Your question asks which is an example of an atom that has no change, or charge.

Your answer would be C). 2 protons, 2 electrons, and 1 neutron

These atoms would be known as a neutral atom.

In order for an atom to be neutral, it must have the same amount of protons and electrons.

We know that Protons are positive

We also know that Electrons are negative

In order for the atom to be neutral, they must have an equal amount of protons and neutrons to "cancel out"

In answer choice C, you would see that there are 2 protons and 2 electrons.

2- 0 = 0, in which allows this atom to be neutral.

Therefore, answer choice C. 2 protons, 2 electrons, and 1 neutron would be your answer.

I think you mean an atom that has "no <u><em>charge</em></u>".  I'll assume that, and then answer the question that I just invented:

That would be the (Helium) atom described in <em>Choice-C</em> .

Each proton has 1 positive charge, and each electron has 1 negative charge. So any atom that has <u><em>equal</em></u> numbers of protons and electrons is electrically neutral ... it looks like it has no charge at all.  Choice-C is the only one on the list that has equal numbers of protons and electrons.

(Neutrons have no charge at all.  So when you're working with the total charge on the atom, the neutrons don't make any difference.)

A horizontal force of 100 N is required to push a 50 kg crate across a factory floor at a constant speed. What is the accelerati
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

a = 2m/s^2

Explanation:

Force (F) = 100 N

Mass (m) = 50 kg

Here,

F = m×a

100 = 50 × a

a = 100÷50

a = 2m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration on the cart is a = 2m/s^2

The iron nail’s mass is 16 grams and its temperature drops 650 C when dropped into the water. How much heat energy did the iron
Mice21 [21]

The heat energy transferred by the iron nail is 4680 J

Explanation:

The thermal energy transferred by a substance to another substance is given by the equation

Q=mC\Delta T

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is its specific heat capacity

\Delta T is its change in temperature

For the iron nail in this problem, we have:

m = 16 g

C=0.450 J/g^{\circ}C

\Delta T = -650^{\circ}C

So, the amount of heat energy given off by the nail is

Q=(16)(0.450)(-650)=-4680 J

where the negative sign indicates that the heat is given off.

Which theory of the origin of the moon would be most supported if the moon had an irregular shape, like an asteroid? impact theo
Fiesta28 [93]
<span>Its the impact theory.
It suggests that the moon resulted from the collision of two protoplanets, or embryonic worlds. One of those was the just-forming Earth, and the other was a Mars-size object called Theia. The moon then coalesced from the debris, thus giving it its irregular shape.</span>
