Answer:

The correct option is;

A) 1 to 1.

Explanation:

A stab;e nuclei requires the presence of a neutron to accommodate the the protons repulsion forces within the nucleus. An increase in the number of protons should be accompanied by an even more instantaneous increase in the number of neutrons to balance the forces in the nucleus. If there is an excess of neutrons or a deficit in protons a state of unbalance exists in the nucleus, which results to nuclear instability.

Therefore, the ratio of neutrons to protons is an appropriate way in foretelling nuclear stability and a stable nuclei is known to have a proton to neutron ratio of 1:1 and the number of protons and neutrons in the stable nuclei are usually even numbers.

Why copper should not be disposed of in landfill sites?
Dafna1 [17]
Copper is a heavy metal that can harm many people. This process of heavy metals building in your body is called bioaccumulation and the process of this building in the food chain is called biomagnification. Its hard to rid of this heavy metal because it is very dense, therefore, cannot breakdown in our bodies. Heavy metals get consumed by producers and then reach to the top of the pyramid (us) so we have the highest risk of getting diseases and so on. Make sure you explain that heavy metals get passed from industrial purposes where companies do not dispose of waste properly.

Suppose you were required to make a solution by diluting 20.0 mL of an aqueous solution to a final volume of 750 mL.
torisob [31]
The first thing you do before performing anything in the laboratory is to read the procedure and prepare the materials needed. Next, if you already have the solution where you are supposed to take your 20 mL sample, then have it near you. Then, prepare a volumetric flask (750 mL) and a 20-mL pipette. Wash the pipette 3 times with the sample solution. If your diluent is water, wash the flask 3 times with water. Now, get 20 mL of sample from your parent solution, then add it to the flask (previously washed with water). Finally, add water until the mark in the flask and make sure that the water added is up to the mark based on the lower meniscus reading to be accurate in the amount inside the flask. <span />
