Hmm, friction maybe? I guess it depends on how fast she stopped?

Neutral atoms contain equal numbers of A protons and electrons. B protons and neutrons. C electrons and neutrons. D protons, ele

Verdich [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For 1:</u> The correct answer is Option A.

<u>For 2:</u> The correct answer is Option B.

<u>For 3:</u> The correct answer is Option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>For 1:</u>

Atomic number is defined as the number of electrons or number of protons that are present in a neutral atom. It is represented as Z.

Z = Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of protons

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and number of neutrons present in an atom. It is represented as A.

A = Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

Hence, the correct answer is Option A.

<u>For 2:</u>

The isotopic representation of an atom is: $_Z^A\textrm{X}$

where,

Z = Atomic number of the atom

A = Mass number of the atom

X = Symbol of the atom

We are given:

An isotopic representation of beryllium atom: $_4^9\textrm{Be}$

Thus, the number '4' represents the atomic number of beryllium, number '9' represents the mass number of beryllium atom.

Hence, the correct answer is Option B.

<u>For 3:</u>

In CO compound:

Mass of oxygen = 16 g

Mass of carbon = 12 g

In $CO_2$ compound:

Mass of oxygen = 32 g

Mass of carbon = 12 g

Thus, the ratio of mass of oxygen in $CO_2$ and CO is:

$CO_2:CO=32:16=2:1$

Hence, the correct answer is Option C.

Which of the following are strongly hydrogen bonded in the liquid phase? A) nitrilesB) esters C) secondary amides D) acid chlori

-Dominant- [34]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Chemical formula of a secondary amide is R'-CONH-R, where R and R' can be same of different alkyl or aryl groups. Here, the hydrogen atom of amide is attached to more electronegative oxygen atom of the C=O group.

Therefore, the hydrogen atom will be more strongly held by the electronegative oxygen atom. As a result, there will be strongly hydrogen bonded in the liquid phase of secondary amide.

Whereas chemical formula of nitriles is RCN, ester is RCOOR' and acid chlorides are RCOCl. As no hydrogen bonding occurs in any of these compounds because hydrogen atom is not being attached to an electronegative atom.

Thus, we can conclude that secondary amides are strongly hydrogen bonded in the liquid phase.

Laura has 3 beakers. Each contain 200cm3 of colourless liquid. Describe how Laura could determine which beakers contain pure wat

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Laura can look for a transparent and translucent liquid and hence determine which beaker has water and which has solution

Explanation:

Pure water is a compound that is transparent in color. However, a solution is a liquid mixture comprising of a solvent or a solute. The atoms of solute occupy space between the atoms of solvent and hence are said to dissolve in it. Water can be a solvent.

Thus, if the beaker has a transparent liquid in it, then it would be pure water while a beaker having a translucent liquid, then it would be a solution

temperature is the transfer of thermal energy from one object to another. Please select the best answer from the choices provide

Hunter-Best [27]

The statement above is FALSE.

Temperature is the degree of coldness or hotness of a body while heat transfer is the transfer of thermal energy from one object to another object. Temperature tells us how cold or hot a body is and it can be measured in Celsius, Kelvin or Fahrenheit. The thermometer is the instrument that is used in the measurement of temperature. Change in temperature is an important indicator that is used in various ways in humans and external systems.
