Answer:
An atom is made of up subatomic particles called protons, neutrons and electrons. The center of an atom is called the nucleus and is where the protons and neutrons are held while electrons orbit the nucleus in orbital shells. A electron has a negative charge, a proton has a positive charge, and a neutron has no charge (neutral).
The atomic number of a atom is the total amount of the atom's protons. In a neutral atom (Not an ion), the amount of electrons is the same as the protons. Therefore, the atomic number also tells the amount of electrons in the atom.
A ion is a negatively or positively charged particle due to the giving or taking of electrons with one or more atoms (Called an ionic bond). An atom that gives away electrons becomes positively charge because that atom now has more protons than neutrons. An atom that takes an electron becomes negatively charge because that atom now has more electrons than protons.
Atomic Mass is the sum of an atom proton and neutrons. To determine how many neutron an atom has, subtract the atomic mass from the atomic number. Electrons do not play a part in atomic mass as their mass is 1/1,836 of a proton's mass.
A isotope is two or more forms of the same element that contain equal amounts of protons but different amount of neutrons.
Answer:
<span>D) combine light nuclei
</span>
Explanation:
Fission and fusion both deal with the alteration of atoms in order to produce energy. However, they are actually opposite processes, this is because:
1- Fission occurs when an atomic nucleus is split/divided into two forming two atoms
2- Fusion occurs when two light atomic nuclei combine together to form a single atom.
Hope this helps :)
Oxygen has 8 electrons it takes 2 electrons to get config of neon and 2 electros mean -2 charge
Answer:
1.5M
Explanation:
Molarity = moles/volume
0.60 mol / 0.40 L = 1.5 M
