How many protons are in hydrogen -2

Physics
1 answer:
skad [1K]3 years ago
5 0
The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom determines
what element the atom is an atom of.
If there's one proton in the nucleus of an atom, then the atom
is an atom of Hydrogen.
If there's any other number of protons other than one in the nucleus
of an atom, then the atom is an atom of some other element.  It's not
an atom of Hydrogen. 

If you say you have an atom of Hydrogen, then I know there's exactly
one and only one proton in its nucleus.  If you call it Hydrogen-2, I know
you must be talking about the Atomic Weight of the nucleus, and there
must be a neutron in there too. 

If you called it Hydrogen-37, I would know that there would still be exactly
one proton there, lost in a crowd of 36 neutrons.

The equation shows neutralization of an acid and a base to produce a salt and water.
Lyrx [107]
This equation will be balanced if the x is a 2 because there are two sodiums on the reactants sides so there must be two sodiums on the products side

Hope this helps

Which of these instruments is listed with the wrong type of lens that it uses?
VikaD [51]

The wrong type of lens-Microscope, concave

Explanation:

A microscope Basically  uses t<u>wo convex lenses to magnify an object, or specimen.</u>

There are  2 lenses in a microscope

  1. <u>Object Lens:</u>The lens that is closer to the object
  2. <u>Eyepiece:</u>The lens that is closer to the eye

Both the object lens and the  eyepiece, is a convex lens.

Two 4.0 kg masses are 1.0 m apart on a frictionless table. Each has 1.0 μC of charge.What is the magnitude of the electric force
xeze [42]

Coulomb's law:

  Force = (<span>8.99×10⁹ N m² / C²<span>) · (charge₁) · (charge₂) / distance²

            = (</span></span><span>8.99×10⁹ N m² / C²<span>) (1 x 10⁻⁶ C) (1 x 10⁻⁶ C)  / (1.0 m)²

            = (8.99×10⁹ x 1×10⁻¹² / 1.0)  N

            =      8.99×10⁻³  N

            =        0.00899 N repelling.

Notice that there's a lot of information in the question that you don't need.
It's only there to distract you, confuse you, and see whether you know
what to ignore.

-- '4.0 kg masses';  don't need it. 
   Mass has no effect on the electric force between them.

-- 'frictionless table';  don't need it.
   Friction has no effect on the force between them,
only on how they move in response to the force.

Doubling an object’s height will have what effect on its potential energy due to gravity?
timurjin [86]
Potential energy due to gravity = Ep = mgh [symbols have their usual meaning ]
Evidently, HALVING the mass will make Ep , HALF its previous value. So, It will be halved.

Sarah throws a ball directly upward at the edge of a cliff with a starting velocity of 3.0 m/s
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is t = 0.92s

Explanation:

Initial velocity v​0 = 3.0 m/s

Displacement Δy = ?

Acceleration a = -9.8m/s2

Final velocity v = -6.0m/s

Time t=? Target unknown

We can use the kinematic formula missing Δy to solve for the target unknown t:

V=v0+at

We can rearrange the equation to solve to t:

V-v0=at

t= v-v0/a

Substituting the known value into the kinematic formula gives:

t= (-6.0m/s)-(3.0m/s)

————————————

-9.8m/s2

= -9m/s

—————-

-9.8m/s2

=0.92s
