Answer:

25 electrons.

Explanation:

In a neutral atom, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons, therefore there are 25 protons and 25 electrons.

Final Answer: 25 electrons

Explanation/Reasoning:

Hey there!

The number of protons in the nucleus of a neutral atom would have 25 protons. This is because it is equal to the atomic number.

The number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. So for our answer, the number of atoms in a neutral atom will be 25 electrons because the neutral atom had 25 protons.

What is the element with the lowest electronegativity value?

Lerok [7]

<h2>Answer: Francium </h2>

Let's start by explaining that electronegativity is a term coined by Linus Pauling and is determined by the <em>ability of an atom of a certain element to attract electrons when chemically combined with another atom. </em>

So, the more electronegative an element is, the more electrons it will attract.

It should be noted that this value can not be measured directly by experiments, but it can be determined indirectly by means of calculations from other atomic or molecular properties of the element. That is why the scale created by Pauling is an arbitrary scale, where the maximum value of electronegativity is 4, assigned to Fluorine (F) and the <u>lowest is 0.7, assigned to Francium (Fr).</u>

15. If an 800.-kg sports car slows to 13.0 m/s to check out an accident scene and the

goldfiish [28.3K]

The final combined velocity after the collision is 20.2 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: in fact, in absence of external forces, the total momentum of the two car and of the truck must be conserved before and after the collision.

This means that we can write the following equation:

$p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v$

where:

$m_1 = 800 kg$ is the mass of the sport car

$u_1 = 13.0 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the car (taking its direction as positive direction)

$m_2 = 1200 kg$ is the mass of the truck

$u_2 = 25.0 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the truck

$v$ is the final combined velocity of the car and the truck, after the collision

Re-arranging the equation and substituting the values, we find the velocity after the collision:

$v=\frac{m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2}{m_1+m_2}=\frac{(800)(13)+(1200)(25)}{800+1200}=20.2 m/s$

And the positive sign indicates their final direction is the same as the initial direction of the two vehicles.
