Which statement is true about a proton and an electron?

Chemistry
1 answer:
tatyana61 [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: (3) They have different masses and the same charges.

Explanation:

Atoms are mainly composed of three main types of particles (in fact there are more particles that are smaller and make up these main particles): electrons, protons and neutrons.

In the specific case of  <u>electrons</u> and <u>protons</u>, <u>both have the same charge, but electrons have the opposite sign</u>. This means a proton has an electric charge of  +1 and an electron has an electric charge of  −1.

On the other hand, <u>protons have more mass than electrons.</u> In fact, thetex]mass of an electron is about approximately \frac{1}{2000} the mass of a proton, this means these negative charged particles contribute almost nothing to the total mass of an atom (unlike protons, which together with neutrons, make up virtually all of the mass of an atom).

However, each atom that is electrically neutral has the same quantity of electrons as protons.

Quesiton 5 says

Which of these inferences about the author’s point of view is best supported by the entire excerpt?

From: The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks" lesson

A. “She’s simply called HeLa, the code name given to the world’s first immortal human cells—her cells, cut from her cervix just months before she died.”

B. “I’ve spent years staring at that photo, wondering what kind of life she led, what happened to her children, and what she’d think about cells from her cervix living on forever—bought, sold, packaged, and shipped by the trillions to laboratories around the world.”

C. “One scientist estimates that if you could pile all HeLa cells ever grown onto a scale, they’d weigh more than 50 million metric tons—an inconceivable number, given that an individual cell weighs almost nothing.”
