<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option A.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or electrons that are present in a neutral atom. It is represented by Z.

Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom. It is represented by A.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

We are given an isotopic representation of _{92}^{238}\textrm{U}

Number of protons = 92

Mass number = 238

Number of neutrons = 238 - 92 = 146

For every uranium atom, number of protons will be 92

Hence, the correct answer is Option A.

If the pressure on a 1.04 L sample of gas is doubled at constant temperature, please compute the new volume of gas: __
natulia [17]

Answer:

0.52 L.

Explanation:

Let P be the initial pressure.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial pressure (P1) = P

Initial volume (V1) = 1.04 L

Final pressure (P2) = double the initial pressure = 2P

Final volume (V2) =?

The new volume (V2) of the gas can be obtained by using the the Boyle's law equation as shown below:

P1V1 = P2V2

P × 1.04 = 2P × V2

1.04P = 2P × V2

Divide both side by 2P

V2 = 1.04P /2P

V2 = 0.52 L

Thus, the new volume of the gas is 0.52 L.

Gasoline has a density of 0.749 g/mL. How many pounds does 19.2 gallons of gasoline weigh? Use significant figures. Do not enter
Yanka [14]
In this question, you are given the gasoline density (0.749g/ml) and volume of the gasoline (19.2 gallons). You are asked the mass of the gasoline in pounds. Then you need to change the grams into pounds and the ml into gallons. The calculation would be:

mass of gasoline= density * volume
mass of gasoline=  0.749g/ml * (1 pound/453.592grams) * 3785.41ml/gallon * 19.2 gallon= 120 pounds

Do sound waves travel best in dense or less dense areas?
velikii [3]
Thus, sound will travel at a slower rate in the denser object. If sound waves of the same energy were passed through a block of wood and a block of steel, which is more dense than the wood, the molecules of the steel would vibrate at a slower rate. Thus, sound passes more quickly through the wood, which is less dense.
