How dose an atom change if all of its electrons are removed

Physics
1 answer:
cluponka [151]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The atom becomes a positively charged ion.

Explanation:

  1. The building blocks of an atom are protons, neutrons, and electrons.
  2. The protons and neutrons present in the core of the atom are called nucleus.
  3. The electrons are scattered in an ordered way around the nucleus.
  4. The protons are positively charged and the electrons are negatively charged particles. The neutrons do not possess any charges.
  5. Binding energy is supplied to the atom to remove an electron.
  6. It is possible to remove the electrons of the lighter elements.
  7. When an electron is removed from the hydrogen atom. It becomes positively charged ion or simply proton.
  8. When all of the electrons are removed from the helium atom, it becomes a positively charged α particle.
  9. It is practically very difficult to remove all of the electrons from the heavier elements.
  10. When all of the electrons are removed from an atom it becomes an unstable positively charged ion.

The United States spends over $20 billion a year on space exploration through NASA. Do you think that this has been worth the co
-BARSIC- [3]

Sunday, July 20, marked 45 years since the United States put the first two astronauts safely on the moon. The cost for the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo programs was more than $25 billion at the time more like $110 billion in today’s world. The ensuing U.S. space efforts have cost an additional $196 billion for the shuttle and $50 billion for the space station. NASA’s total inflation-adjusted costs have been more than $900 billion since its creation in 1958 through 2014 (more than $16 billion per year). Looking back, have we gotten our money’s worth from the investment?

Statement A: Area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.4 mm.
pochemuha

Explanation:

Formula for calculating the area of a  rectangle A = Length *width

For statement A;

Given area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.4 mm.

Area of the rectangle = 2.536mm * 1.4mm

Area of the rectangle = 3.5504mm²

The rule of significant figures states that we should always convert the answer to the least number of significant figure amount the given value in question. Since 1.4mm has 2 significant figure, hence we will convert our answer to 2 significant figure.

Area of the rectangle = 3.6mm² (to 2sf)

For statement B;

Given area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.41 mm.

Area of the rectangle = 2.536mm * 1.41mm

Area of the rectangle = 3.57576mm²

Similarly, Since 1.41mm has 3 significant figure compare to 2.536 that has 4sf, hence we will convert our answer to 3 significant figure.

Area of the rectangle = 3.58mm² (to 3sf)

Based on the conversion, it can be seen that 3.6mm²  is greater than 3.58mm², hence the area of rectangle in statement A is greater than the area of the rectangle in statement B.

Which of the following is a possible use for nuclear energy?
belka [17]
<span>Nuclear energy can be used to power all of the above choices. Nuclear power plants produce radioactive waste that must be stored properly. It is very impossible for a nuclear power plant to have no waste at all since lots of chemicals are used to create the process as it gives energy to other machines, weapons such as bombs and  powering submarines.  Radioactive waste can not be released into local water supplies since the wastes are very radioactive and may cause mutation to the fishes and bioaccumulation which will affect humans as well. It will also cause air pollution if the chemicals are not stored properly.</span>

saveliy_v [14]
Hi there!

Two possible answers are air resistance and friction.

Friction is caused by the rubbing of the surface of the ground and the surface of the object. Although ice doesn't have much friction, it can still cause friction.

Air resistance is caused by friction between the air and the object. As the object moves along a surface, it collides into many air particles; thus, it slows down.

Hope this helps.
Have an awesome day! :)
