Answer:
A) a government's website
This is due to the difference in density. The rock is
denser than the leaf. And also, the rock is denser than the liquid in the pond.
If the material is denser than the other material, it will sink. The same holds
true for the rock, it sinks. But when the material is less dense than the other
material, it floats. And it holds true for the leaf, it floats.
In order to find out the ranking of ions basicity, check the
pKa values of each ions. The principle that you need to remember is that the
stronger the acid the weaker the corresponding conjugate base. The pKa dictates
acid value of the compound. The answer would be CH3NH, CH3O-, and CH3CH2-.
Answer:
An atom of Al which has 13 protons and 10 electrons is Al cation (Al⁺³)
Explanation:
An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.
All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other.
For example,
Al atom has 13 protons and 13 electrons. The number of positive and negative charge is equal thus it will be neutral atom.
While the atom of Al which have 13 proton and 10 electron is not neutral. The positive charge is greater than negative by 3. Which means 3 electrons are lose by Al atom and form cation "Al⁺³".
Thus an atom of Al which has 13 protons and 10 electrons is Al cation (Al⁺³)
