A neutral atom is one that has no net charge. In other words, the number of positive charges cancels out with the number of negative charges, so the number of protons equals the number of electrons. Uranium has 92 protons, which means it has a total positive charge of +92. To have a neutral charge, the atom MUST have 92 electrons, as that is a negative charge of -92, and the net charge is ultimately (protons + electrons) = ([+92] + [-92]) = 0.

Which of the following statements is true of proteins?
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

The answer is Denaturation is reversible

Explanation:

Denaturation of proteins is the process whereby there is a disruption in the tertiary, quaternary or secondary structure of proteins which causes a conformation change in its action

denaturation is reversible, that is, the proteins can regain their native state when the denaturing influence is removed. This process can be called renaturation.

A sample of the mineral hematite Iron (III) oxide has a mass of 12.4g. How many moles of the mineral are present?
8090 [49]

Thus problem is providing us with the mass of iron (III) oxide as 12.4 g so the moles are required and found to be 0.0776 mol after the calculations:

<h3>Mole-mass relationships:</h3>

In chemistry, we use mole-mass relationships in order to calculate grams from moles and vice versa. In this case, since we are given the mass of iron (III) oxide as 12.4 g one can calculate the moles by firstly quantifying its molar mass:

Fe_2O_3\rightarrow 2*55.85 g/mol+3*16.00 g/mol=159.7g/mol

Then, we prepare a conversion factor in order to cancel out the grams and thus, get moles:

12.4gFe_2O_3*\frac{1molFe_2O_3}{159.7gFe_2O_3} \\\\=0.0776molFe_2O_3

What is one advantage of doing a feild experiment instead of a laboratory experiment
Ber [7]

Answer:

  Field experiments can often have the potential to give scientists opportunities that are not possible in a lab setting.

Explanation:

  Having people "act natural" in a lab setting is impossible to truly achieve, as we all know what happens to our mental state and behavior when we are being actively observed. This is also especially helpful when conducting wildlife research, as there are a myriad of different things influencing animal and plant behavior that would be nigh impossible to recreate perfectly in a controlled lab setting.

  Field research can have its disadvantages as well, as it is very hard to only have one thing change (make an independent variable) in a wild environment with ever-changing weather, social effects, etc. Also, you, as the researcher, as causing an impact on the very location that you are observing, which can alter your results in unpredictable ways.

  The thing to remember is that each type of study has its advantages and disadvantages; if they didn't, then we'd all do the same type of research! You have to weigh your research options and figure out which one works best for your situation :)
