What can always be said about a negatively-charged ion?

Physics
1 answer:
KiRa [710]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons

Explanation:

First, we know that the elementary negative charge is the electron, while the positive one is the proton. Such that both have the same charge in magnitude, but a different sign. Such that if we have the same number of electrons and protons in an atom, the charge of this atom will be neutral.

And an ion is an atom with a different number of electrons and protons, so the charge of the atom is not neutral.

Then if we have a negatively-charged ion, the charge of this atom is negative. Then we must have a larger number of electrons (the negative ones) than protons (the positive ones)

Then the correct option is:

A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

a) 3673469.39 seconds

b) 6.61×10¹⁴ m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity = 0.12×3×10⁸ m/s

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0.12\times 3\times 10^8=0+9.8t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0.12\times 3\times 10^8}{9.8}=3673469.39\ s

Time taken to reach 12% of light speed is 3673469.39 seconds

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{(0.12\times 3\times 10^8)^2-0^2}{2\times 9.8}\\\Rightarrow s=6.61 \times 10^{14}\ m

The distance it would have to travel is 6.61×10¹⁴ m

These spectra are from the same element. Which is an emission spectrum, which an absorption spectrum?
RSB [31]

Answer:

D. Top is emission; bottom absorption.

Explanation:

Emission and spectrum of elements are due to the element absorbing or emitting wavelength of e-m energy. Elementary particles of elements can absorb energy from a ground state to enter an excited state, creating an absorption spectrum, or they can lose energy and fall back to a lower energy state, creating an emission spectrum. A simple rule to differentiate between an emission and an absorption spectrum is that: "all absorbed wavelength is emitted, but not all emitted wavelength is absorbed."

From the image, the lines indicates wavelengths. We can see that all of the wavelengths of the bottom absorption spectrum coincides with some of the wavelength of the upper emission wavelengths.

A hoop and a disk with uniform mass distribution have the same radius but the total masses are not known. Can they both roll dow
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

radius of hoop and the radius of disk is same = R

Let the mass of hoop is M and the mass of disk is M'.

As they reach the bottom of teh surface in same time so they travel equal distance thus, they have same acceleration.

The acceleration is given by

a=\frac{gSin\theta }{1+\frac{I}{MR^{2}}}

As the acceleration is same so that the moment of inertia is also same.

Moment of inertia of disk = moment of inertia of hoop

1/2 x mass of disk x R² =  mass of hoop x R²

So, mass of disk = 2 x mass of hoop

Option (c) is correct.

Nuclearissionoccursthroughmanydifferent pathways. For the ission of U-235 induced by a neutron, write a nuclear equation to form
ruslelena [56]

Answer: a) ^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^{1}_{0}\textrm{n} \rightarrow ^{87}_{35}\textrm {Br}+ ^{146}_{57}\La + 3^{1}_{0}n

b) ^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^1_0\textrm{n}\rightarrow ^{140}_{56}\textrm{Ba}+^{94}_{36}\textrm{Kr}+2^1_0\textrm{n}

Explanation:

A nuclear fission reaction is defined as the reaction in which a heavy nucleus splits into small nuclei along with release of energy.

a) The given reaction is ^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^{1}_{0}\textrm{n} \rightarrow ^{87}_{35}\textrm {Br}+ ^{146}_{57}\La + x^{1}_{0}n

Now,  as the mass on both reactant and product side must be equal:

235+1=87+146+x

x=3

Thus three neutrons are produced and nuclear equation will be: ^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^{1}_{0}\textrm{n} \rightarrow ^{87}_{35}\textrm {Br}+ ^{146}_{57}\La + 3^{1}_{0}n

b) For the another fission reaction:

^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^1_0\textrm{n}\rightarrow ^{A}_{56}\textrm{Ba}+^{94}_{Z}\textrm{X}+2^1_0\textrm{n}

To calculate A:

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

235 + 1 = A + 94 + 2

A = 140

To calculate Z:

Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side

92 + 0 = 56 + Z + 0

Z = 36

As Krypton has atomic number of 36,Thus the nuclear equation will be :

^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^1_0\textrm{n}\rightarrow ^{140}_{56}\textrm{Ba}+^{94}_{36}\textrm{Kr}+2^1_0\textrm{n}
