An atomic mass unit (symbolized AMU or amu) is defined as precisely 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12. The carbon-12 (C-12) atom has six protons and six neutrons in its nucleus. In imprecise terms, one AMU is the average of the proton rest mass and the neutron rest mass.
Answer:
1) increases
2) smaller
Explanation:
Generally, as electron- electron repulsion increases and more electrons are added to the atom while Z is held constant, the electron cloud size is increased. The size of the anion formed is usually measured as the size of this extended electron cloud. Hence the larger electron cloud means a larger anion size compared to the size of the neutral atom.
For a cation, the converse is true and the cation is found to be smaller than the neutral atom.
Answer:
S.
Explanation:
North and South must always be opposite of each other.
This allows us to visually see the structure of the atoms/ molecules so we can get a better understanding of what they look like.
