Answer:

A) False

B) True

C) True

D) True

Explanation:

A) False. If the charge of the atom is +2 means that you have two protons more than number of electrons. If you have 36 electrons you must have <em>38 protons.</em> Also, the electrons are not in the nucleus.

B) True. The isotope of X contains 38 protons, two more than the electron number.

C) True. The mass number is the number of protons + number of neutrons.

If the mass number is 79 and there are 38 protons you must have 41 neutrons.

D) True. You can now the identity of the atom with the number of protons that is the same than atomic number. The strontium, Sr, is the atom with 38 as atomic number.

I hope it helps!

Some activities that are generally considered to be work are not called work by scientists. Explain why.​
Flura [38]

Answer:

Certain things we think of as hard work, such as writing an exam or carrying a heavy load on level ground, are not work as defined by a scientist. The scientific definition of work reveals its relationship to energy—whenever work is done, energy is transferred.

For work, in the scientific sense, to be done, a force must be exerted and there must be motion or displacement in the direction of the force.

A 100.0 ml sample of 0.18 m hclo4 is titrated with 0.27 m lioh. determine the ph of the solution before the addition of any lioh
snow_lady [41]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. Below is the solution:

 <span>moles HClO4 = 0.100 L x 0.18 M = 0.018 
moles LiOH = 0.030 L x 0.27 = 0.0081 
moles H+ in excess = 0.018 - 0.0081 = 0.0099 
total volume = 0.130 L 
[H+] = 0.0099/ 0.130= 0.0762 M 
pH = 1.12</span>

The equation shows lead reacting with sulfuric acid to produce lead sulfate and hydrogen gas.
timofeeve [1]
This equation represents a single replacement reaction. Single replacement reactions consist of one element reacting with one compound on the reactant side (left side of the equation) and they form one new element and one new compound on the product side of the equation (right side).
