Answer: Ionization energy is the amount of energy necessary to <u>remove an electron from an atom</u>
Explanation:
Ionization consists of the production of ions, which are electrically charged atoms or molecules due to the excess or lack of electrons with respect to a neutral atom or molecule.
In this sense, ionization energy is the <u>energy necessary to separate (remove) an electron from a gaseous atom</u>, isolated and in a fundamental state. This is because <u>electrons are strongly attracted to the nucleus and it is necessary to provide energy to separate them</u>. However, where the atom always loses electrons is in the last layer, which is where the weakest electrons are attracted to the nucleus.

Answer: (C) Radioactive dating</h2>
Explanation:
Let's begin by explaining that radioactive decay is a spontaneous process in which the nucleus of an atom disintegrates, giving way to the emission of radiation and the appearance of a new nucleus, releasing energy in the process.
<u>This process is widely used in</u><u> radioactive dating</u> (also called isotopic dating or radioisotope dating) in which radioactive impurities were selectively incorporated when the fossil materials were formed.
In this sense, when dating the age of the Earth and its components, it is useful to compare them with a naturally occurring radioisotope having a known half-life (generally uranium-238 is used and sometimes carbon-14).
Answer:I'm not sure, but I think it's antisocial
Explanation:
A fraction ALWAYS indicates a ratio.
Answer:
10.6 s
Explanation:
First of all, let's convert both speeds into m/s:
- Cheetah:
- Gazelle:
Taking as reference the position x = 0, the position of the cheetah at time t is
while the position of the gazelle, which starts 68.8 m ahead, is
The cheetah catches the gazelle when the two positions are equal:
and substituting the speeds and solving for t, we find the time at which the cheetah reaches the gazelle:
