If you have 5 protons and 6 neutrons, how many electrons would you add to make a neutral atom?

Mathematics

Goshia [24]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct option is;

5 electrons

Step-by-step explanation:

The charge of the proton is equal to 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹C while the charge of one electron is -1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹C

Therefore, given that the atom is to be electrically neutral, we have;

The initial charge of the atom = 5 × 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹C = 8.01 × 10⁻¹⁹C

The charge of the added electron + The charge of the present proton = 0

Therefore;

The charge of the added electron + 8.01 × 10⁻¹⁹C = 0

The charge of the added electrons = 0 - 8.01 × 10⁻¹⁹C = -8.01 × 10⁻¹⁹C

The charge of one electron = -1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹C

The number of electrons = The charge of the added electrons/(The charge of one electron)

The number of electrons = -8.01 × 10⁻¹⁹C/(-1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹C) = 5 electrons

The number of electrons to be added = 5 electrons.

Answer:

C.   G(x) = (x+3)^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Inside the parenthesis, adding or subtracting numbers moves the shape along the x-axis. BUT signs have opposite effects. Adding a number moves the shape towards the negative side. Subtracting a number moves it to the positive side.

Answer:

The temperature at 1,000 feet will be 56.4ºF; at 2,000 feet it will be 52.8ºF; and at 3,000 feet it will be 49.2ºF.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that W. Altus is climbing 3,000 feet to the top of a mountain, starting at a temperature of 60ºF, which decreases 3.6ºF every 1,000 feet of elevation, to determine the temperature every 1,000 feet of elevation, the following calculations must be performed:

0 feet = 60ºF

1,000 feet = 60ºF - 3.6ºF = 56.4ºF

2,000 feet = 56.4ºF - 3.6ºF = 52.8ºF

3,000 feet = 52.8ºF - 3.6ºF = 49.2ºF

Thus, the temperature at 1,000 feet will be 56.4ºF; at 2,000 feet it will be 52.8ºF; and at 3,000 feet it will be 49.2ºF.

Which equation represents a like that passes through (4,1/3) and has a slope of 3/4?
elixir [45]
The slope intercept form is y = mx + b
you need to find the equation that has a slope of 3/4 and passes through (4,1/3)

Plug in the given into the equation
y = 3/4x + b
to solve for the y-intercept, plug in the given coordinate that the line passes through

1/3 = 3/4(4) + b
1/3 = 3 + b
subtract 3 from both sides 
-8/3 = b

now back to the slope intercept equation
y = mx + b
plug in the slope and y-intercept
y = 3/4x - 2 2/3
or 
y = 3/4x - 8/3


Hope this helps :)
