A subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom. It carries a positive electric charge. This desribes which of the following?
electron |
|
atom |
|
proton |
|
neutron |
A proton is a subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom. It carries a positive electric charge.
Elements in the same group in the Periodic Table of the Elements have the same:
number of electrons |
|
number of atomic mass units |
|
number of electrons in their outer electron shell |
|
number of electron shells |
The columns of the Periodic Table are called groups and all elements in a group have the same number of electrons in their outer electron shell. The group that an element occupies generally determines its chemical properties as the number of outer shell electrons establishes the way it reacts with other elements to form molecules. So, because each element has the same number of electrons in its outer shell, each has similar reactivity.
Generally, an atom has __________ negative electrons orbiting the nucleus as it does positive protons inside.
fewer |
|
equal numbers of |
|
double the number of |
|
more |
An electron is a subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. Generally, an atom has the same number of negative electrons orbiting the nucleus as it does positive protons inside.
A human heart consists of how many chambers?

2 |
|
1 |
|
4 |
The heart is the organ that drives the circulatory system. In humans, it consists of four chambers with two that collect blood called atria and two that pump blood called ventricles. The heart's valves prevent blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart.
"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?
first |
|
third |
|
fourth |
|
second |
Newton's third law of motion states that For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When an object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts a force of equal magnitude in the opposite direction on the first object.
