Answer:
Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but it does change its form. And not all forms of energy are usable and it gets dissipated as heat energy and sound energy. The energy that is wasted cannot be recovered.
Answer:
(4) All atoms of a given element must have the same atomic number
Explanation:
Atomic number : It is defined as the number of electrons or number of protons present in a neutral atom.
However, when we talk about the atomic number of the ion, it is not equal to the number of electrons as electron can be gained or loosed.
This is why, more appropriately, the number of the protons which are present in the nucleus of the atom is called the atomic number.
Mass number is the number of the entities present in the nucleus which is the equal to the sum of the number of protons and electrons.
Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons
<u>Thus, atomic number of an element is an unique property of the element and it's atom.</u>
