The two boron atoms listed in the table are isotopes of the boron. The two carbon atoms and the two oxygen atoms are also called

isotopes. Based on the patterns in the particle compositions of these atoms, write a definition for “isotopes”

Answer:

A type of an atom which has a different number of neutrons but the same atomic number, therefore making it the same element. This atom would still have the same properties as well. (Ex: Vanadium-51 is an isotope of Vanadium that has 51 neutrons but still has 23 protons, as its atomic number is 23.)

Which theory describes the motion of and force driving earth’s plates?
swat32

The theory that describes the motion and force driving earth's plates is Plate tectonics

Explanation:

Plate tectonics states that the outer shell of the Earth is divided into plates that glide and move over the mantle which is the surface of the earth.

The mantle is the rocky inner layer above the core of the Earth.

Plate tectonics helped the geologists to explain how continents could move around the planet.

There are 9 major plate tectonics , namely North American, Pacific, Eurasian, Australian, African, Indo - Australian,Indian South American and Antarctic. These plates have been named after the land form found on them.

Calcium has a cubic closest packed structure (fcc) as a solid. Assuming that calcium has an atomic radius of 197 pm, calculate t
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

1.536 g/cm^3 is the density of solid calcium.

Explanation:

Formula used :  

\rho=\frac{Z\times M}{N_{A}\times a^{3}}

where,

\rho = density

Z = number of atom in unit cell

M = atomic mass

(N_{A}) = Avogadro's number  

a = edge length of unit cell

We have:

r = 197 pm = 197\times 10^{-12} m = 197\times 10^{-12}\times 100 cm

r=197\times 10^{-10} m

a=r\times 2\sqrt{2}

a=197\times 10^{-10} m\times 2\sqrt{2}=557.200\times 10^{-10} cm

M = 40 g/mol

Z = 4

On substituting all the given values , we will get the value of 'a'.

\rho =\frac{4\times 40 g/mol}{6.022\times 10^{23} mol^{-1}\times (557.200\times 10^{-10} cm)^{3}}

\rho =1.536 g/cm^3

1.536 g/cm^3 is the density of solid calcium.

How do we use particle theory to explain physical properties of matter??<br>thank you!!​
olchik [2.2K]
The properties of matter can best be explained using a model in which all materials are composed of tiny particles (atoms, molecules and ions). There is empty space between particles and particles are constantly moving (their speed is changed by temperature).
