Answer:

Below.

Explanation:

1. At quantum number 3 it is further from the positive protons in the nucleus.

2. The inner electrons have a shielding effect on the attraction from the protons in the nucleus.

Answer: An electron having a quantum number of one is closer to the nucleus

Explanation:

The Bohr model relies on electrostatic attraction between the nucleus and orbital electron. Hence, the closer an electron is to the nucleus the more closely it is held by the nucleus and the lesser its energy (the more stable the electron is and the more difficult it is to ionize it). The farther an electron is from the nucleus ( in higher shells or energy levels), the less the electrostatic attraction of such electron to the nucleus due to shielding effect. Hence it is less tightly held.

Molecules in all organisms are composed in part of radioactive carbon-14. Which statement best explains the presence of carbon-1
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option b, that is, the radioactive isotope reacts in the same way as stable isotopes in the chemical reactions in the body.

Explanation:

The carbon-14 atoms, which are created by the cosmic rays associates with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide that plants captivate naturally and comprise it into plant fibers by the process of photosynthesis. Afterward, the plants are consumed by animals and human beings, thus, they take in carbon-14 as well.  

The ratio of usual carbon-12 to carbon-14 in the air and in all the living species at a particular period is almost the same. These radioactive isotopes react in a similar manner as stable isotopes in the chemical reactions in the body.

What would happen when a substance changes from one phase to another? A. The substance loses or gains heat. B. The average kinet
lutik1710 [3]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. When a substance changes from one phase to another, the average kinetic energy of the substance <span>changes since the molecules movements are changed as well. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

Which two body systems work together to deliver oxygen to cells? A. the digestive and respiratory systems B. the respiratory and
Ann [662]

The correct answer is option B, that is, the respiratory and circulatory systems.  

The respiratory and circulatory system functions together to circulate oxygen and blood all through the body. The movement of air takes place in and out of the lungs via the bronchi, trachea, and bronchioles. The movement of blood takes place in and out of the lungs via the pulmonary veins and arteries, which associate with the heart.  

The pulmonary arteries mediate deoxygenated blood to the lungs from the heart, and the pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood to the heart again so that it can be distributed to the rest of the body.
