Answer:

The number of neutron in the Aluminium Isotope is :

B. 14

Explanation:

Isotopes : These are the atoms which have same atomic number but have different mass number.

<u>This image shows the average atomic mass of Al element because it is in decimals</u>.

Atomic mass = 26.98154

(Note : mass number of single isotope can never be in decimals)

It is the average of mass of different isotopes of Al

Major Isotopes of $_{13}^{26.98154}\textrm{Al}$ are :

$_{13}^{26}\textrm{Al}$ ......atomic mass = 26
$_{13}^{27}\textrm{Al}$ .......atomic mass = 27

mass of Al given in image(26.98) is nearly equal to mass of 2nd isotope(27)

mass of $_{13}^{26.98154}\textrm{Al}\ \approx 27$

Now calculate the neutron in $_{13}^{27}\textrm{Al}$

Number of neutron = mass number - atomic number

= 27 - 13

Number of neutron = 14

(Atomic mass is same as mass number)

A Flame test is an example of chemistry property. What evidence can you use to back your statement up?

Lena [83]

The flame test is a qualitative test used in chemistry to help determine the identity or possible identity of a metal or metalloid ion found in an ionic compound. If the compound is placed in the flame of a gas burner, there may be a characteristic color given off that is visible to the naked eye. And for the proof. The flame test provided evidence that specific atoms are present in compounds by the color of the flame. The metal atoms are what is responsible for the colors during the flame test. The color of the flame will be yellow-orange because Sodium (Na) is present in all the compounds that have a yellow-orange flame. Hope this helps! Mark brainly please!

How fast must a 56.5-g tennis ball travel in order to have a de Broglie wavelength that is equal to that of a photon of green li

nikklg [1K]

Answer:vv

$v=2.17\times 10^{-26}\ m/s$

Explanation:

The expression for the deBroglie wavelength is:

$\lambda=\frac {h}{m\times v}$

Where,

$\lambda$ is the deBroglie wavelength

h is Plank's constant having value $6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js$

m is the mass of = $56.5\ g=0.0565\ kg$

v is the speed.

Wavelength = 5400 Å = $5400\times 10^{-10}\ m$

Applying in the equation as:-

$5400\times 10^{-10}=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}}{0.0565\times v}$

$v=\frac{331300000}{10^{34}\times \:1.5255}\ m/s$

$v=2.17\times 10^{-26}\ m/s$

Which of the following characteristics would make a gas non-ideal?

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

A. The gas molecules possess kinetic energy.

Explanation:

The characteristics of the Ideal gases are given by the Kinetic Theory of gases which are as follows:-

Gases consist of particles in constant, random motion. They continue in a straight line until they collide with something—usually each other or the walls of their container.

Particles are point masses with no volume. The particles are so small compared to the space between them, that we do not consider their size in ideal gases.

No molecular forces are at work. This means that there is no attraction or repulsion between the particles.

Gas pressure is due to the molecules colliding with the walls
