Luster is the correct answer.
Answer:
d. why matter exists
Explanation:
The kind of questions that chemistry CANNOT answer is "why matter exists".
In Chemistry, question of how the properties, composition and structure of substances are is answered. Also, the transformations that these substances undergo, and the energy that they release or absorbe during the transformation processes are revealed in chemistry.
Chemistry can answer the question of what forms of matter exists but cannot answer why matter actually exists.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Higher velocity of particles
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
The diffusion rate is determined by a variety of factors which includes;
- Temperature such that the higher the temperature, the more kinetic energy the particles will have, so they will move and mix more quickly and the diffusion rate will be high.
- Concentration gradient such that the greater the difference in concentration, the quicker the rate of diffusion.
- Higher velocity of particles increases the diffusion rate as this means more kinetic energy by the particles and hence the particles will mix and move faster, thus higher diffusion rate.
Remember....
mass number= atomic number + number of neutrons
If the mass number is 19 and the atomic number is 9, then the number of neutrons is 19-9 which is 10.
