Answer: Manholes are usually round, primarily because roundness is the best shape to resist the compression of the earth; covers are round because they are easier to manufacture than square or rectangular shapes, they are easier to move by rolling, and they can't fall into the opening.
Explanation:
Answer:
This means that the isotope of silicon with a mass number of 28 is by far the most common of these three isotopes.
Explanation:
The abundance of Si-28 is 92.23%. Si-29 is 4.68% and Si-30 is 3.09%.
Because most Si atoms have a mass of 28 amu, the average mass of all silicon atoms is very close to 28.
Here is a video which summarizes how to calculate average atomic mass from data about mass and relative abundance.
Answer:
Manganese: Mn
Explanation:
The elestron configuration would show this is 25 electrons
Atomic number : 25
this electron configuration ends in 
half of the d subshell which is 10
Explanation:
Rutherford conducted an experiment in which he took a thin gold particle film on which he passes alpha- particles. He noticed that:
- Most of the alpha particles get through the film and can be detected by the detector.
- Around small portion of the alpha particle deflected at small angles.
- A very very few alpha particle (approximately 1 out of 1 million alpha particles) just retraced their path which means come back from the center.
He concluded that:
<u>Most of the space of the atom is empty and in the center of the atom , there is solid mass which is the cause of the alpha particles to come back. He gave the term nucleus to this solid mass.</u>
