Answer:

The charge will be "-1".

Explanation:

In a neutral atom there are protons and neutrons in the nucleus and the same number of electrons (as of protons) in the outer shells.

As given that there are four protons and 5 electrons, it means the given atom is not neutral.

An atom may have lesser number of electrons than that of protons or it may have more number of electrons.

If an atom has less number of electrons, it will carry positive charge

If an atom has more number of electrons, it will carry negative charge.

So the total electric charge on the atom will be "-1"

Neutrons are uncharged
proton (+4) + electrons (-5)= -1

Discuss the effect of changing the flow tube radius on flow rate.
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The flow rate of a tube is the volume of fluid flowing through the tube per unit time. The flowrate is proportional to the product of the velocity of the fluid through the tube, and the cross-sectional area of the tube.

That is

Q = AV

where

A is the area of the tube

V is the velocity of the tube

The cross-sectional area of the tube is proportional to the radius of the tube. From the above equation, we can deduce that if the velocity of the fluid flowing through the tube is held constant, the flowrate of the fluid through the tube will increase with an increase in the radius of the tube, and it will decrease with a decrease in the radius of the tube.

Can someone tell me the answer ?
ludmilkaskok [199]
The Aufbau principle states that, hypothetically, electrons orbiting one or more atoms fill the lowest available energy levels before filling higher levels (e.g., 1s before 2s). In this way, the electrons of an atom, molecule, or ion harmonize into the most stable electron configuration possible.
