Answer:
An electron is a negatively charged subatomic particle and a proton is a positively charged subatomic particle. Positive charge(s) attract negative charge(s) and vice versa. The proton and neutron stay together and attract one another to give the atom an overall charge of zero (neutral). Which is the charge of an atom. When there is an unequal number of protons and neutrons an ion is formed. If the number of protons are more than the electron, a positively charged ion called cation is formed. On the other hand, if the number of electrons are more than the protons a negatively charged ion called anion is formed.
Answer:
0.50 mol
Explanation:
The half-life is <em>the time required for the amount of a radioactive isotope to decay to half that amount</em>.
Initially, there are 8.0 moles.
- After 1 half-life, there remain 1/2 × 8.0 mol = 4.0 mol.
- After 2 half-lives, there remain 1/2 × 4.0 mol = 2.0 mol.
- After 3 half-lives, there remain 1/2 × 2.0 mol = 1.0 mol.
- After 4 half-lives, there remain 1/2 × 1.0 mol = 0.50 mol.
The ball isn't magnetic, therefore, the nail wasn't attracted towards the ball, but rather towards the magnet.
