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.

Car wax mostly contains beeswax and carnauba wax. These large hydrocarbons are ideal to use because they _____ water.
hichkok12 [17]
These waxes are highly hydrophobic (repellant) of water, so the correct answer would be D) repel.

The wax coating put on the car creates a water repellant sheila that causes the water to bead up on the surface of the wax, rather than directly impacting the paint and surface of the body of the car. This prolongs the life and quality of the appearance of the car.

Ap sublevel has 3 electrons. How should they be arranged
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

C.)One electron in each p orbital

Explanation:

In a P-sublevel with 3 electrons, they should be arranged with one electron going into each p-orbitals.

This is in accordance with the Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity.

The rule states that "electrons go into degenerate orbitals or sub-levels(p,d and f) singly before paring up".

Since the p-orbital is 3-fold degenerate with a capacity to accommodate a maximum number of 6 electrons, given 3 electrons, they will follow the Hund's rule in order to fill the orbitals.

So one electron will go in each p - orbitals easily.

Which mineral leaves a green-black powder when rubbed against an unglazed porcelain plate
solong [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

Pyrite leaves behind a green-black streak when it is rubbed against an unglazed porcelain plate as a part of the streak test process.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Different minerals produce different coloured streaks when rubbed against a white ceramic or porcelain streak plate. This streak test is done to identify the mineral and distinguish the same from other minerals that look similar in colour and texture.

It must be ensured that the test is done on clean and fresh specimens of the mineral and that there must be no contaminants. Pyrite specimens are usually brass-yellow colour but it leaves a green-black streak when the streak test is done.
