<span>a. x and y are atoms of the same element. 

If both atoms contain the same amount of protons, they are always the same element.

Answer:

a. X and y are atoms of the same element.

Explanation:

We conclude that the a. It is the right choice because for X and Y to be isotopes, they must have different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus.

X and Y have the same number of neutrons in the nucleus 14

In this case, X is an ion because it does not have the same number of protons in the nucleus as electrons, therefore it is charged (positively in this case)

And it has the same number of protons and electrons, therefore, it is electrically neutral.

the electronic configuration of Y is [Ne] 3s^2 3p^2

the electronic configuration of Y is[Ne] 3s^2 3p^1

to have a full shell the electrons in the sublayer <em>p</em> should be 6

Haley is trying to pull an object upward. The below forces are acting on the object.
kramer
Based on the given conditions, the gravitational force acted on the body is greater than the force upward by a quantity equal to 500 N. Therefore, the net force will cancel out and will remain an amount of 500N downward relative to the gravitational force exerted by the object.
