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.

The solubility of o2 at 20c is 1.38 x10^-3. the partial presure of o2 in the air at sea level is 0.27 atm. using henery;s law, c
netineya [11]

<u>Answer:</u> The solubility of oxygen at 682 torr is 4.58\times 10^{-3}M

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

C_{A}=K_H\times p_{A}

Or,

\frac{C_{1}}{C_{2}}=\frac{p_{1}}{p_2}

where,

C_1\text{ and }p_1 are the initial concentration and partial pressure of oxygen gas

C_2\text{ and }p_2 are the final concentration and partial pressure of oxygen gas

We are given:

Conversion factor used:  1 atm = 760 torr

C_1=1.38\times 10^{-3}M\\p_1=0.27atm\\C_2=?\\p_2=682torr=0.897atm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{1.38\times 10^{-3}}{C_2}=\frac{0.27atm}{0.897atm}\\\\C_2=\frac{1.38\times 10^{-3}\times 0.897atm}{0.27atm}=4.58\times 10^{-3}M

Hence, the solubility of oxygen gas at 628 torr is 4.58\times 10^{-3}M

Two substances, A and Z, are to be identified. Substance A can not be broken down by a chemical change. Substance Z can be broke
Kisachek [45]

Answer;

(3) Substance A is an element and substance Z is a compound.

Explanation;

-A compound is a substance formed when two or more chemical elements are chemically bonded together, such as water, carbon dioxide, methane, etc while an element is a pure chemical substance made of same type of atoms, such includes, oxygen, potassium, hydrogen, carbon, etc.

- Compounds can be broken down or decomposed into simpler substances: elements cannot be broken down chemically into simpler substances .

Nuclear reactions in a reactor produce a lot of thermal
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Heat flows from the reactor to the water

Explanation:

The thermal energy mentioned in the description is another way to say heat. The energy that is produced by the nuclear reactions leaves the reactor and enters the water, warming it.

The passage does <em>not </em>say that heat flows in the form of electricity, but rather that the turbines turned by the steam produce electricity.

The passage does <em>not </em>say that the steam produces the heat, but rather that the boiling of the water (caused by the heat) produces steam.
