Answer:
C- A proton has about the same mass as a neutron .
Explanation:
In an atom such as a carbon atom, the masses of the proton and neutrons are the same.
The mass of the electrons is very negligible.
- Protons are the positively charged particles in an atom
- Neutrons do not carry any charges
- Both protons and neutrons have similar masses.
- They contribute the bulk of the mass of the atom.
- The electrons carry negative charges and they have negligible masses.
The mass of protons and neutrons are similar.

i also need the is question help!!!
Explanation:
The grams of carbon dioxide that are in 35.6 liters of Co2 is calculates as below
calculate the number of moles of CO2
At STP 1 mole = 22.4 L
what about 35.6 liters
= 1mole x 35.6 liters/ 22.4 liters = 1.589 moles
mass of CO2 = moles x molar mass of CO2
= 1.589 mol x 44 g/mol = 69.92 grams
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Gamma radiation penetrates the cell wall of prokaryotic organisms such as bacteria and can inhibit their metabolic functions as well as destroy their DNA.
Debunking the other answers:
A is incorrect as Gamma radiation is used in the treatment of cancer via radiotherapy.
B is incorrect as Gamma rays are too small and would just penetrate any smoke particles.
C is incorrect because Gamma rays are used to disinfect food products to prevent food borne illness. Irradiation is safe to use on food and does not make it radioactive.
Thus, D is correct.
A joule times a second :)
