The model below shows an atom of an element. 10 light gray and 8 dark gray balls sit at the center with 2 concentric black rings
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The Atomic Number of the atom of an element whose model is given is "8" that is option no. 'C' in the question.

Explanation:

An Atom comprises of 3 basic structures that are Protons, Neutrons and Electrons. The central part is the Nucleus which contains protons and neutrons having positive charge and no charge respectively. The electrons are revolving around the nucleus in electronic shells having the negative charge.

<u><em>ATOMIC NUMBER: </em></u>

Atomic number is the number of protons present inside the nucleus of an atom and it determines the place of that particular atom in the <u>Periodic Table.</u>

In the model, given in the question, the nucleus contains 2 types of balls dark gray colored and light gray colored. The key at the bottom shows the dark gray colored ball as having a positive charge and thus it represents the atomic number for the given atom of element which is <u><em>EIGHT (8).</em></u>

So, the atomic number for the given atom is 8 which is element OXYGEN.

A piece of unknown metal with mass 68.6 g is heated to an initial temperature of 100 °C and dropped into 84 g of water (with an
laila [671]

The specific heat of metal is c = 3.433 J/g*⁰C.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

mass of metal = 68.6 g

t metal = 100 °C

mass water = 84 g

t water = 20 °C

final temperature = 52.1  °C

Required

The specific heat

Solution

Heat can be formulated :

Q = m.c.Δt

Q absorbed by water = Q released by metal

84 x 4.184 x (52.1-20)=68.6 x c x (100-52.1)

11281.738=3285.94 x c

c = 3.433 J/g*⁰C.

At 25oC, three moles of a gas occupy a volume of 4.0 L at 1.9 kPa. If the volume increases to 12.0 L, what will the new pressure
givi [52]
The answer:
according to Boyle's law concerning Pressure (P), Volume (V), Temperature (T) and number of mole (n) , we have the famous formula:

PiVi = Pf Vf, 

Pi=1.9kPa
Vi= 4L
Vf = 12L
T=25
n=3 
Pf = ?
let's find the value of Pf
from the equation
PiVi   = Pf Vf  we can have Pf= PiVi  / Vf

Pf = 1.9*4 / 12 = 0.63

so the answer is <span>B. 0.63 kPa</span>

Consider the reaction 2xy+z2⇌2xyz which has a rate law of rate= k[xy][z2] select a possible mechanism for the reaction.
Tasya [4]
We can dictate the mechanism of the reaction by looking at the exponents of the reactants in the reaction rate equation. Since [xy] has an exponent of 1, then the reaction follows the first order reaction with respect to xy. Similarly, the reaction follows the first order with respect to z₂. Then, the overall is the sum of each of their orders which is 2.

During radioactive decay, the __________ isotope decays into a ____________ isotope that has a different ___________________ num
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer: Please find answer in explanation column

Explanation:

During radioactive decay, the __unstable ________ isotope decays into a _stable ___________ isotope that has a different ____proton _______________ number

Or

During radioactive decay, the _ unstable parent nuclide ________ isotope decays into a _stable daughter nuclide ___________ isotope that has a different ____proton _______________ number.

There are 3 types of radioactive decay;alpha, beta and gamma, Of which the above clearly explains the beta decay. In beta decay, the unstable isotope having excess neutrons  will undergo a beta decay emitting a beta particle.( ⁰₋₁e) causing the nucleus to loose a neutron but gain a proton.

Some heavy unstable isotopes which undergo radioactive (beta decay ) to become stable isotopes  are phosphorus-32, strontium-90, iodine-131

Using Strontium 90 as an example , we have

⁹⁰₃₈St ----->⁹⁰₃₉Y + ⁰₋₁e

Strontium an unstable isotope undergoes a beta radioactive decay to form Yttrium.
