If two protons and two neutrons are added to the nucleus of a carbon atom, what nucleus does it become?

Chemistry

If two protons are added to carbon, the chemical identity changes to oxygen, which is two spaces over horizontally on the periodic table. The number of protons is what we call the atomic number (Z), and this is what defines the identity of an element. Since we also added two neutrons, this is simply oxygen, or oxygen-16, the most abundant isotope of oxygen.

Why Are aquifers important to our freshwater supply? 5TH GRADE ANSWER c:
ANEK [815]

Explanation:

Aquifers are porous and permeable formations that stores ground water. The ground water system is made up of mostly fresh water.

  • An aquifer acts as a reserve for ground water in the environment.
  • By passing through different formations, water that recharges them are purified.
  • This makes them fresh and mostly free from salt intrusion

An aquifer is able to store this fresh water and it is is good prospect for sourcing ground water.

A sample of an ideal gas at 1.00 atm and a volume of 1.32 L was placed in a weighted balloon and dropped into the ocean. As the
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

When the pressure increases to 90.0 atm , the volume of the sample is 0.01467L

Explanation:

To answer the question, we note that

P₁ = 1.00 atm

V₁ = 1.32 L

P₂ = 90 atm.

According to Boyle's law, at constant temperature, the volume of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure

That is P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

Solving the above equation for V₂ we have

V_2 = \frac{P_1P_2}{P_2}  that is V₂ = \frac{1atm*1.32L}{90atm} = \frac{11}{750}L or 0.01467L

How is light energy converted to chemical energy?
ipn [44]

Answer:

Photosynthesis is the process in which light energy is converted to chemical energy in the form of sugars. In a process driven by light energy, glucose molecules (or other sugars) are constructed from water and carbon dioxide, and oxygen is released as a byproduct.
