Answer is: D.

Atomic number is the number of protons, which is characteristic of a chemical element: Boron is an element with atomic number 5, which means it has 5 protons and 5 electrons, bcause atom has neutral charge.

Electron configuration of boron: ₅B: 1s² 2s² 2p¹, it has three valence electrons in 2s and 2p orbitals.

ddd [48]

Answer:

2/3

Explanation:

Crystals structures can also be seen when two elements combines together and the perfect example is Al₂O₃ which is given in the question above. Just like it is given in the question above, the kind of arrangement in the crystal structure for Al₂O₃ is called HCP which stands for Hexagonally Closed Pack.

The aluminum ions which is in form of Al³⁺ occupies the two-third[2/3] positions while the position that the oxygen ion occupies is one[1].

What are some advantages of asexual reproduction when compared to sexual reproduction? What are some disadvantages of asexual re
never [62]

Answer:

  • An additional advantage of asexual reproduction is that colonization of new habitats may be easier when an individual does not need to find a mate to reproduce. During sexual reproduction the genetic material of two individuals is combined to produce genetically diverse offspring that differ from their parents.
  • A disadvantage is that sexual reproduction takes longer than asexual reproduction. A mate must be found, the egg must be fertilised by sperm, and then the offspring develop. The benefit of introducing genetic variation into the species , however, outweighs this disadvantage.

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

If one of the reactants is a solid, only the particles at the surface can partake in the reaction. Breaking the reactant into smaller pieces increases the surface and more particles are exposed to the reaction mixture. This results in an increased frequency of collisions and therefore a faster rate of reaction

Ulleksa [173]

Answer is (3) - ratio of neutrons to protons.


Isotopes are the atoms which have same atomic number but have different number of neutrons of same element.


Atomic nucleus can be stable or unstable. The stability of isotopes is based on neutron/ proton ratio. Unstable nucleus tries to become stable by emitting radiations.
