An ion of iron has an 26 protons, 30 neutrons, and 23 electrons. what are its atomic number, atomic mass, and net charge?
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

Z=26, A = 56, charge +3.

Explanation:

The atomic number is represented by Z. Is equal to the total number of protons that the atom has.  Z=26.

The atomic mass is represented by A. The number results from the total sum of protons and neutrons of an atom.  Both particles have a weight of 1 uma, are in the nucleus and give the mass to the atom.

Mass number (A) = atomic number (Z) + number of neutrons (N)

                        A = 26 + 30

                        A = 56

The net charge of the atom can be calculated by subtracting the negative charges from the positive ones. The positive charges come from the protons and the negative ones from the electrons.

26-23=3

This iron ion has a positive charge +3.

What is speed? If you walk 3 kilometers in 30 minutes, what is your average speed in kilometers per hour? Compare and contrast i
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

distance = 3 kilometres

time = 30 minutes or 0.5 hours

speed = distance/time = 3/0.5 = 6 Kmhr-1

Average speed is given by total distance covered divided by the total time taken while the instantaneous speed is the speed of an object at a particular instant or moment in time. Average speed refers to the whole journey while instantaneous speed refers to a particular point or instant in the journey.

distance= x

time = 3 hours

speed = 50 miles per hour

speed = distance/time

distance = speed * time

distance = 3 * 50

distance = 150 miles
