3 0

Answer:

20 neutrons

Explanation:

This will get you the mass number of the most abundant potassium isotope. You now know that the most abundant isotope of potassium contains 20 neutrons. All isotopes of potassium will have the same number of protons inside their nucleus, i.e. 19 protons.

I hope this helps you.

GalinKa [24]
The initial value of P*V = 0.100*150 atm-m³ 
<span> Each balloon has a volume of (4/3)*π*r³ and N balloons have a volume of N*(4/3)*π*r³ 
</span><span> When all the balloons are inflated, the pressure in the tank is the same as the pressure in the balloons, so the final value of P*V is

An ice cube is placed in a microwave oven.
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

It takes 266 seconds to melt the ice.

Explanation:

Given data

  • Power of the microwave oven (P): 125 Watt
  • Heat supplied to the ice (Q): 33,200 Joule
  • Time for the melting (t): to be determined

In order to determine the time required to melt the ice, we can use the following expression.

P = Q/t

t = Q / P = 33,200 J/ 125 W = 266 s

It takes 266 seconds to melt the ice.

Hubble law how did astronomers gather the information needed to establish the law?
Korvikt [17]
They measured the wavelength of light emitted by stars using spectrometers and found it was being redshifted.
This implied the stars were moving away aka the space between the scientists and the star was expanding
