An atom has an atomic number of 12 and a mass number of 25. How many neutrons does the atom have?

Chemistry

Simple. The atomic number is the number of protons (12) and the mass number is the number of neutrons and protons combined. So you'd subtract 12 from 25 (25-12=) and that'd get you 13 as your answer. If you need to find the number of electrons, it'll be the same as the number of protons unless it has a certain charge and if it does, if it's positive it has more protons (+) than electrons (-), if it is negative it has more electrons (- negatively charged) than protons (+ positively charged)

As you move from left to right across a period, what happens to the atomic radii?
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

They decrease, because of the stronger effective nuclear charge.

Explanation:

  • Atomic radii decreases from left to right across a period.
  • This is due to the increase in the no. of protons and electrons through the period.
  • One proton has a greater effect than one electron.
  • So, electrons are attracted towards the nucleus and resulting in a smaller atomic radii.

<em>Thus, the right choice is: They decrease, because of the stronger effective nuclear charge.</em>

A pendulum _______ energy with each swing.<br><br> a.)<br> gains<br> b.)<br> loses
meriva

Answer: b) loses.

Explanation: As the pendulum swings back and forth, the balance between the two types of energy changes constantly. At some points in its swing, the pendulum has more kinetic energy. At other points, it has more potential energy. No pendulum can swing forever because the system loses energy on account of friction.
