An atom of sodium has a larger mass than an atom of neon. How is this possible when neon has so many more valence electrons?

The electrons contribute just about zero to the mass of an atom.
It takes more than 1,800 electrons to make the mass of one
proton or neutron.

The naturally occurring element with the most complex atom is
Uranium. That's element #92 , so a neutral uranium atom has
92 electrons.  It would take almost exactly 20 times that many
electrons to add the mass of one proton or neutron to the atom!
(And no other element has that many electrons in an atom of it.)

The Burj Khalifa is the tallest building in the world at 828 m. How much work would a man with a weight of 700 N do if he climbe
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

579600J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of the building  = 828m

Weight of the man  = 700N

Unknown:

Work done by the man  = ?

Solution:

The work done by the man is the same as the potential energy expended.

 Work done:

             Work done  = Weight x height  = 700 x 828

        Work done  = 579600J

Calculate the total resistance in a series circuit made up of resistances of 3Ω, 4Ω, and 5Ω.
-BARSIC- [3]
The total resistance in a series circuit is equal to the sum of all resistors (R total = ΣRi).

R total = R1 + R2 + R3 = (3 + 4 + 5) Ω = 12 Ω

What subatomic particle acts like a mini-magnet?
Semenov [28]
 The subatomic particles that acts like a mini-magnet is electron. Electrons are negatively charged sub atomic particles in an atom. The electron spin is a property of an electron that makes it behave like it's spinning; a spinning electron produces a magnetic field that makes it behave like a tiny magnet in an atom.
