Answer:

To find the number of neutrons we would subtract the number of protons from mass number of an atom.

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 if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

For example:

The mass number of carbon is 12 amu and it has six protons thus to find the number of neutrons we would subtract the 6 from 12 and get number of neutrons.

12- 6 = 6 neutrons

Types of atoms. The basic unit of matter. Pure substance is what?
ivanzaharov [21]

Solids, liquids, gases, and plasma are all matter. When all atoms that make up a substance are the same, then that substance is an element. Elements made of only one kind of atom. Because of this, elements are called "pure" substances.

hope this helps :)

Which option is an example of a chemical property?
Alona [7]
Answer:
The ability to decompose
Explanation:
A property is a chemical property when it changes the chemical structure of a substance after a reaction.
Density and color are both physical properties.
Even though melting point may seem like a chemical property, when something melts, only the physical state changes, and the chemical structure does not change, and therefore, is a physical property.
The ability to decompose is a chemical property. When something decomposes, the chemical structure of many molecules change, and therefore, is classified as a chemical property.

A force of 100 newtons is applied to a box at an angle of 36º with the horizontal. If the mass of the box is 25 kilograms, what
notka56 [123]

Answer:

a_x=4.944m/s^2

Explanation:

Hello,

Based on the acting force that is applied horizontally, one can propose the following equation based on Newton's laws:

F=ma

Nevertheless, since we've got a angled force, it becomes:

F=macos\theta

In this case, cos\theta accounts for the formed angle, so the horizontal acceleration turns out into:

a_x=\frac{F}{mcos\theta}=\frac{100kg*\frac{m}{s^2} }{25kgcos(36^0)}=4.944m/s^2

Best regads.

A grating has 470 lines/mm. how many orders of the visible wavelength 538 nm can it produce in addition to the m = 0 order?
maria [59]

Three complete orders on each side of the m=0 order can be produced in addition to the m = 0 order.

The ruling separation is

d=1 / (470mm −1) = 2.1×10⁻³ mm

Diffraction lines occur at angles θ such that dsinθ=mλ, where λ is the wavelength and m is an integer.

Notice that for a given order, the line associated with a long wavelength is produced at a greater angle than the line associated with a shorter wavelength.

We take λ to be the longest wavelength in the visible spectrum (538nm) and find the greatest integer value of m such that θ is less than 90°.

That is, find the greatest integer value of m for which mλ<d.

since  d / λ = 538×10⁻⁹m / 2.1×10 −6 m ≈ 3

that value is m=3.

There are three complete orders on each side of the m=0 order.

The second and third orders overlap.

Which of the following claims may be made based on your observations? (You will recieve negative points for wrong answers.)
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

D, E and F

Explanation:

About tetrachloro cobalt complexes, the following facts have been observed  

  • Color of the tetrachloro cobalt complexes is blue.
  • They do not decompose on heating that means synthesis of tetra chloro is endothermic.

About hexa aqua cobalt complexes, the following facts have been observed  

  • Color of the hexa aqua cobalt complexes is pink color.
  • They decompose on heating and remain stable on cooling that means process of synthesis of hexa aqua cobalt complexes is exothermic.

Based on above, the correct statements are:

The correct is chloro cobalt complex is blue and aqua cobalt  

complex is pink.  

The chloro complex is favored by heating.

If the chloro complex is a product, then the reaction must be endothermic.

The correct options are D, E and F.
