Answer:

The mass number of the atom is equal to the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus

Explanation:

Each proton and each neutron weigh one amu( atomic mass unit), adding together the neutrons and protons and multiplying by 1 amu you get the mass of an atom

An object has a weight of 5.10 Newtons (N) at sea level, where the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2.

RUDIKE [14]

Well, you could get the mass as $m=\frac{G_0}{g_0}$ ad then $g_1=\frac{G_1}{m}$ , where $G_0$ is the sea level weight, $g_0$ the sea level accel., $g_1$ the accel. above while $G_1$ the weight above.

Answer:

pH=2.34

Explanation:

HBr -> H + Br

The dissociation it's complete, for that reason the concentration of the products is the same of HBr

[H+]=[Br-]=0.00234 M

pH= - log (0.00234)=2.34

Which of the following represents the smallest mass? I.) 23 cg II.) 2.3 x 10-3 μg III.) 0.23 mg IV.) 0.23 g V.) 2.3 x 10-2 kg

jenyasd209 [6]

The smallest mass among the choices is Choice (ii):2.3 x 10-3 μg

This is so because, the prefix μ signifies a factor of 10^-6.

For choice I:

23 cg means 23 centigrams

In essence = 0.23grams

For choice II:

2.3 × 10-3 μg means 2.3 × 10-9 grams

For choice III:

0.23 mg means 0.23 × 10-3 grams

For choice IV:

0.23 grams simply means 0.23grams

For choice V:

2.3 × 10-2 kg means 23 grams

Ultimately, Choice II represents the smallest mass.
