Answer: Potential Energy

Explanation:

The term that best describes the stored energy based on the position or chemical composition of an object is its potential energy. It is the energy possessed by a body due to its virtue of its position. Any body at rest possesses this energy because they are in one position (not moving).

An object thrown up possesses potential energy at its maximum height before falling under gravity because the object is at rest at the maximum height.

Determine the missing species:

Galina-37 [17]

Answer: 4. $^{0}_{-1}\textrm{e}$ and $^{0}_{1}\textrm{e}$

Explanation:

a) The given reaction is $^{41}_{20}\textrm{Ca}+^{x}_{y}\textrm{X}\rightarrow ^{41}_{19}\textrm {K}$

As the mass on both reactant and product side must be equal:

$41+x=41$

$x=0$

As the atomic number on both reactant and product side must be equal:

$20+y=19$

$y=-1$

$^{41}_{20}\textrm{Ca}+^{0}_{-1}\textrm{e}\rightarrow ^{41}_{19}\textrm {K}$

b) $^{15}_{8}\textrm{O}\rightarrow ^{15}_{7}\textrm{N}+^{x}_{y}\textrm{X}$

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

15 =15 + x

x = 0

Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side

8 = 7 + y

y = 1

$^{15}_{8}\textrm{O}\rightarrow ^{15}_{7}\textrm{N}+^{0}_{1}\textrm{e}$

Which pairing below does not correctly match the scientist with the contribution to the understanding of the atom? A. Proust and

Lyrx [107]

The answer would be C. In fact, letter A already defines the Law of Definite Proportions. On the other hand, J.J. Thomson was responsible for the discovery of electrons through cathode ray tube experiments. The rest of the choices are true.
