Which statement correctly compares the masses of subatomic particles in an atom such as carbon?
iogann1982 [59]

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.

Answer:

2HClO4(aq) + Ca(OH)2(aq) → Ca(ClO4)2(aq) + 2H2O(l)

Perchloric acid + Calcium hydroxide → Calcium perchlorate + Water.

Explanation:

This is a neutralization reaction where the acid, Perchloric acid reacts completely with an appropriate amount of base, aqueous Calcium hydroxide to produce salt, aqueous Calcium perchlorate and water, liquid H2O only.

During this reaction, the hydrogen ion, H+, from the HClO4 is neutralized by the hydroxide ion, OH-, from the Ca(OH)2 to form the water molecule, H2O.

Thus, it is called a neutralization reaction.
