I’m pretty sure it’s B since ones charge the neutral while ones is positive, it’s an obvious difference as well/

Answer:

b. Charge is the main difference

Explanation:

This is a theory question which you just need to understand and remember the concepts.

Protons and neutrons are relatively the same sizes.

The charges here are defined, protons are positively charged and neutrons have no charge (electrically neutral).

Both are located in the nucleus of an atom.

Proton radiation rarely occurs and neutron radiation is a form of ionizing radiation in cases typically of nuclear fission or nuclear fusion.

The most likely answer is that the charge is the main difference. This is also a basic concept so this would be the answer.

How do you find the metal “M”
Elodia [21]

M = Sr (strontium)

<em>Step 1.</em> Calculate the <em>moles of CO_2</em>.

Moles of CO_2 = 0.395 g CO_2 × (1 mol CO_2/44.01 g CO_2)

= 0.008 975 mol CO_2

<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the <em>moles of MCO_3</em>.

Moles of MCO_3 = 0.008 975 mol CO_2 × (1 mol MCO_3/1 mol CO_2)

= 0.008 975 mol MCO_3

<em>Step 3</em>. Calculate the molar mass of <em>MCO_3</em>

MM = grams/moles = 1.324 g/0.008 75 mol = 147.5 g/mol

<em>Step 4</em>. Calculate the <em>atomic mass of M</em>

M_r = <em>x</em> + 12.01 + 3×16.00 = <em>x</em> + 60.01 = 147.5

<em>x</em> = 147.5 – 60.01 = 87.5

<em>Step 5. Identify M</em>.

The element with the closest atomic mass is Sr (A_r = 87.6).

∴ M = Sr and the compound is SrCO_3.

What are some important things in this paragraph ???? BRAINLIST WILL BE AWARDED!
mezya [45]

Answer:

Suppose you were standing in the dark room with a bare light bulb behind you. You hold a ball in front of you, and you can see all of the lit half of the ball, which looks like a circle.

you rotate 90° to your left, and see the left side of the circle lit while the right side is dark. Half the ball is still lit up, but you can see only part of the lit area. As you continue to rotate, you see a different amount of the ball. In fact, you would see the shape change from a full circle to a crescent shape to a backwards crescent shape and then back to a full circle.

I think this is it tell me if i'm wrong
