Chemistry
1 answer:
ohaa [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Oxygen

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Number of electrons = 8

Number of protons = 8

Number of Neutrons = 8

Name of element =?

Next, we shall determine the atomic number of the element. This can be obtained as follow:

The atomic number of an element is simply defined as the number of protons in the atom of the element. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Atomic number = proton number

From the question given above,

Number of protons = 8

Therefore,

Atomic number = 8

Comparing the atomic number of the element (i.e 8) with those in the periodic table, we can conclude that the element is oxygen since no two elements have the same atomic number.

Worldwide, the single most important chemical weathering agent is ________. worldwide, the single most important chemical weathe
Juliette [100K]
The single most important chemical weathering agent is Carbon dioxide.
Weathering refers to the process that change the physical and chemical character of rock at or near the surface. Weathering has a dramatic impact on the composition of Earth's atmosphere. Chemical weathering removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, allowing it to be transformed into limestone and stored in the crust. Without chemical weathering, the elevated levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would have long made Earth too hot to sustain life.

Select the correct answer. Which statement best describes how chemical equations demonstrate conservation of mass? OA The number
timofeeve [1]

Answer: C. The number of atoms of each element is the same on each side of the equation.

Explanation:

The Law of Conservation of Matter shows that it is not possible for matter to either be created nor for it to be destroyed so the number of atoms of each element on the reactant side of the equation must equal the number of atoms in each element on the product side of the equation.

This is why the following equation is incomplete:

H₂ + O₂ ⇒ H₂O

The oxygen atoms are not the same on either side.

Equation will therefor have to be balanced which will make it:

2H₂ + O₂ ⇒ 2H₂O

Notice now that atoms are the same on both sides.
