Characteristics of an atom

Chemistry
1 answer:
Doss [256]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

It is composed of protons, which have a positive charge, and neutrons, which have no charge. Protons, neutrons, and the electrons surrounding them are long-lived particles present in all ordinary, naturally occurring atoms. Other subatomic particles may be found in association with these three types of particles.

Explanation:

Atoms consist of three basic particles: protons, electrons, and neutrons. The nucleus (center) of the atom contains the protons (positively charged) and the neutrons (no charge). The outermost regions of the atom are called electron shells and contain the electrons (negatively charged).

Write 1 paragraph. Why is earth considered a closed system ?
Paul [167]

Answer:

Explanation:

Earth is considered a closed system because only energy, not matter, is exchanged. A closed system like Earth can be easily represented by a sealed jar. When the lid is sealed, matter like air or water can neither enter nor exit the jar. If you placed that same jar in a 100-degree oven, the air inside the jar would eventually increase in temperature to 100 degrees, representing an exchange of energy known as heat.

Two springs have different spring constants. How could you identify the spring with the greater spring constant value?
Darya [45]
The spring constant determines how far the spring will stretch for a given applied force: <span>F=kx→k=<span>Fx</span></span><span>. If we place the same mass on the two springs, which means we have placed the same force on them, the one that stretches </span>least<span> has the largest spring constant.
Hope this helps!

In an aqueous solution of lithium chloride LiCl, what ions or molecules are present in solution
hichkok12 [17]
In an aqueous solution of lithium chloride (LiCl), the ions present in solution are lithium cations (Li+) and chloride anions (Cl-), and the water molecules (H2O). 

Lithium chloride is an ionic salt, and therefore, fully dissociates or ionizes upon dissolution in water. From the chemical formula of lithium chloride, we can say that 1 lithium ion (positively-charged) only needs 1 chloride ion (negatively charged) to form the salt. Thus, upon dissociation of 1 molecule of LiCl, only 1 lithium ion, and 1 chloride ion form. 

Water is a molecule formed by covalent bonds and <u>generally</u>, does not dissociate to form ions. However, if we consider the very minor contribution of the dissociation of water, hydroxide (OH-) ions and hydronium (H3O+) ions will also be present. However for water, very few molecules, only 1 in 550 million, are dissociated at any given time. Thus, we can consider the presence of the OH- and H3O+ ions to be negligible and just identify the molecular undissociated form of water to be present.

Which is true about the dissolving process in water?
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.Water molecules move throughout the solute

Explanation:

The basic standard for solute disintegration in a specific dissolvable is "like breaks up like". On account of water, a solute will disintegrate if it is polar. This is on the grounds that water is a polar dis-solvable. A polar substance is one which has particles that have a net charge on them. This net charge produces powers of fascination.

At the point when a polar solute is added to water, the water atoms are pulled in to the solute particles and they join to them. In the wake of appending to the water atoms, the solute particles are scattered all through the water. Accordingly, the appropriate response is particles or particles of a solute spread all through the water atoms.
