There is an unstable ratio of protons and neutrons. Because protons are positively charged but neutrons have no charge, an increase in the number of protons means there needs to be an increase in the number of neutrons to "bind" the nucleus together. This is because like charges repel, so the protons will repel each other, and if there aren't enough neutrons to act as "glue" to hold the nucleus together, the nucleus will break apart.
False
Explanation:
Electron affinity is negative when energy is absorbed and it is positive when energy is released.
Electron affinity is defined as the energy released in adding an electron to a neutral atom in the gas phase.
It is a measure of the readiness of an atom to gain an electron.
In a reaction where energy is released, electron affinity is usually positive. These reactions are called exothermic reactions.
Endothermic reactions in which energy is absorbed have negative electron affinity values.

The answer is D. His belief is was that atoms could not be split. That is what was disproved really fast ;)
Answer:
159 mg caffeine is being extracted in 60 mL dichloromethane
Explanation:
Given that:
mass of caffeine in 100 mL of water = 600 mg
Volume of the water = 100 mL
Partition co-efficient (K) = 4.6
mass of caffeine extracted = ??? (unknown)
The portion of the DCM = 60 mL
Partial co-efficient (K) = 
where;
solubility of compound in the organic solvent and
= solubility in aqueous water.
So; we can represent our data as:
÷ 
Since one part of the portion is A and the other part is B
A+B = 60 mL
A+B = 0.60
A= 0.60 - B
4.6=
÷ 
4.6 = 
4.6 ×
=
4.6 B
= 0.6 - B
2.76 B = 0.6 - B
2.76 + B = 0.6
3.76 B = 0.6
B = 
B = 0.159 g
B = 159 mg
∴ 159 mg caffeine is being extracted from the 100 mL of water containing 600 mg of caffeine with one portion of in 60 mL dichloromethane.
Answer:
c 18.0ml
Explanation:
The average mass of one H2O molecule is 18.02 amu. The number of atoms is an exact number, the number of mole is an exact number; they do not affect the number of significant figures. The average mass of one mole of H2O is 18.02 grams. This is stated: the molar mass of water is 18.02 g/mol.
