Because it requires more energy to create a neutron from a proton than it does to create a proton from a neutron, protons were formed more frequently than neutrons in the early universe. The correct answer is option b.
To find the answer, we need to know more about the early universe.
<h3>How the formation of proton over neutrons was favored in the early universe?</h3>
- A neutron is produced with greater energy than a proton.
- However, later on, some of the protons were changed into neutrons.
- Contrary to some claims, the proton is a stable particle that never decays, but the neutron is unstable outside of the nucleus and decays with a half life of around 10.5 minutes.
- However, very few would have had time to decay on the timeline you mention in your question.
- Every matter particle should have been accompanied by an antimatter particle, and every proton, neutron, and electron, by an anti-neutron and a positron, respectively.
- Where did all the antimatter go is the great mystery. There have been a few attempts to explain this, but they have failed.
Thus, we can conclude that, the correct answer is option b.

This statement is True! Lets think about it... When water boils, the water doesnt evaporate from the bottom of the bowl it evaporates from the top!

Answer: In Galileo’s time, what was considered the “center of everything”? The Earth! All of the planets and even the Sun went around “us”. Of course, when Galileo saw the moons of Jupiter passing in front of the planet, and disappearing to show up again, it was clear to him that these moons went around Jupiter like our moon goes ‘round the Earth.
That did not set well with the Beliefs of the day, and that is at least one answer!
Explanation:
Leading up to this, calcium gave up 2 valence electrons and thus was denoted as a cation. These 2 electrons were transferred to bromine, which received an overall negative charge because of the addition of 2 valence electrons in its valence shell, and thus formed a negatively charged ion, an anion.
Both formed an ionic bond, due to the electrostatic charge of attraction between the 2 oppositely charged ions. If many ions of Ca and Br are present and numerous ionic bonds have formed it will undergo an arrangement which is that of an ionic lattice, type of structure.
