Answer: 0.007044 g

Explanation:

1) mass defect is the difference between the mass of the nucleus and the sum of the masses of the protons and neutrons.

3) He has two protons.

4) The istope given is ³₂ He, which means it has 2 protons and 1 neutron.

5) The masses of neutrons and protons are taken from a table (from a textbook or the internet)

Mass of 2 mol of protons: 2 × 6.022 × 10 ²³ protons/mol × 1.6726 × 10 ⁻²⁴ g/mol = 2.014447944 g

Mass of 1 mol of neutrons = 1 × 6.022 × 10²³ neutrons/mol × 1.6749 × 10 ⁻²⁴ g/mol = 1.00862478 g

Sum = 2.014447944 g + 1.00862478 g = 3.023072724 g

6) mass deffect = 3.023072724g - 3.016029 g = 0.007043724

7) Round to 4 significant figures: 0.007044 g

That is the answer: 0.007044 g

Which is the best insulator? metal, glass, plastic, or Styrofoam?
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Styrofoam would be the best insulator because it traps the air in small pockets, blocking the flow of heat energy.

Which is the result of mitosis and cytokinesis?
Leno4ka [110]
During cytokinesis, the cytoplasm of the cell is divided in half, and the cell membrane grows to enclose each cell, forming two separate cells as a result. The end result of mitosis and cytokinesis is two genetically identical cells where only one cell existed before.

A ball of mass m on a string of length L is attached to a pivot. The ball is released from rest while the string is parallel to
mash [69]

Answer:

L/2

Explanation:

Neglect any air or other resistant, for the ball can wrap its string around the bar, it must rotate a full circle around the bar. This means the ball should be able to swing to the top position where it's directly above the bar. By the law of energy conservation, this happens when the ball is at the same level as where it's previously released vertically. It means the swinging radius around the bar must be at least half of the string length.

So the distance d between the bar and the pivot should be at least L/2
