1. ASSERTION AND REASONING QUESTIONS:

Biology
1 answer:
frozen [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

1) B

2) A

3) A

4) D

Explanation:

An atom is neutral because it contains an equal number of protons and electrons. Though the atom actually contains neutrons, this reason does not explain the electrical neutrality of the atom.

The L shell actually contains eight electrons because the maximum number of electrons accommodated in each shell is given by 2n^2 where n is the principal quantum number. Since the L-shell corresponds to n=2 then the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

The valency of atoms is determined by the number of electrons in the outermost shell of the atom. Remember that atoms having a filed valence shell(eight electrons in the outermost shell) have a valency of zero. Hence the noble gases possess a zero valency. Thus the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

Nitrogen forms its ion by electron gain and not by electron loss because nitrogen forms an anion. This anion is formed by a gain of three electrons. The assertion is false but the reason is true.

If we know the atoms mass in amu and we know the number of protons of the atom, can we calculate the number of neutrons that con
olga nikolaevna [1]
Yes you can. The atomic mass measured from the proteins and neutrons in an atom, since you know he number of protons, you can subtract and be left with the number of neutrons.
