Answer:

-3.2\cdot 10^{-19}C

Step-by-step explanation:

- Protons are positively charged particles contained in the nucleus of the atom. They have a charge of q_p=+1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C

- Electrons are negatively charged particles orbiting around the nucleus of the atom. They have a charge of  q_e = -1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C

For a neutral atom, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons, so the total charge of a neutral atom is:

Q=Nq_p + Nq_e = N(q_p+q_e)=N(+1.6\cdot 10^{-19}-1.6\cdot 10^{-19})=0

In this problem, we have an atom having an excess of 2 electrons, i.e. it has 2 more electrons than protons.

Therefore, the charge of this atom will be:

Q=0+2q_e

and substittuing, we find

Q=2(-1.6\cdot 10^{-19})=-3.2\cdot 10^{-19}C

Answer:

A. The lines stay parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

Rigid transformations do not change angle or line relationships. When the parallel lines are rotated they stay parallel. Reflecting them will keep them parallel. If this were not true, then figured with parallel lines like rectangles and squares would change shape when reflected.

Simi bought a study table for $ 9000. She sold it at a profit of 20%. How much profit did she make? What is the selling price?
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

cost price of a table=$9000

profit%=20%

Let profit be x

to find profit use formula,

profit%=profit/cost price*100

20%=x/$9000*100

20*$9000=100x

$180000/100=x

$1800=x

Now to find selling prie os a table use formula,

cost price +profit

$9000+$1800

$91800

therefore selling price of a table is $91800

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps u!!

Zachary sold 1/2 of a 40-acre lot. He then sold 3/5 of the remaining lot. What fraction of the land did he sell in all? (Write t
Mazyrski [523]
4/5 acres of the land were sold.
40* 1/2 = 20
20* 3/5 = 12
12+20= 32
32/40 = 4/5 simplified
