Answer:

its c I think C)

The reason for this is due to the phenomenon called "Charging by Induction". What that means is that when something with a charge, for example a negative charge, is brought near an uncharged one, it induces the opposite charge onto it (positive in this case) and therefore since opposites attract, it attracts it.

The reason for this is that since, just like a positive magnet rejects and pushed away like charges, the electrons hold a negative charge, they push away any electrons that may be in the neutrally charged item causing only protons to be left, thus creating an oppositely charged object. Or vice versa.

So whatever charge the object has, it induces the opposite charge into the uncharged object, causing the charges to move only in the uncharged one.

Which scientist explained why binary stars change colors

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

This is because of scintillation ("Twinkling") as the light passes through the atmosphere of the Earth. As the air moves in and out, the starlight is refracted, often different colors in different directions. Because of this "chromatic abberation," stars can appear to change colors when they are twinkling strongly.

Depression what are the effects to the brain

oksian1 [2.3K]

Depression can affect a person psychologically, it also has the potential to affect physical structures in the brain. These physical changes range from inflammation and oxygen restriction, to actual shrinking. Depression can impact the central control center of nervous system. Depression can cause amygdala to enlarge. This is a part of the brain associated with emotional responses. When amygdala becomes larger and more active, it causes sleep disturbances, changes in activity levels, and changes in other hormones.

A compound containing Na, C, and O is found to have 1.06 mol Na, 0.528 mol C, and 1.59 mol O. What is the empirical formula of t

Effectus [21]

Given :

Moles of Na : 1.06

Moles of C : 0.528

Moles of O : 1.59

To Find :

The empirical formula of the compound.

Solution :

Dividing moles of each atom with the smallest one i.e 0.528 .

So,

Na : 1.06/0.528 = 2.007 ≈ 2

C : 0.528/0.528 = 1

O : 1.59/0.528 = 3.011 ≈ 3

Rounding all them to nearest integer, we will get the number of each atom in the empirical formula.

So, empirical formula is $Na_2CO_3$ .

Hence, this is the required solution.

The mass of magnesium, which has a density of 1.74 g/cm is 504.6 g.

Mass is the quantity of matter. Mass can be calculated by multiplying density by volume.

Magnesium is a chemical element with the atomic number 12. It is needed in the body in trace amounts. It can cause malnutrition in the body.

Mass = Density x volume

We know the density and the volume of magnesium.

Density = 1.74

Volume = 290

Density x volume

Putting the value in the equation

1.74 x 290 = 504.6 g

Thus, the mass of magnesium is 504.6 g.

true or false an element's reactivity is determined by the number of protons found in an atom of the element

andreyandreev [35.5K]

False... The number of electrons in the outer shell of the atom of the element determines it's reactivity. <span />
