(2) Arsenic. It is an element and elements are chemically the simplest units and cannot be broken down by any chemical change.
The atomic number(Z) is equal to the number of protons to equal to number of electrons.
The number of neutrons is equal to atomic mass minus the atomic number
n=A-Z
For Zn^2+, Z=28, e=28
For iron, Z=25,A=55
The number of neutrons is 55-25=30
The charge is zero
For O^2-, Z=8+2=10, n=p=10
The number of neutrons is 16-10=6
For sulfur, Z=16,A=34
For S2-, Z=16+2=18, A=34
The charge is 2-
- The atomic number is the basis of the periodic table.
- It is equal to the number of protons.
- The number of neutrons is atomic mass minus atomic number.

C. CO2, carbon dioxide is a covalent compound,it is not formed from its respective ions,it does not donate or receive electrons to form a compound
Answer: An alpha-particle is identical to the nucleus of a normal (atomic mass four) helium atom i.e. a doubly ionised helium atom. Alpha particles (also termed alpha radiation or alpha rays) was the first nuclear radiation to be discovered, beta particles and gamma rays were identified soon after.
Explanation:
The <u>First Law of Thermodynamics</u> states that energy cannot be created or destroyed in an isolated system. In other words, energy can be converted from one form into another, but it cannot be created nor destroyed.
<u>Conduction</u> is the transfer of energy from one molecule to another by direct contact. This transfer occurs when molecules hit against each other, which can take place in solids, liquids, and gases.
When you put your cold hands under your legs to warm your hands up, the heat energy from your legs is being transferred to your hands through conduction. However, since energy cannot be created, there is no extra heat energy that can instantaneously replace the heat created by your legs.
