Matthew is looking at two different atoms. One has 8 protons and 10 neutrons. The other substance has 8 protons and 12 neutrons.

Are these the same element? Why or why not?

Answer:

They are the same element.

Explanation:

Atom >>>>> Proton >>>> Neutron

A >>>>>>>> 8 >>>>>>>>> 10

B >>>>>>>> 8 >>>>>>>>> 12

From the table above we can see that both atoms have the same proton number.

Therefore, they are the same element because they have the same proton number which means that they have the same atomic number. The element in this case is existing as an isotope in that the atoms have the same proton number but different neutron number.

List atleast to conditions that could cause the pressure inside a sealed container of gas to increase
hjlf
There are exactly three ways that could happen:

1).  The container was heated, and the gas inside it got warmer.

2).  Some part inside the container moved somehow, and made
      the inside volume smaller, so the gas got scrunched into a
      smaller space.

3).  Somebody pumped some more gas into the container, so
      a greater amount of gas had to live in the same space.

When the atmosphere is not quite clear, one may sometimes see colored circles concentric with the Sun or the Moon. These are gen
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

D) diffraction

Explanation:

Corona is an optical phenomenon produced by the diffraction of sunlight or moonlight, as light moves through water droplets in the atmosphere.

This phenomenon produces one or more diffuse concentric rings of light around the Sun or Moon, usually seen as colored circles.

Therefore, the explanation for these phenomena of colored concentric circles, sometimes seen with the Sun or the Moon involves diffraction.

What is a wave? Use the terms wavelength and frequency in your definition.
adelina 88 [10]

Explanation:

A wave is a disturbance in a medium. For example, when some pebbles are thrown in water, the water particles gets disturbed. A wave is characterized by the following parameters i.e.

Frequency

Wavelength etc

The number of oscillations or vibrations in a medium is called the frequency of a wave.

Also, the distance between two consecutive crests and troughs is called the wavelength of a wave. The relationship between the wavelength and the frequency of a wave is given by :

Speed of wave = frequency × wavelength
