Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of phosphorus is equal to the atomic number of phosphorus, which is 15. If an atom of phosphorus has 17 neutrons, then the mass number would be 15 protons + 17 neutrons = 32. Thus, the correct answer choice here is B.

B. Argon's vibrational energy is not excited by infrared radiation.

Explanation:

The property of carbon dioxide to get excited by infrared electromagnetic radiation is what qualifies it as a greenhouse gas. When infrared from the earth's surface is reflecting back to space, some of the radiation is absorbed and remitted by the carbon-dioxide molecules in the atmosphere. This causes a phenomenon called greenhouse effect that causes the atmosphere to be relatively warmer. The more the carbon dioxide molecules the more the greenhouse effect.

A perfect cube of aluminum metal was found to weigh 20.00 g. The density of aluminum is 2.7 g/ml. What are the dimensions of the
denis23 [38]

Answer:

             Height  = 1.9493 cm

             Width =  1.9493 cm

             Depth  =  1.9493 cm

Solution:

Data Given:

                  Mass  =  20 g

                  Density  =  2.7 g/mL

Step 1: Calculate the Volume,

As,

                                        Density  =  Mass ÷ Volume

Or,

                                        Volume  =  Mass ÷ Density

Putting values,

                                        Volume  =  20 g ÷ 2.7 g/mL

                                        Volume  =  7.407 mL or 7.407 cm³

Step 2: Calculate Dimensions of the Cube:

As we know,

                                        Volume  =  length × width × depth

So, we will take the cube root of 7.407 cm³ which is 1.9493 cm.

Hence,

                                        Volume  =  1.9493 cm × 1.9493 cm × 1.9493 cm

                                        Volume  =  7.407 cm³
