Explanation:

The atoms of one element differs from the atoms of other elements in terms of the number of protons they contain. This is often taken as the atomic number of such an atom.

The number of proton is the best indicator of the atom one is dealing with.
Based on this number, elements are categorized into distinct columns and rows on the periodic table.
The atomic number is the number of protons or positively charge particles in the atom.

II.

It is possible to change the identity of an atom. This is only possible by altering the atomic number of the atom.

Only nuclear reactions have this capability.

When an atom undergoes nuclear reaction that involves change in number of protons, transmutation occurs and a new atom forms.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

A stronger acid is needed to neutralize the reaction.

Explanation:

Neutral pH solutions are because the acid counteracts the effect of the base, and vice versa.

Both chemical products, both acid and base, reach a pH of 7, which indicates the neutrality of the solution in the reaction, that is, the solution is neither acidic nor basic but NEUTRAL.

The higher the alkalinity of the base, the greater the acidity of the acid will be needed to balance and balance the pH to give neutrality as the final product.

What's the constant presuure of gas?

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Constant pressure of gas must have a constant volume and a constant number of moles of gas. It's equation is the ideal gas law: pV=nRT

Explanation:

The gas state is the most excited state. It doesn't have a definite volume or shape which is why it can be compressed. Gas pressure is basically the result of all the gas particles moving around and colliding against each other and their container. The rate this happens at as well as its force determines the pressure. Since there are many, many of these gas particles in all quantities of gas, the fluctuation of this rate as well as its intesity is nearly constant.
