In atomic science, the z number refers to the number of __________ in the nucleus of an atom.
Sliva [168]
By convention, the symbol Z is assigned to the number of protons in the nucleus, or simply, the atomic number of an element. This is actually used when you want to determine the effective nuclear charge of a specific electron of an element. The equation is:

Z* = Z - S
where
Z* is the effective nuclear charge
Z is the atomic number
S is the number of electrons between the electron in question and the nucleus

There is due to a phenomenon called the shielding effect. This effect states that the farther the electron is from the nucleus, the lesser is its pull of force to the nucleus. That is the reason why the valence electrons (outermost electrons) are the ones always involved in chemicals reactions. Because they are not that strongly bonded to the nucleus of an atom.

lakkis [162]

There may be too many plants present or too few animals in the biodome hence the decrease in carbon dioxide .

<h3>What is a biodome?</h3>

The term biodome refers to an artificially buit ecosystem. We must recall that an ecosystem is a self sustaining unit in which materials and energy are exchanged.

If there is less carbon dioxide in the biodome then it means that there are too many plants present or too few animals in the biodome.

What makes this inauguration different from the past?
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

there's just a lot of drama around grumpy trumpy's StOlEN eLecTiOn which are all just fake claims. all his hardcore followers are brainwashed into believing anything he says, so people (especially people who are inside the capitol) fear that trump's followers might incite violence AGAIN even after they broke into the Capitol on the 6th.

That's why they have the National Guard and thousands of people to keep the building secure during Biden's Inauguration.

hope this helps!
