Answer:

Since their family turned off the heat, it should be cold, the pipes must be freezing, and there is water in the pipes which means the water in the pipes is freezing causing it to burst.

Explanation:

In the extreme winters , the water inside pipes freeze, on freezing it's(water molecule)  density decreases and volume increases and therefore, the ice then expands and pushes the water towards the faucet, causing high pressure buildup in the pipe and after a limit the pipe burst. This is what happened to the family in Ottawa, where winters are chilly.

The mass of an object is described in what??
inessss [21]
<span>The mass of an object is measured in either grams or kilograms. Mass is best described as the amount of matter, or "stuff," in a solid, and is different from weight (which is the force of gravity on an object). Since mass is used with solids, it will be measured in grams or kilograms (rather than in something like liters, which would be used with the volume of a liquid). To measure mass, you can use a balance, for example a triple balance beam.</span>

Consider the gold isotope 197Au. How many electrons, protons, and neutrons are in a neutral 197Au atom?
tangare [24]

Answer:

The 197Au isotope has 79 protons, 79 electrons and 118 neutrons

Explanation:

Step 1: The isotope = 197Au

Step 2: Calculate neutrons, electrons and protons

197 = Number of protons + number of neutrons

Isotopes always have the same proton number ( is the same as the atomic number). For Gold (Au) is this 79.

The number of electrons is equal to the number of protons in a neutral atom. Since we have 79 protons, there are also 79 electrons.

All isotopes of Au have a different number of neutrons.

The number of neutrons = 197 -79 = 118 neutrons

The 197Au isotope has 79 protons, 79 electrons and 118 neutrons
