Answer:

See below.  

Step-by-step explanation:

The two isotopes are Cl-35 and Cl-37.

The average atomic mass (35.45 u) is closer to 35 u, so most of the atoms are Cl-35.

mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

          A          =               p                +               n

         35         =              17                +               n

                   n = 35 – 17

                   n = 18

∴ Most chlorine atoms contain 18 neutrons.

Who answers the three economic questions in a market economy? How is this different from command economy?
Natali [406]

Answer:

Market economies are characterized by their free markets. Examples are the United States and the United Kingdom.

  • That's pretty clear. What it means is that they trust in the free market and its operation to answer the questions of what to produce, how much to produce, and for whom.

Command economies are characterized by their control of markets. Examples are China and North Korea.

  • They rely on the government, <em>not the free market itself, </em>to control what should be produced. This makes for a more strict system that can pay off in the long run, but can also run the risk of being heavy-handed.

A force of attraction that holds atom together 
<span>When atoms react they form a chemical bond which is defined as a force of attraction that holds atom together. A force of attraction is defined as a kind of force that draws two or more objects together regardless of distance. There are two major categories of forces of attraction, one is intramolecular and intermolecular. Intramolecular forces is the presence of forces in atoms internally. While intermolecular is the force by which the force that is existent in two or more elements. </span>
