The atomic number or proton number (symbol Z) of a chemical element is the number of protons found in the nucleus of every atom of that element. The atomic number uniquely identifies a chemical element. It is identical to the charge number of the nucleus. In an uncharged atom, the atomic number is also equal to the number of electrons.

An excited ozone molecule, O3*, in the atmosphere can undergo one of the following reactions,O3* → O3 (1) fluorescenceO3* → O +

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The simplified expression for the fraction is $\text {X} = \dfrac{ {k_3 \times cM} }{k_1 +k_2 + k_3 }$

Explanation:

From the given information:

O3* → O3 (1) fluorescence

O + O2 (2) decomposition

O3* + M → O3 + M (3) deactivation

The rate of fluorescence = rate of constant (k₁) × Concentration of reactant (cO)

The rate of decomposition is = k₂ × cO

The rate of deactivation = k₃ × cO × cM

where cM is the concentration of the inert molecule

The fraction (X) of ozone molecules undergoing deactivation in terms of the rate constants can be expressed by using the formula:

$\text {X} = \dfrac{ \text {rate of deactivation} }{ \text {(rate of fluorescence) +(rate of decomposition) + (rate of deactivation) } } }$

$\text {X} = \dfrac{ {k_3 \times cO \times cM} }{ {(k_1 \times cO) +(k_2 \times cO) + (k_3 \times cO \times cM) } }$

$\text {X} = \dfrac{ {k_3 \times cO \times cM} }{cO (k_1 +k_2 + k_3 \times cM) }$

$\text {X} = \dfrac{ {k_3 \times cM} }{k_1 +k_2 + k_3 }$ since cM is the concentration of the inert molecule

Caleb has a 860-kilogram car sitting in his back yard, gathering rust.

emmasim [6.3K]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

A. 860 kg

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

To answer the question we need to understand that;

Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object.
Weight, on the other hand, refers to the gravitational pull of an object to a given surface.
Mass is measured using a spring balance.

We also need to know that;

The mass of an object remains constant every where irrespective of the gravitational acceleration.

Therefore, an object on the surface of the earth would have the same mass as on the surface of the moon.
In this case; the mass of the car remains the same on the outer space as on the back yard.

which of the following experiments follow ethical standards? A.)performing test on animals when the information can be obtained

olasank [31]

The answer is D because it sounds like the most ethical answer. The other choices are wrong because the could possibly hurt someone or an animal.
