Which statement about atomic structure is incorrect?

English

Ierofanga [76]3 years ago

The correct answer is B. Protons and electrons have the same mass.

Explanation:

An atom, which is the unit of mass, is composed of protons and neutrons that are in the nucleus, along with electrons that orbit the nucleus. In terms of mass, protons that are particles positively charged and neutrons that do not have a charge have the same mass that is around 1.67 x 10^{-27} Kg or 1 AMU (Atomic mass unit). However, in the case of electrons, these have less mass than protons or neutrons and the difference of mass is important as electrons have a mass of only 9.10 x 10^{-31} Kg or 0 AMU. Thus, the statement that is incorrect about atomic structure is "Protons and electrons have the same mass" because protons are much more massive than electrons.

kenny6666 [7]

Answer: 2- The poet repeats the word “perched” to show that the raven is threatening to the speaker, and this contributes to the mood of powerlessness in the poem.

Explanation: repetition is a literary device that consists in repeating certain words or phrases in a sentence or paragraph, in order to create an impact in the reader. In the given excerpt from "The Raven" we can see an example of the repetition of the word "perched" this shows that the raven is threatening to the speaker (it is always watching the speaker) and this contributes to the mood of powerlessness in the poem (because the speaker doesn't seem to be able to do something to stop the raven from watching him).

20 POINTS PLEASE HELP!Based on your reading of the following passage, in what ways do the events of 9/11 provide a good example
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

Both immediate and longer term industry responses to the security failures related to transportation showed

that various security holes existed between businesses in transportation chains from all modes and that many

transportation businesses were unaware of how other links in their chain handled safety issues, or if they did at all.

The regulation concerns areas that present safety concerns and may cause loss of life.

The inability of players in transportation chains to identify who was handling safety issues and how they were handling them

highlights a need for clarification of duties and roles within the industry.

The

investigation of the 9/11 events have further highlighted widespread and serious security flaws in the transportation

industry, such as the lack of regulation of flight schools and the use of water transportation to ship potentially lethal

items such as explosives. Unfortunately, the various security precautions that have placed a financial burden on

transportation companies change frequently and are often ineffective.
