<h3>Answer;</h3>

Electrons and neutrons are both sub atomic particles in a atom

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

Atom is the smallest particle of an element that can take part of chemical reaction.
Atoms are made up of sub-atomic particles namely; neutrons, electrons and protons. Electrons are negatively particles that are found in the energy levels of an atom. Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom, protons are positively charged while neutrons have no charge.
Protons and neutrons have almost equal mass that is more than 2000 times that of electrons. That is why nucleus of an atom accounts for most masses of an atom.

Protons and neutrons have almost the same mass and are both located in the nucleus of the atom. Protons are charged particles. Neutrons are neutral particles. ... The positive charge of the protons in the nucleus is balanced by the negative charge of the electrons.

Answer:

The weight of Earth's atmosphere exert is $516.6\times10^{17}\ N$

Explanation:

Given that,

Average pressure $P=1.01\times10^{5}\ Pa$

Radius of earth $R_{E}=6.38\times10^{6}\ m$

Pressure :

Pressure is equal to the force upon area.

We need to calculate the weight of earth's atmosphere

Using formula of pressure

$P=\dfrac{F}{A}$

$F=PA$

$F=P\times 4\pi\times R_{E}^2$

Where, P = pressure

A = area

Put the value into the formula

$F=1.01\times10^{5}\times4\times\pi\times(6.38\times10^{6})^2$

$F=516.6\times10^{17}\ N$

Hence, The weight of Earth's atmosphere exert is $516.6\times10^{17}\ N$

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

This type of spectrum is called line emission spectrum . Because it consists of lines . It is emission spectrum because it is due to emission of radiation from a source .

b ) The wavelength of a photon is inversely proportional to its energy . Photon due to transition between n = 1 and n = 3 will have higher energy than

that due to transition between n = 2 and n = 5 . So the later photon ( B) will have greater wavelength or photon due to transition between n = 2 and n = 5 will have greater wavelength .

The temperature of the liquid in a container decreases as the liquid evaporates. Use kinetic theory to explain why.

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Temperature decreases because the number of collision of the molecules decreases as they escape or evaporate. Molecules are in constant motion. Increase in temperature leads to increase in average kinetic energy of the molecules.
