Answer;

Sodium (Na)

A single sodium atom has 11 protons, 11 electrons, and 12 neutrons.


Explanation;

For any neutral atom, the number of protons is the same as the number of electrons. If an atom loses or gains electrons, it is called an ion.

A sodium atom contains 11 protons, so its atomic number is 11. Mass number is the total of the protons and neutrons together, thus sodium has a mass number of 23.

A. V is Vanadium and it has 23 electrons, so it couldn't be your answer.
B. Na is sodium and has 11 electrons, so it is your answer
C. Mg is Magnesium and it has 12 electrons, so it couldn't be your answer either.
D. Se is Selenium and it has 34 electrons, so it couldn't be your answer.
So your answer is B.

What structural feature in a molecule is necessary for a gas to absorb ir radiation?.
dybincka [34]

The structural feature in a molecule necessary for a gas to absorb IR radiation is: a net change in dipole moment due to the vibration or rotation of the molecule.

IR radiation is the infrared radiation. In the electromagnetic spectrum, its value ranges from  700 nanometers to 1 millimeter. The waves are longer than that of visible light and shorter than the radio waves. The waves are not visible to the human eye.

Dipole moment is a vector quantity. It is equal to the charge of the molecules multiplied by the distance between the two charges. In a dipole there is a positive charge at one end and a negative at the other. The direction is considered from negative to positive.

How did the frequency of stimulation affect the amount of force generated by the isolated skeletal muscle when the frequency of
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

When the frequency of stimulation of a muscle increases -without it having the opportunity to relax- a process called summation (addition) occurs, promoting an increase in the generation of force in the isolated skeletal muscle.

Explanation:

Summation is a phenomenon that occurs as a consequence of the arrival of successive stimuli that produce the contraction of the skeletal muscle before it achieves its partial or total relaxation, between subsequent stimuli.

<em>When the summation occurs in the muscle, the force generated on it increases its magnitude proportionally to the number of stimuli received, maintaining the muscle contraction in time</em>.

Tetany is the prolonged contraction of a muscle in an abnormal way, by the summation of stimuli received , as some bacterial toxins can produce. The summation can be temporary -when multiple stimuli reach the muscle in a determined time- or spatial, when the amount of stimuli activates a greater amount of motor units.
