The atomic number (Z) uniquely identifies a chemical element. In an uncharged atom, the atomic number is also equal to the number of electrons.
The atomic number, Z, should not be confused with the mass number, A, which is the number of nucleons, the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.
In this video Kristine Born explains this two concepts in more detail.
The ocean hold 97 percent of earths water.
Answer:
It helps the body remove heat through sweating.
Explanation:
When the weather is hot, the body tries to keep cool by sweating. The high specific heat capacity means that the body doesn't have to lose much water to stay cool.
The high specific heat capacity of water doesn’t heat the body, but it slows down the rate of heat loss when the weather is cool.
B is wrong. The body uses glucose, not water, as an energy source.
C is wrong. The high specific heat capacity of water is not connected with the body's ability to store it.
D is wrong. The high specific heat capacity of water doesn't heat the body, but it slows the rate at which it cools.
Helium has more protons making it heavier by one atomic mass.
