Answer:

Potassium (K) has 19 protons.

Each neutral atom of Potassium has 19 electrons.

Explanation:

A) Potassium has 19 protons because the atomic number tells us how many protons are in an atom of the element. (The atomic number is the number above the element symbol. For example, the number above "K" is 19, which is the atomic number).

B) If an atom is neutral, this means that the atom has neutral energy. Protons give positive energy and electrons give negative energy. For the atom to be neutral, the atom must have balanced energy, therefore, making the number of electrons equal to the number of protons in a neutral atom.

If a uranium atom undergoes both alpha and gamma decay, what happens to it?
WARRIOR [948]

If a uranium atom undergoes both alpha and gamma decay, then it means that there will be formation of one helium particle which is also known as alpha particle and gamma decay is the radiation or release of energy. Whereas in a radioactive reaction, Uranium-235 absorbs a neutron and splits into two new atoms.

Answer:

The reaction is exothermic

The temperature of the water bath goes up

Explanation:

An exothermic reaction is one in which energy flows out of the reaction system.

In this case, the system is the reaction vessel while the surrounding is the water bath. We see in the question that 300.1J of heat flows out of the system during the reaction. This is heat lost to the surroundings showing that the reaction is exothermic.

As energy is lost to the surroundings, the temperature of the water bath rises accordingly.
