Answer:

C. 11 protons, 11 electrons, 12 neutrons

Explanation:

Sodium is an alkali metal whose symbol is Na and atomic number 11. It is highly reactive metal as it is ready to donate a single electron which is present in its outer shell. In each sodium (Na) atom there is 11 protons and 12 neutrons as its atomic mass is 23 (11+12) and number of electrons will be 11 in a neutal sodium atom.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Electroplating involves the coating of one metal on another metal. It is an electrochemical process. The positive electrode is the coating metal while the negative electrode is the metal on which the coating is to be performed.

Since copper is to be coated on an iron nail. A copper plate is made the positive electrode while the iron nail should be the negative electrode.

The electrolyte used in the process should be a copper salt e.g CuSO4 solution.

As electrolysis progresses, the copper electrode(positive electrode or anode) gradually wears away due to the fact that the copper ions are going into the solution and are being deposited on the iron nail.

Which of the following is an autotroph? a. mushroom b. tree c. deer d. wolf
aliina [53]

The right answer is b. Tree.

Some plants (like trees) have evolved with different unusual nutritional adaptations over time. Heterotrophic plants are plants that use only or partly a source of organic carbon to grow, unlike the most common autotrophic plants, which use inorganic carbon and water to grow, often through the process of photosynthesis (photoautotrophic).

Mutagens such as pollutants and uv light can cause mutations in dna
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

<u><em>They take nutrients needed by healthy cells, and as they grow they interfere with the function of normal cells and organs.</em></u>

Explanation:

Many mutations can lead to the formation of cancer. Cancer can be described as an abnormal type of cell division of the cells of the body. As cancer cells are the cells of the body dividing abnormally, the immune cells fail to fight them. These cells keep on dividing and also disturb the functioning of the neighbouring cells and tissues. They even take up most of the nutrients required by normal body cells hence, being very toxic for the normal cells.
