It is very difficult for an atom to accept a proton. It can only be done under very special circumstances. So A and C are both incorrect. I don't see how D is possible. The atom does lose 1 electron, but how it gets 21 is think air.

The answer is B which is exactly what happens.

Answer:

3.23*10^-32 m

Explanation:

To solve this, we apply Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

the principle states that, "if we know everything about where a particle is located, then we know nothing about its momentum, and vice versa." it also can be interpreted as "if the uncertainty of the position is small, then the uncertainty of the momentum is large, and vice versa"

Δp * Δx = h/4π

m(e).Δv * Δx = h/4π

If we make Δx the subject of formula, by rearranging, we have

Δx = h / 4π * m(e).Δv

on substituting the values, we have

for the electron

Δx = (6.63*10^-34) / 4 * 3.142 * 9.11*10^-31 * 4.95*10^-2

Δx = 6.63*10^-34 / 5.67*10^-31

Δx = 1.170*10^-3 m

for the bullet

Δx = (6.63*10^-34) / 4 * 3.142 * 0.033*10^-31 * 4.95*10^-2

Δx = 6.63*10^-34 / 0.021

Δx = 3.23*10^-32 m

therefore, we can say that the lower limits are 1.170*10^-3 m for the electron and 3.23*10^-32 for the bullet

In an experiment the mass of a calorimeter is 36.35 g . Express in micrometer ,millimetre and kg.

Andru [333]

Answer:

1. 36.35 g = 36.35E15 micrometer.

II. 36.35 g = 363.5 millimetre.

III. 36.35 g = 0.03635 kilogram.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass of calorimeter = 36.35 grams

To convert the mass in grams (g) to;

I. Micrometer

Conversion:

1 g = 1 exp 15 um

36.35 g = X um

Cross-multiplying, we have;

X = 36.35 * 1 exp 15 = 36.35 exp 15 um

36.35 g = 36.35E15 micrometer

II. Millimetre

Conversion:

1 g = 1 milliliter

36.35 g = X milliliter

Cross-multiplying, we have;

X = 36.35 * 1 = 36.35 milliliter

Next, we would convert milliliter to millimetre;

1 milliliter = 10 millimetre

36.35 milliliter = X millimetre

Cross-multiplying, we have;

X = 36.35 * 10 = 363.5 millimetre

36.35 g = 363.5 millimetre

III. Kilogram

Conversion:

1000 grams = 1 kilogram

36.35 g = X kilogram

Cross-multiplying, we have;

X * 1000 = 36.35 * 1

Dividing both sides by 1000, we have;

X = 36.35/1000 = 0.03635 kilogram

36.35 g = 0.03635 kilogram

Note:

g is the symbol for grams.
Exp (E) means exponential = 10
um is the symbol for micrometer.
