6 0

Answer:

Number of protons

Explanation:

There are three sub atomic particles. These are;

- Protons

- Electrons

- Neutrons

Among these three particles, only one determines the identity of the element. This is the Protons. The number of protons which is also called the atomic number determines the identity of an element. For instance, atom with one proton is Hydrogen and n other element can have atomic number of one.

What is the pH difference of two samples if the concentration of [H+] ions is 1000-fold less in the second sample?
snow_tiger [21]
The correct answer is a. This is because the pH of a solution is defined as -log10(concentration of H+ ions). An inverse logarithmic scale such as this means that a solution with a lower concentration of H+ ions will have a higher pH than one with a higher concentration. Therefore we know that the pH of the second sample will be higher than the first.

Since the logarithmic scale has the base 10, a change by 1 on the scale is a consequence of multiplication/division of the H+ concentration by a factor of 10. As the scale is inverse, this means that a decrease of concentration by factor 1000 is equivalent to increasing the pH by (1000/10) = 3.

An asteroid hit the Yucatán Peninsula about 65 million years ago,
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

C. It blocked out sunlight

Explanation:

The asteroid impact 65 million years ago was devastating for lot of the animals and plants, resulting in a mass extinction, most noticeably of the dinosaurs. The impact itself killed a lot of flora and fauna, but it was the effect afterward that was crucial. From this impact, there was so much debris propelled into the atmosphere that the sunlight got blocked. Once this happened, most of the plants died out as they were not able to perform photosynthesis. Because the plants were dying out, the herbivores were left without food, so soon they followed, and because the herbivores died out, the predators died out to because they were left without food. The winners turned out to be the small and not specialized plants and animals.
