impermeable avoiding the loss of matter and diathermal, allowing the conduction of heat.
  • It is said that a system is at a<em> steady state</em> when the variables that define that system remain constant over time. In an open pan, you can't fully control those variables, you'll have matter and energy scaping from it with no way to regulate it.

I hope you find interesting and useful this information! good luck!

A small positively charged ball is moved closer to a large, positively charged ball. which describes how the small ball likely r
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

This is just my guess, but since opposites attract, then im guessing that alikes repel each other. So, they will go away from each other when the ball is released (I think).

Explanation:

Hope this helps! If it did, please mark it as brainliest! It would help a lot! Thanks! :D
