Hi!

Neutrons are neutral, which means they don't exactly have an electrical charge. It's because of this neutral charge that it is represented with a '0'.

On the other hand, protons and electrons do have electrical charges. Electrons flow around the outside of the nucleus, with a negative charge.

Protons are stored in the nucleus with the neutrons, holding a positive charge.

Hopefully, this helps! =)

Here are some tips to help you remember the difference between protons, neutrons, and electrons.

Protons-- Think pro. Pro means positive (as in pros and cons) and the proton is often represented with the + sign. +, positive, pro, proton.

Neutrons-- Neutron sounds like neutral. Neutrally charged particles are often represented with an O. I personally think of Jimmy Neutron here. Every time his inventions went bad, his friends would say things like "Oh boy." O, Jimmy Neutron, neutron.

Electrons-- Think about how negative the United States are about the current president and how he was ELECTED. The - sign represents electrons. -, negative, presidential election, electron.

So the answer to your problems would be:
1. B-- electrons are negative
2. A-- protons are positive
3. C-- neutrons are neutral

Which statement is true regarding a chemical reaction?

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

B) The total number of atoms does not change, so mass is conserved in the reaction.

Explanation:

According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, no matter can ever be created or destroyed. The number of atoms does not change, thus the mass does not change.

Your GPS shows that your friend’s house is 10.0 km away. But there is a big hill between your houses and you don’t want to bike

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The value is $c = 8 \ km$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance of friends house from your point is $a = 10 \ km$

The distance of your friends street from your street is $b = 6 \ km \ in the \ direction \ towards \ the \ north$

The diagram illustrating this question is shown on the first uploaded image

From the diagram we can apply by Pythagoras theorem as follows

$a^2 = b^2 + c^2$

=> $c = \sqrt{^2 - b^2}$

=> $c = \sqrt{ 10^2 - 6^2}$

=> $c = 8 \ km$

Why is the overall charge of the atom neutral or zero?

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

this is because the neutrons do not have a charge, the things that have charge in an atom are electrons and protons.

and in the nucleus of an atom, there are protons and neutrons so you can see that A is not the answer

if you see the periodic table, you will know that the number of electrons and protons are equal, so the charges cancel each other out, hence the charge of an atom will be neutral

let me give you a tip which I got from my teacher, never write there is no charge in the atom, this suggests that there is no protons or electrons.

instead, write, the it is neutral

hope it helps if not please report it so that someone else gets to try it out
