What causes a top to stop spinning?

Tops stops spinning because it doesn't have energy or ran out of force for example when you spin a top you give force to it then after 30 sec it going to stop going slower and slower that Is losing energy that's how tops stops spinning

To determine the age of fairly recent fossils and organic artifacts, it is possible to analyze the amounts of the isotopes 14C a
dolphi86 [110]

Answer: The net change in the atoms is the conversion of a neutron to a proton, turning Carbon (6 protons) into Nitrogen (7 protons).

Explanation:

Carbon-14, generated from the atmosphere, has 6 protons and 8 neutrons. That's where the 14 comes from, called the mass number, is the sum of protons and neutrons (6+8=14).

Carbon-14 is radioactive and decays by beta decay. That means one of its neutrons spontaneously turns into a proton, an electron, and a neutrino, according to:

^{14} C \rightarrow\ ^{14} N\ +\ e^-  +\ neutrino

After that, the atom has 7 protons and 7 neutrons, maintaining its mass number but changing its atomic number from 6 to 7, turning into Nitrogen.

Describe the atomic theory of atoms

Answer: Below

                   ^

Explanation:

The atomic theory is that all matter is made up of tiny units or particles called atoms. This theory describes the characteristics, structure and behavior of atoms as well as the components that make up atoms. Furthermore, the theory states that all elements are made up of identical atoms.

The atomic theory is a theory in the study of chemistry that states atoms are the building blocks of matter. Atoms contain protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons, which have a positive charge, and neutrons are found in the nucleus of the atom. Electrons, which have a negative charge, orbit the nucleus.

According to the atomic theory, all elements contain atoms. The difference is the number of protons, electrons and neutrons in that atom. For instance, hydrogen contains one proton and one electron but no neutrons. Oxygen, on the other hand contains eight protons, electrons and neutrons. The difference in protons, electrons and neutrons determines the stability and the other properties of any particular element. These elements are grouped according to their atomic masses, which depend on the number of protons and neutrons in each of the atoms. Because oxygen has more protons and neutrons than hydrogen, it has a higher atomic mass.

Can someone help with question 6 ASAP
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

A metalloid is a type of chemical element which has a preponderance of properties in between, or that are a mixture of, those of metals and nonmetals. There is no standard definition of a metalloid and no complete agreement on which elements are metalloids. Despite the lack of specificity, the term remains in use in the literature of chemistry.

A series of six elements called the metalloids separate the metals from the nonmetals in the periodic table. The metalloids are boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, and tellurium. These elements look metallic; however, they do not conduct electricity as well as metals so they are semiconductors. They are semiconductors because their electrons are more tightly bound to their nuclei than are those of metallic conductors. Their chemical behavior falls between that of metals and nonmetals. For example, the pure metalloids form covalent crystals like the nonmetals, but like the metals, they generally do not form monatomic anions. This intermediate behavior is in part due to their intermediate electronegativity values. In this section, we will briefly discuss the chemical behavior of metalloids and deal with two of these elements—boron and silicon—in more detail.
