<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is the ratio of oxygen atoms to hydrogen atoms in a molecule of sugar is 2 to 1.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given chemical formula for table sugar is C_{12}H_{11}O_{22}.

The above compound contains 12 atoms of carbon atom, 11 atoms of hydrogen and 22 atoms of oxygen.

The ratio of oxygen atoms to hydrogen atoms is 22:11::2:1 and the ratio of carbon atoms to hydrogen atoms in a molecule of sugar is 12:11

An oxygen atom contains 8 protons and a carbon atoms has 6 electrons.

Hence, the correct statement is the ratio of oxygen atoms to hydrogen atoms in a molecule of sugar is 2 to 1.

Rhenium has two naturally occurring isotopes Re - 185 with a natural abundance of 37 40%, and Re - 187 with a natural abundance
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

individual isotopes

Re 185 = 139.094

Re 187 = 232.815

Explanation:Correcting the typo error for natural abundance as 37 40 as 37.40 and 62 60 as  62.60

Answer is found as follows

For Re 185 natural abundance  37.40%

  371.9087 x 37.40/100 = 139.0938538

six significant figures after rounding off = 139.094

For Re 187  natural abundance 62.60

371.9087 x 62.60/100 = 232.8148462

six significant figures after rounding off = 232.815

What are the 5 parts of an atom?
saul85 [17]
N the nucleus, there are protons and neutrons. That's two parts. 

<span>Outside the nucleus, there are electrons. That's a total of three parts and that is all that chemists discuss. Theoretical physicists talk about other sub nuclear "parts", but if you include them, the number goes way over 5. </span>

<span>The "shells", "sub-shells", "orbits", "orbitals", "probabilities" and the like are not physical parts, but only descriptions of energy</span>

belka [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

This student is wrong.

Chemical bonds are forces that hold atoms together to form a molecule or compound. These interactions are inside the molecule. Example

Ionic bond: NaCl   (sodium and chlorine).

Intermolecular forces are weaker than chemical bonds and they are forces between atoms or molecules. These interactions are among different molecules.

Example

Two molecules of water interact forming hydrogen bridges.
