Answer:

Covering electrical wires in plastic guarantees that the electrons flowing through the wires will not flow through your body when the wire is touched.

Explanation:

"The purpose of insulation covering the metal part of an electrical wire is to prevent accidental contact with other conductors of electricity, which might result in an unintentional electric current through those other conductors."

A hydrogen-like ion is an ion containing only one electron. The energy of the electron in a hydrogen-like ion is given by:
kupik [55]

hydrogen-like ion is an ion containing only one electron. The energy of the electron in a hydrogen-like ion is given by:

En = −(2.18 × 10^−18J) Z^2 ( 1/n^2 )

where n is the principal quantum number and Z is the atomic number of the element. Plasma is a state of matter consisting of positive gaseous ions and electrons. In the plasma state, a mercury atom could be stripped of its 80 electrons and therefore could exist as Hg80+. Use the equation above to calculate the energy required for the last ionization step.hydrogen-like ion is an ion containing only one electron.

If the density of water is 1g/cm3 what is its specific gravity
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Specific gravity is the density of asubstance divided by the density of water. Since (at standard temperature and pressure) water has a density of 1 gram/cm3, and since all of the units cancel, specific gravity is usually very close to the same value as density(but without any units).

How much positive charge is in 0.7 kg of lithium? with each atom having 3 protons and 3 electrons. The elemental charge is 1.602
hichkok12 [17]

Explanation:

As a neutral lithium atom contains 3 protons and its elemental charge is given as 1.602 \times 10^{-19} C. Hence, we will calculate its number of moles as follows.

          Moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

                     = \frac{0.7 \times 1000 g}{7 g/mol}

                     = 100 mol

According to mole concept, there are 6.023 \times 10^{23} atoms present in 1 mole. So, in 100 mol we will calculate the number of atoms as follows.

        No. of atoms = 100 \times 6.023 \times 10^{23}

                               = 6.023 \times 10^{25} atoms

Since, it is given that charge on 1 atom is as follows.

                     3 \times 1.602 \times 10^{-19}C

                    = 4.806 \times 10^{-19}C

Therefore, charge present on 6.023 \times 10^{25} atoms will be calculated as follows.

    6.023 \times 10^{25} atoms \times 4.806 \times 10^{-19} C

            28.95 \times 10^{6}C

Thus, we can conclude that a positive charge of 28.95 \times 10^{6}C is in 0.7 kg of lithium.
