Answer: An atom does not have a charge because, protons have a +1 charge and electrons have a -1 charge. The number of protons is equals the number of electrons so the charges balance out to a neutral charge leaving the atom to not have an overall charge.

Hydrogen is an element with two naturally occurring isotopes: 2 H and 3 H. This means that 2 H, which has a mass number of 2, ha
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

TRUE.

Explanation:

Mass Number is the sum of protons and neutrons present in the nucleus of an atom. Isotopy is a phenonmenon that occurs when atoms of same elements have different mass number (Number of neutrons).

2H isotope has 1 proton and 1 neutron.

3H isotope has 1 proton and 2 neutrons.

This meeans 2H isotope has fewer neutrons when compared to the 3H isotope. The correct option is TRUE.

Relate the intermolecular forces in hydrocarbons to their physical properties and uses
DENIUS [597]

The physical properties of alkenes and alkynes are generally similar to those of alkanes or cycloalkanes with equal numbers of carbon atoms. Alkynes have higher boiling points than alkanes or alkenes, because the electric field of an alkyne, with its increased number of weakly held π electrons, is more easily distorted, producing stronger attractive forces between molecules.

If the half-life of Carbon-14 is 5700 years, how many years would it take a sample to decay from 1 gram to 31.3 mg
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

28500 years

Explanation:

Applying,

A = A'(2^{x/y})............... Equation 1

Where A = Original mass of Carbon-14, A' = Final mass of carbon-14 after decaying, x = total time, y = half-life.

From the question,

Given: A = 1 g, A' = 31.3 mg = 0.0313 g, y = 5700 years.

Substitute these values into equation 1

1 = 0.0313(2^{x/5700})

2^{x/5700} = 1/0.0313

2^{x/5700}  = 31.95

2^{x/5700} ≈ 32

2^{x/5700} ≈ 2⁵

Equating the base and solve for x

x/5700 ≈ 5

x ≈ 5×5700

x ≈ 28500 years
