The nucleus of a radioactive element does not break down and give off particles and energy?
false
True or false water is an example of a chemical element?
False. Water is a molecule made of 2 parts hydrogen one part oxygen. NOT AN ELEMENT.
Which is a true statement about the atomic nucleus. It takes up most of the volume of the atom. It contains protons neutrons and electrons. It contains most of the mass of the atom?
The first two statement are false. The other one is true. There are electrons outside the nucleus, but they are much lighter than the particles in the nucleus.
What does the pH scale measure the concentration of?
The pH scale is a Science indicator, Not a Mathmatical one :-)
True or False The central core of an atom is called a HUB?
I'm not really sure if it's called a HUB, but I do know that the central core of an atom is called the nucleus, and is made out of protons (with a positive charge) and neutrons (with no charge).
If an particle hits a gold nucleus in a head on collision the particle will not be deflected very much?
Correct, due to the massive size of the gold nucleus compared to the size of the incoming particle, the particle will not experience a large deflection in a head-on collision. This is because of the concentrated positive charge in a small space in the gold nucleus that causes a very strong Coulomb repulsion when the incoming particle gets close to it.
When two hydrogen nuclei combine to form one helium nucleus fusion has taken place true or false?
Yes it is true. In fusion reactions, two nuclei (not necessarily be hydrogen) combine to form a larger nucleus.
True or false a nucleus is an atomic particle that has no atomic charge?
Assuming the context of this question is atomic physics, the answer is "false" for two reasons: 1) the atomic nucleus is positively charged. 2) the atomic nucleus a tightly bound composite of many particles.
When two hydrogen nuclei combine to form one helium nucleus nuclear fusion has taken place true or false?
Yes it is true. In fusion reactions, two nuclei (not necessarily be hydrogen) combine to form a larger nucleus.
Equivalent weight is that weight of a substance which combines wit or displaces 1.008 parts of weight of hydrogen or 8 parts by weight of oxygen true or false?
false
A gamma ray is a very high speed particle with no charge. True or false?
It is false. A gamma ray has no charge, but it is an electromagnetic wave, not a particle.
The smaller the soil particle the coarser it will be?
false
State true or false Hydrogen is insoluble in water?
False False False FalseFalse
The strength of the electric field of a charged particle becomes greater as the distance from the particle decreases?
Yes, the strength of the electric field of a charged particle does increase as you move closer to the charged particle. This is because electric fields follow an inverse square law, meaning that the field strength is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the charged particle. As you move closer, the distance decreases, leading to an increase in the electric field strength.
Is meiosis involves one division of the nucleus and cytoplasm?
False and why
True or false the nucleus is the control center for the cell?
The statement that a nucleus is the control center for the cell is a correct statement.True, the nucleus is the control center for the cell.
True are false a nucleus is the outer part of a cell?
False, it is in the center of the cell
