Chemistry

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option B.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Isotope is defined as the chemical specie which belong to the same element but differ in their molecular mass.

The isotopes have same atomic mass but differ in their mass numbers

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or electrons that are present in a neutral atom.

Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

Thus, isotopes of an element has same number of protons but they differ in the number of neutrons.

<u>For Example:</u> Chlorine has 2 isotopes, _{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl}\text{ and }_{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl}

  • <u>In _{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl} isotope:</u>

Number of protons = 17

Number of neutrons = 35 - 17 = 18

  • <u>In _{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl} isotope:</u>

Number of protons = 17

Number of neutrons = 37 - 17 = 20

Hence, the correct answer is Option B.

In an extraction procedure, it is advisable to: save all layers until the experiment is complete. throw away all layers as soon
LenKa [72]

All the layers should be kept until the experiment is complete.

<h3>What is extraction?</h3>

In chemistry, solvent extraction is accomplished by adding a sample containing the substance to be separated into a system of two solvents, an aqueous layer and an organic layer.

It is important to note that all the layers should be kept until the experiment is complete. No layer ought to be discarded before the work is completed.

If a car can go from 0 to 60 mi/hr in 8.0 seconds, what would be its final speed after 5.0 seconds if its starting speed were 50
tangare [24]

Answer:

87.5 mi/hr

Explanation:

Because a = Δv / Δt (a = vf - vi/ Δt), we need to find the acceleration first to know the change in velocity so we can determine the final velocity.

vf = 60 mi/hr

vi = 0 mi/hr

Δt = 8 secs

a = vf - vi/ Δt

= 60 mi/hr - 0 mi/hr/ 8 secs

= 60 mi/hr / 8 secs

= 7.5 mi/hr^2

Now that we know the acceleration of the car is 7. 5 mi/hr^2, we can substitute it in the acceleration formula to find the final velocity when the initial velocity is 50 mi/hr after 5 secs.

vi = 50 mi/ hr

Δt = 5 secs

a = 7.5 mi/ hr^2

a = vf - vi/ Δt

7.5 = vf - 50 mi/hr / 5 secs

37.5 = vf - 50

87.5 mi/ hr = vf
