Answer: D) The effect of gravity on an object

Explanation: We're not talking about mass, we're talking about weight. Weight is measured by the force of gravity on a object. For examples, you might be 100 pounds on Earth but 12 pounds on the moon.

Answer:

The number of neutrons present in one atom of isotope of Silicon of mass 28 amu is 14 neutrons

Explanation:

Symbol of Si isotope

$_{14}^{28}\textrm{Si}$

Number of Neutron = Mass number - Atomic Number

Mass number = Total number of protons and neutrons present in the nucleus of the atom.For Si = 28 amu

Atomic Number = Total number of Protons present in the nucleus.

Si = 14

Number of neutron = 24 - 14

= 14

Which most likely indicates a chemical change has occurred?

Lyrx [107]

Chemical change can be determined when a substance change it's state of composition and is irreversible. Five evidences that chemical change has occured are, color change, formation of a precipitate, formation of gas, odor change, temperature change. Examples of chemical change are, combustion reactions, rusting iron, precipitate of AgCl.

Is matter continuous and therefore has no finer structure or is it discontinuous and thus made or tiny particles

Marta_Voda [28]

Matter is discontinuous, and it is made of tiny particles called atoms

Explanation:

Matter is not a continuous structure, but it consists of tiny particles called atoms.

An atom consists of three types of particles:

Proton: the proton is in the nucleus of the atom. it has a positive electric charge of $+1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$ (also called fundamental charge). Its mass is $1.67\cdot 10^{-27}kg$ .

Neutron: the neutron is also in the nucleus of the atom, but it has no electric charge. Its mass is similar to the mass of the proton (slightly heavier). Neutrons and protons are held together in the nucleus through the strong nuclear force.

Electron: electrons are found in a "cloud" outside the nucleus. Electron has negative electric charge equal to $-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$ . Its mass is much approximately 1800 times smaller than that of the proton, so it is considered as negligible.
