Answer:
A
Explanation:
The number of protons and neutrons of an element is the same. the electrons are the only thing that can differ. The atomic number equal the protons and neutrons.
Answer:
Explanation:
You would have to add up the atomic masses of all the compounds in the compound, making sure you include how many molecules of each are in the compound
For example, in CuSOA we have 1 molecule of Cu and S, as 4 molecules of O
The atomic masses are as follows:
Cu = 63.55 u
S = 32.065 u
O = 15.99 units
This is how we would add it up:
(Atomic mass of Cu) + (Atomic mass of S) + 4(Atomic Mass of O)
(63.55) + (32.065) + 4(15.99)
(63.55) + (32.065) + 63.96
= 159.575 u
Answer:
Option C = electron
Explanation:
Electrons are responsible for the production of colored light.
Electron:
The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.
Symbol= e-
Mass= 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg
It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.
How electrons produce the colored light:
Excitation:
When the energy is provided to the atom the electrons by absorbing the energy jump to the higher energy levels. This process is called excitation. The amount of energy absorbed by the electron is exactly equal to the energy difference of orbits.
De-excitation:
When the excited electron fall back to the lower energy levels the energy is released in the form of radiations. this energy is exactly equal to the energy difference between the orbits. The characteristics bright colors are due to the these emitted radiations. These emitted radiations can be seen if they are fall in the visible region of spectrum.
Other process may involve,
Fluorescence:
In fluorescence the energy is absorbed by the electron having shorter wavelength and high energy usually of U.V region. The process of absorbing the light occur in a very short period of time i.e. 10 ∧-15 sec. During the fluorescence the spin of electron not changed.
The electron is then de-excited by emitting the light in visible and IR region. This process of de-excitation occur in a time period of 10∧-9 sec.
Phosphorescence:
In phosphorescence the electron also goes to the excitation to the higher level by absorbing the U.V radiations. In case of Phosphorescence the transition back to the lower energy level occur very slowly and the spin pf electron also change.
Answer:
The higher concentrations of greenhouse gases—and carbon dioxide in particular—is causing extra heat to be trapped and global temperatures to rise.
