Chemistry
1 answer:
Natalija [7]3 years ago
6 0
Atomic elements consist of a nucleus that contains protons and neutrons. Protons carry a positive charge whilst neutrons are electrically neutral. In light elements with an atomic number less than 20, the neutron to proton ratio is generally equal to 1:1. This changes for heavier elements since the Coulomb interaction between many protons gets stronger and demands more neutrons for the nucleus to remain stable.

Question 4
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

A. She can run the same distance in a shorter amount of time.

Explanation:

Speed can be computed with the formula:

v = \dfrac{d}{t}

Where:

v = speed

d = distance

t = time

So if you look at the formula, distance there tells you how far an object has traveled, and the time tells us how long it took to cover that distance. As you can see, speed and time are <u>inversely proportional. </u>This means that as one goes up, the other goes down. So if we reduce time travelling a certain distance, the speed increases.

20.0 mL of 0.06 M HCl (in a flask) is titrated with 0.04 M NaOH (in a burette). How many milliliters of NaOH needs to be used to
Liula [17]
<span>0.0200 L X 0.06 mol/L HCl = 1.2X10^-3 mol HCl
Moles NaOH added to reach equivalence point = 1.2X10^-3 mol NaOH
Volume NaOH = 1.2X10^-3 mol / 0.0400 M NaOH = 0.030 L NaOH = 30 mL NaOH
</span>
D.There is a rapid change in pH near the equivalence point (pH = 7)
hope it helps
