When there are too many neutrons compared to the number of protons, the atomic nucleus is

Physics

Darina [25.2K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

99.9% sure it B. Unstable but if that’s wrong try A.stable

Explanation:

Too many protons (or too few neutrons) in the nucleus result in an imbalance between forces, which leads to nuclear instability.

if a nucleus is unstable due to too many neutrons, it will undergo Beta decay - this means they become stable by emitting a beta particle.

The diameter of an atom is 1.1×10−10m and the diameter of its nucleus is 1.0×10−14m. Part A What percent of the atom's volume is
77julia77 [94]

To solve this problem we will use the basic concept given by the Volume of a sphere with which the atom approaches. The fraction in percentage terms would be given by the division of the total volume of the nucleus by that of the volume of the atom, that is,

\% Percent = \frac{V_{nucleus}}{V_{atom}}*100

\% Percent = \frac{4/3 \pi (d_{nucleus}/2)^3}{4/3 \pi (d_{atom}/2)^3}*100

\% Percent = \frac{(d_{nucleus}/2)^3}{ (d_{atom}/2)^3}*100

\% Percent =\frac{(1.0*10^{-14}/2)^3}{ (1.1*10^{-10}/2)^3}*100

\% Percent = 7.51*10^{-13}*100

\% Percent = 7.51*10^{-11}\%

Therefore the percent of the atom's volume is occupied by mass is 7.51*10^{-11}\%

Answer: The correct statements are:

  • The atoms are very attracted to one another.
  • The atoms are held tightly together.

Explanation:

Solid state: In this state, the molecules are closely packed and cannot move freely from one place to another that means no space between them and the intermolecular force of attraction between the molecules are strong.

In solid substance, the particles are very close to each other due to this the intermolecular forces of attraction are strongest.

The key point about solid are:

  • The atoms are very attracted to one another.
  • The atoms are not moving freely.
  • It will not spread out evenly to fill any container.
  • The atoms are held tightly together.
  • The forces of attraction are strong to bring molecules together.
  • The atoms are close and in fixed positions.
