Lorico [155]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

In order to maintain electrical neutrality, +3 nC charge which is present in the cavity tends to attract -3 nC charge in the inner surface of cavity.

Since, it is given that -3 nC charge is present in the hollow cavity. So, in order to maintain electrical neutrality -3 nc charge has to be present on the surface of the metal.

Thus, we can conclude that the total charge on the exterior surface of the metal is -3 nC.

Definition of proton and example
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

An elementary particle that is identical with the nucleus of the hydrogen atom, that along with the neutron is a constituent of all other atomic nuclei, that carries a positive charge numerically equal to the charge of an electron.

Example:

The nucleus of a hydrogen atom or the H+ ion is an example of a proton. Regardless of the isotope, each atom of hydrogen has 1 proton; each helium atom contains 2 protons; each lithium atom contains 3 protons and so on.

The question is below
rodikova [14]
The anode is the electrode where the oxidation occurs.

Cathode is the electrode where the reducction occurs.

Equations:

  Mn(2+) + 2e-  --->  Mn(s)                      Eo = - 1.18 V
2Fe(3+) + 2e-  ----> 2 Fe(2+)                2Eo = + 1.54 V

The electrons flow from the electrode with the lower Eo to the electrode with the higher Eo yielding to a positive voltage.

Eo = 1.54 V - (- 1.18) = 1.54 + 1.18 = 2.72

Answer: 2.72 V

Is it likely that an atom of Te would substitute for an atom of O in a solid compound? yes no indeterminate
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The correct answer is no.

Explanation:

Tellurium is a chemical element denoted by Te and having atomic number 52. It is mildly toxic, brittle, silver-white, and rare metalloid. The element is chemically related to sulfur and selenium, all three of which are chalcogens.  

Oxygen is a chemical element, that is, a substance, which comprises only one kind of atom. Its official chemical symbol is O and exhibits an atomic number 8, this signifies that an atom of oxygen possesses eight protons in its nucleus. In the given question, it is not likely that tellurium would replace for oxygen, as the two elements are highly unlike.
