Answer:

Fluorine

Explanation:

Fluorine has an atomic number of 9

Iron's is 26

Phosphorus = 15

Potassium = 19

Fluorine has the smallest number of protons, and as it is an atom, the number of protons = the number of electrons. As it has less electrons, it only has 2 shells, whereas all the other elements here have 3+ shells. This means it will have a smaller atomic radius than them.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)

According to the following balanced equation, 2 formula units of Iron (III) Oxide (Fe2O3) can be formed by reacting 4 atoms of i
-Dominant- [34]
You have to use Avogadro's number (6.02x10^23 molecules/mole) to find the number of moles each reactant starts off with.
moles of Fe and O₂:
12 atoms/(6.02x10^23 atoms/mole)=1.99x10^-23 mol Fe
6 molecules/(6.02x10^23 molecules/mole)=9.967x10^-24 mol <span>O₂
</span>Then you find the limiting reagent by finding how much product each given amount of reactant can make.  Which ever one produces the least amount of product is the limiting reagent.
amount of Fe₂O₃ produced:
<span>(1.99x10^-23 mol Fe)x(2mol/4mol)= 9.967x10^-24mol Fe</span>₂O₃<span> 
</span>(9.967x10^-24 mol O₂)x(2mol/3mol)= 6.645x10^-24 mol Fe₂O₃<span> 
</span>since oxygen produces the leas amount of product, oxygen is the limiting reagent.  since we know that oxygen is the limiting reagent we can use the amount of product formed with oxygen to find the amount of iron used.
6.645x10^-24 mol Fe₂O₃x(4mol/2mol)=1.329x10^-23 mol Fe consumed
<span> find the amount left over by subtracting the original amount of Fe by the amount consumed in the reaction.
</span>1.993x10^-23-1.329x10^-23= 6.645x10^-23mol Fe left
 find the number of atoms by multiplying that by Avogadro's number.
<span>(6.645x10^-23mol)x(6.02x10^23 atoms/mol)=4 atoms
</span>therefore 4 atoms of Fe will be left over after the reaction happens.

I hope this helps.

How are nitrogen-14 and nitrogen-15 same and different?
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Since different isotopes of an element have different numbers of neutrons (but always the same number of protons) they have different mass numbers. Nitrogen-14 and nitrogen-15 are both stable isotopes of nitrogen. However, the other 5 isotopes are all unstable.

Two proteins interact to form a multimeric complex. When one of the proteins is mutated, there is a substantial loss of function
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

<h2>4. dominant negative</h2>

Explanation:

Mutation is the process in which sudden changes take place within the sequence of amino acids that causes different type of problems. On the basis of nature and conditions mutation can be classified as dominant negative, neomorphic and some others types. Dominant mutation is also called as antimorphic mutation and changes the functions of the  molecules that are proteins.
