It's the number of protons.
The table of elements organizes the elements by their number of protons/the atomic number as the number of protons of an element is fixed, unlike the number of electrons and neutrons.

The atomic number of an atom is determined by the number of protons present in the atom that is the atomic number and number of protons are same for an atom. It is unique for every atom.

Atomic mass: It is nearly equals to the sum of mass of subatomic particles present in the atom that is sum of proton and neutron.

Number of neutrons: in an atom, the number of neutrons are always equal to the number of protons. If the number of neutrons are different for a number of proton then it is said be an isotope of that atom.

Protons plus neutrons: Sum of number of protons and number of neutrons is said to be the mass number of that atom.

Hence, the atomic number is the number of protons.

Which of the following covalent bonds is the most polar?

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

D.) H-O

Explanation:

Polarity is determined based on the difference in electronegativity of the atoms. The greater the difference, the more polar the bond. The general trend is that the atoms in the top-right corner of the periodic table are the most electronegative.

A.) is incorrect because H-H has no electronegativity difference, making it nonpolar.

B.) and C.) are incorrect because their electronegativity differences are not the greatest.

D.) is correct because the electronegativity difference between the H and O is the greatest.

A scientist wants to determine which fertilizer is more effective—Fertilizer X or Fertilizer Y. The best way for her to proceed

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The correct answer is "three groups of plants—a group fertilized by X, a group fertilized by Y, and a control group with no fertilizer".

Explanation:

I had to look for the problem to know the options.

The best way to determine which fertilizer is most effective is to have three evaluation groups. One group will be tested with fertilizer X and another with fertilizer Y. By leaving the third group without applying fertilizer, this will be the general pattern for comparing the effectiveness of the other two.

Have a nice day!
