A helium atom would never explode and is non-reactive, whereas a hydrogen atom is.

A helium atom is not flammable because it is one of the Inert Gasses; In contrast, Hydrogen is flammable. It reacts explosively with Oxygen


I think I am correct, but comment if I'm wrong :-)

The other answer here says nothing about the structures
of a Hydrogen atom or a Helium atom.


In "classical terms" ... where we picture an atom something
like a tiny tiny solar system ...

-- The nucleus of a Hydrogen atom is a single proton,
whereas the nucleus of a Helium atom is a tightly bound
bundle of four particles ... 2 protons and 2 neutrons. 
This also means that every atom of Helium has 4 times
the mass of a Hydrogen atom.

-- In addition to the atomic nucleus, one electrically-neutral
atom of Hydrogen has an electron associated with the nucleus
and at some distance from it, whereas an electrically-neutral atom
of Helium has two electrons.

A plate carries a charge of 3.8 UC, while a rod carries a charge of 1.9 C. How many electrons must be transferred from the plate
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=5.94*10^{18}electrons

Explanation:

The total charge is distributed over the two objects:

Q_{total}/2=(3.8*10^{-6}C+1.9C)/2=0.9500019C\\

The plate and the rod must have Q_{total}/2\\. So the charge transferred from the plate to the rod is:

Q_{transfered}=3.8*10^{-6}C-Q_{total}/2=3.8*10^{-6}C-0.9500019C=-0.9499981C\\

Number of electrons:

N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=-0.9499981C/(-1.6*10^{-19}C)=5.94*10^{18}electrons
