An element with a number of neutrons different from its normal number is called a what?

It is called an isotope.


Why is bromine unusual?

Bromine is unusual because it is the only non-metallic element that is liquid at room temperature. It is also the only non-metal that exists in a liquid form, while most other non-metals are gases under normal conditions. Bromine also has a strong, unpleasant odor and is highly reactive.


What is a normal atom?

Its a normal atom if it have same protons, neutrons, and electrons to the one of the periodic table. If it have more or less neutrons than normal then its an isotope. If it have more protons than electrons then its a positive ion. If it have more electrons than protons then its a negative ion. An ion its a charged atom, more or less electrons than " normal " Isotopes its an atoms with the same number of protons, but different number of neutrons.


What are the 3 different types of rock movement in earthquakes?

The three different types of rock movement in earthquakes are normal (extensional) faulting, reverse (compressional) faulting, and strike-slip (lateral) faulting. Normal faulting occurs when rocks are pulled apart, reverse faulting involves rocks being pushed together, and strike-slip faulting involves horizontal movement along a fault line.


Why do igneous rocks have either have fined or coarsed grained?

The texture is mostly dependent on the amount of time the magma or lava had to crystallize into a solid rock. Volcanic rock is formed from quickly cooling lava (also called extrusive igneous rock), and will have a fine-grained texture. Plutonic rock (also called intrusive igneous rock) is formed from slow cooling magma, and will exhibit visible crystals.

Why would a hip replacement made of nanocrystalline metal last longer than one made of normal metals?

It has more particles with more bonds, meaning it makes it more sturdy and stronger.


What are Sith lightsabres made from?

they are made from the same thing as normal lightsabers, maybe different hilts and such but they have different crystals


Is amorphous urate normal in urine?

Amorphous urates are normal in urine. There are several types of amorphous crystals, each composed of different elements and forming in specific urine conditions. Amorphous crystals are misidentified as bacteria.


What is the normal range of crystals in urine?

0-5


Is magnetic field different for different metals?

Yes, magnetic properties can vary among different metals due to variations in their atomic structure and electron configurations. Some metals are naturally magnetic (ferromagnetic), while others are not or are only weakly magnetic. For example, iron, nickel, and cobalt are highly magnetic, while metals like copper and aluminum are not magnetic under normal conditions.


What is Dissimilar metals?

Dissimilar metals refer to metals that have different compositions and properties. When two dissimilar metals come into contact in the presence of an electrolyte, such as water, it can lead to a process called galvanic corrosion, where one metal corrodes faster than normal. This can weaken the metals, leading to potential structural issues.


Is the ring around the moon normal?

It is normal refraction of the moonlight in ice crystals which are in high layers of clouds.


What crystals are in a white dwarf star?

There are not crystals in the normal sense. A white dwarf is made of electron degenerate matter, an exotic state of matter not found on Earth.


What metals make up the earths atmosphere?

Metals are not a part of earth's atmosphere. All metals are solid under normal conditions, except for mercury, which is a liquid.


What normal crystal do cystine crystals resemble?

Cystine crystals resemble hexagonal crystals, similar to those of quartz or snowflakes. They usually appear as colorless, six-sided prisms or tablets under a microscope.


What is the normal phasefor titanium?

Like all metals (except one: Mercury) Titanium is solid(and one of the 'hardest' metals)


Why are alloys created?

Alloys are more durable than normal metals, this is because its lots of metals together. Its also cheaper to produce than some other metals.
