What makes a charged object attract an uncharged object?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ratling [72]3 years ago
7 0

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.

The atomic symbol Superscript 206 subscript 82 upper P b. represents lead-206 (Pb-206), an isotope that has 82 protons and 124 n
Serggg [28]

Answer:

\left \{ {{y=206} \atop {x=82}}Pb \right.

Explanation:

isotopes are various forms of same elements with different atomic number but different mass number.

Radioactivity is the emission of rays or particles from an atom to produce a new nuclei. There are various forms of radioactive emissions which are

  • Alpha particle emission  \left \{ {{y=4} \atop {x=2}}He \right.
  • Beta particle emission    \left \{ {{y=0} \atop {x=-1}}e \right.
  • gamma radiation             \left \{ {{y=0} \atop {x=0}}γ \right.

in the problem the product formed after radiation was Pb-206. isotopes of lead include Pb-204, Pb-206, Pb-207, Pb-208. they all have atomic number 82. which means the radiation cannot be ∝ or β since both radiations will alter the atomic number of the parent nucleus.

Only gamma radiation with \left \{ {{y=0} \atop {x=0}}γ \right. will produce a Pb-206 of atomic number 82 and mass number 206 , since gamma ray have 0 mass and has 0 atomic number.equation is shown below

\left \{ {{y=206} \atop {x=82}}Pb\right ⇒ \left \{ {{y=206} \atop {x=82}}Pb\right +  \left \{ {{y=0} \atop {x=0}}γ\right.

Thus the atomic symbol is \left \{ {{y=206} \atop {x=82}}Pb\right

If an atom with a mass number of 27 has 14 neutrons,it is an isotope of which element​
kkurt [141]

Answer:

the number of neutrons in above isotope = A - Z = 27 - 13 = 14. Note: The molar mass of aluminium, which is average of atomic masses of all isotopes = 26.981538 g/mol, since 13Al27 is the major isotope.
