The number of electrons in an atom of an element being always the same

as the number of protons in its nucleus is False.

<h3>What is an Electron?</h3>

This is a sub-atomic particle which is negatively charged and is usually

involved in chemical reactions.

Electropositive elements donates electrons while electronegative

elements accepts electrons during chemical reactions which is why the

number of proton and electron aren't always the same.

What is the atomic mass of an atom that has 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons? A) 6 B) 8 C) + 1 D) 12 E) 18
Oksana_A [137]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Atomic mass of an atom is defined as the sum of number of neutrons and number of protons that are present in an atom. It is represented as 'A'.

Atomic number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

We are given:

Number of protons = 6

Number of neutrons = 6

Number of electrons = 6

Atomic mass = 6 + 6 = 12

Hence, the correct answer is Option D.

To measure the speed of a car, we use miles per hour (miles/hour or mi/h or mph). To measure the rate of a reaction we use molar
arsen [322]

Answer:

Part A: 47.8 mi/h

Part B: 0.072 M/s

Part C: 0.144 M/s

Explanation:

Part A

The average speed or velocity (V) is the variation of the space divided by the variation of the time:

V = (241 - 2)/(8 -3)

V = 47.8 mi/h

Part B

As Part A, the average rate (r) of formation of I2 is the variation of the concentration divided by the variation of time:

r = (1.83 - 1.11)/(15 - 5)

r = 0.072 M/s

Part C

The rates of the substances are proportional of their number of moles (n) which are their coefficient, so:

rI2/nI2 = rHCl/nHCl

0.072/1 = rHCl/2

rHCl = 2*0.072

rHCl = 0.144 M/s

Which climate is most likely found in a high pressure belt
Mice21 [21]

Answer:subtropical highs. ... Near the poles the pressure is high and it is known as the polar high. These pressure belts are not permanent in nature

Explanation: The horse latitudes are subtropical regions known for calm winds and little precipitation. ... Unable to sail and resupply due to lack of wind, crews often ran out of drinking water. To conserve scarce water, sailors on these ships would sometimes throw the horses they were transporting overboard.
