Answer: Electrons positioned closer to the nucleus have a greater attraction to the protons and are more likely to be discharged from the atom than electrons farther away.

Explanation: The electrons being negatively charged repel each other due to like charges. The protons being positively charged are attracted towards the negatively charged electrons.

The electrons which are near to nucleus are more tightly held by the protons and thus are more difficult to remove from the atom. The electrons which are far from the nucleus are less tightly held and are easily removed from the atom.

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An atom consists of three sub-atomic particles which are electrons, protons and neutrons.

As electrons are negatively charges, protons are positively charged and neutrons have no charge.

And since, electrons revolve around the nucleus (nucleus contains both protons and neutrons) so, there exists a strong force of attraction between the protons and electrons near the nucleus.

Hence, electrons near the nucleus are difficult to discharge.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement electrons positioned closer to the nucleus have a greater attraction to the protons and are more likely to be discharged from the atom than electrons farther away, does not accurately describe the forces that exist with an atom.

Sidana [21]
1. theyre opposite because during photosynthesis CO2 is absorbed by plants and during respiration CO2 is emitted.
2. glucose is made during photosynthesis and serves as food for every (!) animal, and animals decompose glucose to CO2 during cellular respiration.

when examining cells in the lab, you notice that a particular tissue sample has 45% of the cells in the mitotic phase, how do yo
Shalnov [3]

This means that the tissues are most likely from the bone marrow or the epithelium in animals or meristem tissue in plants.  These tissues are constantly renewing themselves hence most cells are in mitosis stage. Tissues that are less likely to have such a high number of cells in the mitotic state are bone, connective, and nerve tissues.
