Describe what happens to the weight of an astronaut as she travels from the surface of

Chemistry

Juli2301 [7.4K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Earth-orbiting astronauts are weightless for the same reasons that riders of a free-falling amusement park ride or a free-falling elevator are weightless. They are weightless because there is no external contact force pushing or pulling upon their body. In each case, gravity is the only force acting upon their body

If you had a sample containing 55 alpha particles, how many protons would be present in that sample? Show all necessary work.
arlik [135]
An alpha particle is a helium nucleus without the electrons - 2 neutrons and 2 protons.

So, all you would have to do is 2 x 55, which equals 110.

Now select a longer period, say the fourth period, starting with the element in the 1A group. Again, go from left to right. What
Inessa [10]

Answer:

The pattern of change in the electron configuration increases from left to right across the period.

Explanation:

In the periodic table, elements having the same number of electrons in the outermost shell of their atoms are placed over one another in vertical columns. Each of the vertical columns is known as a group or family. while each of the resulting horizontal rows is known as a period or row.

There are 18 vertical columns and seven periods in the periodic table. Each period begins with an atom having a valence electron and ends with an atom having a complete outer shell structure of an inert gas.

The fourth period of the periodic table (d-block) consists of the transition elements.

The electron distribution into the energy levels of sublevels of atoms  can be shown in any of the tree important electronic configuration.

Electronic configuration shows the sequence of filling electrons into the orbitals of the sublevels as guided by some principles.

The maximum number of electrons in the orbitals of sublevels are two for s-sublevel(one orbital) ; six for p-sublevel( three orbital); ten for d-sublevel ( five orbitals) and fourteen for f-sublevel( seven orbitals). This indicates that the maximum number of electrons in an orbital is two

In the Periodic table ,The sublevels with lower energies are filled  up before those with higher energies. One important thing about this principle is that the sublevels do not fill up in numerical order. The pattern of filling is as follows:

1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s, 4d, 5p, 6s, 4f, 5d, 6p, 7s, 5f etc.

An airplane model is an example of what type of model
Ksju [112]
TL;DR: The make of an aircraft is the name of the designer (for example, Boeing) and the model of an aircraft (also called the type) is the designation for the general design of the aircraft (for example, 737). It looks like "basic model" is just an older term for "model".
