Cations are formed by losing electrons

Cations are basically positive ions


It's not lose or gain protons because atoms can't lose or gain protons. The protons don't move.
It's not gain electrons because electrons are negative. More electrons=more negative

If you can't remember cations are positive
CAT-ions are PAWS-itively charged

What body systems help these cells get the energy they need?
MakcuM [25]

The body systems that help cells get the energy they need are the digestive system and circulatory system. The first system is the digestive system because when you eat food, your body breaks it down using the stomach and other different parts of the digestive system.  The next one is the circulatory system because your blood carries the nutrients you acquired from food you digested to the cells throughout your body.

How much heat is needed to change the temperature of 3 grams of gold (c = 0.129 ) from 21°C to 363°C? The answer is expressed to
Temka [501]

Q= mcΔT

Where Q is heat or energy

M is mass, c is heat capacitance and t is temperature

You have to convert Celsius into kelvin in order to use this formula I believe

Celsius + 273 = Kelvin

21 + 273 = 294K

363 + 273 = 636K

Now...

Q= (0.003)(0.129)(636-294)

Q= 0.132 J if you are using kilograms, in terms of grams which seems more appropriate the answer would be 132J of energy.

Imagine two billiard balls on a pool table. Ball A has a mass of 2 kilograms and ball B has a mass of 3 kilograms. The initial v
ratelena [41]
1. The balls move to the opposite direction but the same speed. This represents Newton's third law of motion.
2. The total momentum before and after the collision stays constant or is conserved.
3. If the masses were the same, the velocities of both balls after the collision would exchange.
4 and 5. Use momentum balance to solve for the final velocities.
