tangare [24]3 years ago

Answer:

-Atoms are neutral; they contain the same number of protons as electrons. By definition, an ion is an electrically charged particle produced by either removing electrons from a neutral atom to give a positive ion or adding electrons to a neutral atom to give a negative ion.

-An atom has an equal number of protons and electrons. An ion has an imbalance between the number of protons and electrons.

-An atom has no electrical charge. Ions have an electrical charge because they have an imbalance of protons and electrons.

Write 10,847,100 in Scientific Notation with 4 significant figures.
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The number 10,847,100 in Scientific Notation is 1.0847x10^{7}

Explanation:

Scientific notation is an easy form to write long numbers and it is commonly used in the scientific field. To write a long number in a shorter way it is necessary to 'move' the decimal point to the left the number of positions that are necessary until you get a unit. Then you write the number and multiplied it by 10 raised to the number of positions you moved the decimal point. In this case, it is necessary to move the decimal point 7 positions so, we multiply the number by 10 raised to 7.

two drops of mercury on a flat surface are rolled towards each other. When they make contact with each other they fuse to form o
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:1) It is due to large cohesive force acting between the molecules of mercury that the droplets of mercury when brought in contact pulled together to form a bigger drop in order to make potential energy minimum. The temperature of this bigger drop increases since the total surface area decreases.  

2) A spherical shape has the minimum surface area to volume ratio of all geometric forms. When two drops of a liquid are brought in contact, the cohesive forces between their molecules coalesce the drops into a single larger drop. This is because, the volume of the liquid remaining the same, the surface area of the resulting single drop is less than the combined surface area of the smaller drops. The resulting decrease in surface energy is released into the environment as heat.
