Answer:

Neutral atoms have the same number of electrons and protons. Atoms of an element that contain different numbers of neutrons are called isotopes. Each isotope of a given element has the same atomic number but a different mass number (A), which is the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons.

Explanation:

Answer:

An isotope differs from a neutral atom as it has more neutrons when compared to a neutral one. They are similar as both have equal amounts of protons and electrons.

Can one mole of peas fit inside your house? List the materials and steps of an experiment that answers the
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

No, one mole of peas do not fit inside a house because one mole is equals to 6.022 × 10²³ units which is a very large value. mole only use for atoms, ions and molecules etc due to very small size but mole is not used for big sized materials such as peas and other vegetables etc. So that's why we can conclude that one mole of peas did not fit inside a house.

Is cobalt 60 more dangerous than bananas ( potassium 40) and why ?
maxonik [38]

Answer:

To the best of my knowledge, it is because of the amount of gamma rays is given off.

Explanation:

While both are isotopes, Potassium 40 gives off fewer gamma rays compared to Cobalt 60. Potassium 40 isn't really harmful to humans, but Cobalt 60 (I believe) is used in chemotherapy.

Calculate number of CO2 molecules in 0.250 mol of co2
Anna11 [10]
Carbon's molar mass is 12gm

Oxygen's molar mass is 16gm

So CO2 molar mass is 44gm

Hence 1mol of CO2 contains 44gm
There 1/4mol of CO2 contains 44/4=11gm.

Hope it helps

Catalase is an enzyme that speeds up the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide in cells. During this reaction oxygen is given off. A sc
Softa [21]

Answer:

The correct option is A

Explanation:

An independent variable is <u>a variable that is intentionally altered (directly or indirectly) and is not dependent on another variable</u> in the course of an experiment. Unlike the independent variable, the dependent variable depends or is presumed to depend on the altered independent variables.

From the explanation above, it can be deduced that the concentration of the catalase is the independent variable as it was intentionally altered (by using different concentrations) in the course of the experiment. The amount of oxygen given off is the dependent variable here
