Answer:

Protons = 17 Neutrons = 18 Electrons = 17

Explanation:

The number of protons and electrons are the the same number as the atomic number.

To get the number of neutrons, subtract the number of protons from the mass number.

35-17=18

Answer:

Protons: 17

Neutrons: 18

Electrons: 17

Explanation:

To find the number of protons, you simply have to find the atomic number of the element.

To find the number of protons you have to subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass

To find electrons to add or subtract the charge that the element has. (In this case, it has no charge)

Explain how, the removal of thermal energy (heat) from matter affects its particles.

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

When a substance is heated, it gains thermal energy. Therefore, its particles move faster and its temperature rises. When a substance is cooled, it loses thermal energy, which causes its particles to move more slowly and its temperature to drop.

1. An electric power plant uses energy from burning coal to generate steam at 450 °C. The plant is cooled by 20 °C water

kap26 [50]

Answer:

Explanation:

Efficiency of the electric power plant is $e=1-\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}$

Here Temperature of hot source $T_{1} = 450^{o}C=450+273=723 K$

and Temperature of sink $T_{1} = 20^{o}C=20+273=293 K$

Hence the efficiency is $e=1-\frac{293}{723}=0.5947=59.47%$

Now another formula for thermal efficiency Is

$e_{therm}=\frac{Q_{1}-Q_{2}}{Q_{1}}=\frac{W}{Q_{1}}$

Here QI is the of heat taken from source 100 MJ ; Q2 of heat transferred to the sink (river) to be found

W is the of work done and W = QI -Q2

Hence From $e_{therm}=\frac{Q_{1}-Q_{2}}{Q_{1}}=\frac{W}{Q_{1}}$

$W=e(Q_{1})=(0.5947)(100)=59.47MJ$

Hence the of heat transferred to the river Is $Q_{2} -W = (100 -59.47=40.53$

Blocks on the periodic table will not list a(n):

Elis [28]

Blocks on the periodic table will not list a mass number of elements in this scenario.

<h3>What is Periodic table?</h3>

This table comprises of elements in order of their atomic number which determines their chemical properties.

It contains the atomic number but however doesn't contain the mass number of the elements.

Can someone help with this please?

Aleks04 [339]

I think the answer would be yes. if my math is correct 84,596 divided by 29 equals 2,917 sickles. 2,917 sickles is equal to 172 galleon. therefore he would have enough to buy the 70 galleon broomstick. hopefully i did this right and it helped!

Passing an electric current through a sample of water (H2O) can cause the water to decompose into hydrogen gas (H2) and oxygen g

Setler [38]

The balanced chemical reaction is:

<span>2H2O= 2H2 + O2
</span>
We are given the amount of oxygen to be produced in the reaction. The starting point for the calculations will be this amount.

50 g ( 1 mol O2 / 32 g O2 ) ( 2 mol H2O / 1 mol O2 ) ( 18.01 g H2O / 1 mol H2O) = 56.28 g of H2O is needed.

Therefore, the correct answer is the last option.
