An element's atomic number is 59. How many electrons would an atom of this element have?

1 answer:

6 0

Hi,
An element’s atomic number tells how many protons an atom of this element has. Protons have a positive electric charge, while electrons have a negative one. If an atom is electrically neutral (as in this case, otherwise it should have been specified) the number of protons and electrons are equal. So, an atom of the element would have 59 electrons.

Hope this helps! If my answer was not clear enough or you’d like further explanation please let me know. Also, English is not my first language, so I’m sorry for any mistake.

Why is the solar system considered a natural system

VashaNatasha [74]

The Solar System Is A Natural System Because Humans Didn't Make It. They Didn't Put It There. Natural Is When Something Was There, That Humans Didn't Create, Didn't Put There, It Was A Natural Thing. Buildings Are Not Natural. We Made Buildings. They Are Man Made. The Sky, Is Natural. We Can Not Make The Sky.

a sprinter starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 0.16 ms ^-2 over a distance of 50.0 meters . How fast is the athlete tr

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Final velocity v = 4 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity u = 0 m/s

Acceleration a = 0.16 m/s²

Distance s = 50 m

Find:

Final velocity v

Computation:

Using; v² = u² + 2as

v² = (0)² + 2(0.16)(50)

v² = 16 m/s

v = 4 m/s

Final velocity v = 4 m/s

Which data set has the largest standard deviation

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

<em>The data set marked as B has the largest standard deviation</em>

Explanation:

<u>Standard Deviation</u>

It's a number used to show how a set of measurements is spread out from the average value. A low standard deviation means that most of the values are close to the average. A high standard deviation means that the numbers are more spread out.

The formula for the standard deviation is

$\displaystyle \sigma=\sqrt{\frac{\sum (x_i-\mu)^2}{n}}$
