14

Explanation:

The number of neutrons in one atom of silicon with an isotopic mass number of 28amu is 14.

An atom is made up three fundamental sub-atomic particles which are:

  Protons, neutron and electrons

Protons are the positively charged particles in an atom

Neutrons do not carry any charges

Electrons are the negatively charged particles.

In the nucleus of an atom, both protons and neutrons can be found. They are the massive particle in an atom.

  The mass number of an atom = number of protons + number of neutrons

Number of neutrons = mass number - number of protons.

From the periodic table, we know that silicon has an atomic number of 14.

The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom:

         Number of neutrons = 28 - 14 = 14amu

In the atom, we will have 14amu of neutrons in a silicon atom.

Determine the latitude and longitude of the location A
malfutka [58]

Answer:

Latitude: 30\° N

Longitude: 45\° W

Explanation:

Lets begin by explaining the meaning of latitude and longitude as geogrephical coordinates:

Latitude is the angular distance between the equatorial line, and a specific point on the Earth. It is measured in degrees and is represented according to the hemisphere in which the point is located, which can be north or south latitude.  

In this sense latitude 0\° refers to the equatorial line that divides the Earth in two hemispheres (North and South).

Longitude represents the specific east–west position of a point on the Earth's surface, being longitude 0\° the prime meridian or Greenwich meridian.

So, according to the figure, where the model of the Earth is divided by latitude lines separated by 10\° and the longitude lines separated by 15\°; we only have to count the lines from the equator to the line where the point A is, and count the lines fromo the Prime meridian to the line where point A is located.

Hence, point A location is:

Latitude: 30\° N

Longitude: 45\° W

Which observation most likely indicates that only a chemical change has taken place
salantis [7]

The correct answer as to which observation most likely indicates that only a chemical change has taken place would that the change cannot be reversed.

When it comes to changes in a system, it can either be:

  • physical change
  • chemical change

When a substance undergoes a physical change, the original version of the substance can be recovered. In other words, physical changes can be reversible.

When a substance undergoes a chemical change, the original version cannot be recovered because an entirely new product would have been formed. In other words, chemical changes are irreversible.

Thus, once a change becomes irreversible, such a change is said to be a chemical change.

Which ppower source directs the electrons from oxidation reduction reations to flow through a device to give the device power?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Battery or electrochemical cell

Explanation:

A battery is a power source that directs electrons from oxidation - reduction reactions to flow through a device to give electrical power.

  • A battery is an electrochemical cell.
  • Electrochemical cells are devices in which chemical reactions produce an electric current that is, chemical energy is turned into electrical energy.
  • The reactions here are spontaneous redox reactions, hence electrons flows on its own in an external circuit.
