Answer is B) - neutrons.


Both protons and neutrons contribute to the mass of an atom. But ₈¹⁷O atom has atomic number as 8. Hence, number of protons is 8. Atomic mass of the given atom is 17.


Atomic mass = number of protons + number of neutrons


Hence, number of neutrons in the given atom is 17 - 8 = 9.


So, the number of neutrons is greater than the number of protons. Hence the greatest composition of ₈¹⁷O atom is neutrons by mass.

A wave has a frequency of 3,5MHz and a wavelength of 85,5 m. What is the wave velocity through
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

velocity = 29925×10⁶ m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

Frequency = 35 MHz

Wavelength = 855 m

Velocity = ?

Solution:

MHz to Hz

35×10⁶ Hz

Formula:

<em>velocity = Wavelength × Frequency</em>

velocity = 855 m × 35×10⁶ Hz

velocity = 29925×10⁶ m/s

Hz = s⁻¹
