<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

B. the number of protons and neutrons

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>Nuclear reactions involve a change in the nucleus of an atom, usually producing a different element. Chemical reactions, on the other hand, involve only a rearrangement of electrons and do not involve changes in the nuclei.</u></em>
  • Therefore the parts of an atom that can change during a nuclear reaction but can not change during a chemical reaction is <u><em>the number of protons and neutrons that are found in the nucleus.</em></u>

Neutrons and protons cannot be removed from nucleus from chemical reactions because they are strongly held together but nuclear reactions are strong enough to separate them. Hence option A is correct.

When atoms of an element are excited, they emit specific wavelengths of light. How is this similar to a fingerprint when Fraunho
Anika [276]

Answer:

As you may know, each element has a "fixed" number of protons and electrons.

These electrons live in elliptical orbits around the nucleus, called valence levels or energy levels.

We know that as further away are the orbits from the nucleus, the more energy has the electrons in it. (And those energies are fixed)

Now, when an electron jumps from a level to another, there is also a jump in energy, and that jump depends only on the levels, then the jump in energy is fixed.

Particularly, when an electron jumps from a more energetic level to a less energetic one, that change in energy must be compensated in some way, and that way is by radiating a photon whose energy is exactly the same as the energy of the jump.

And the energy of a photon is related to the wavelength of the photon, then we can conclude that for a given element, the possible jumps of energy levels are known, meaning that the possible "jumps in energy" are known, which means that the wavelengths of the radiated photons also are known. Then by looking at the colors of the bands (whose depend on the wavelength of the radiated photons) we can know almost exactly what elements are radiating them.

Suppose the battery in a clock wears out after moving thousand coulombs of charge through the clock at a rate of 0.5 Ma how long
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Hello your question is poorly written below is the complete question

Suppose the battery in a clock wears out after moving Ten thousand coulombs of charge through the clock at a rate of 0.5 Ma how long did the clock run on does battery and how many electrons per second slowed?

answer :

a) 231.48 days

b) n = 3.125 * 10^15

Explanation:

Battery moved 10,000 coulombs

current rate = 0.5 mA

<u>A) Determine how long the clock run on the battery. use the relation below</u>

q = i * t ----- ( 1 )

q = charge , i = current , t = time

10000 = 0.5 * 10^-3 * t

hence  t = 2 * 10^7 secs

hence the time = 231.48  days

<u>B) Determine how many electrons per second flowed </u>

q = n*e ------ ( 2 )

n = number of electrons

e = 1.6 * 10^-19

q = 0.5 * 10^-3 coulomb ( charge flowing per electron )

back to equation 2

n ( number of electrons ) = q / e = ( 0.5 * 10^-3 ) / ( 1.6 * 10^-19 )

hence : n = 3.125 * 10^15

The current atomic model has a ?
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Atoms have protons and neutrons in the center, making the nucleus, while the electrons orbit the nucleus. The modern atomic theory states that atoms of one element are the same, while atoms of different elements are different. What makes atoms of different elements different?

Newton's laws of motion are true on earth and space.
frez [133]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

It is a common misunderstanding that objects in space have no weight. If that were true, they would just float away from the Earth, the Sun and the other planets. Objects in low Earth orbit experience about 90% of the weight that they feel on the surface of the Earth.
