50 POINTS 10 FOR EACH QUESTION WILL MARK BRAINLIEST

Question 1
Which statement best describes how mass is distributed throughout the atom?

Question 1 options:

Electrons have very little mass, so most of the mass is located in the nucleus.

Each part of the atom has about the same mass.


The mass of the atom is equally distributed throughout the atom.


The mass of the atom is all in the nucleus, and the electrons have zero mass.

Question 2
Which of the following statements most accurately describes the number of subatomic particles to account for the overall charge of an aluminum atom?

Question 2 options:

Aluminum has 13 protons and 13 neutrons and is therefore neutral.


Aluminum has 13 protons and 14 neutrons, so it has 27 electrons and the overall charge is zero.


Aluminum has 13 protons and 13 electrons and is therefore neutral.


Aluminum has 13 protons and 16 electrons, so it has an overall charge of +3.

Question 4 (0.1 points) Question 4 Saved
The sun produces tremendous amounts of energy. Some of that energy reaches Earth and affects Earth’s systems. Which statement explains how the sun produces this energy?

Question 4 options:

The sun produces energy through combustion reactions through out it.


The sun produces energy through fusion reactions in its core.


The sun produces energy through convection cells on its surface.


The sun produces energy through radioactive decay in its core

Question 5 (0.1 points) Question 5 Unsaved

Elemental Composition


Mass


Volume


Temperature

Question 6

B) What questions do you have about atoms?

C) What questions do you have about radioactivity?

Respuesta :

Q1) Electrons have very little mass, so most of the mass is located in the nucleus.
--- electrons have a mass of 1/10000000000000000000

Q2) Aluminium has 13 protons and 13 electrons so therefore is neutral
--- however when aluminium becomes an ion it loses 3 electrons to gain a full outer shell leaving behind only 10 electrons with a charge of 3+

Q4) The sun produces energy through fusion reactions in its core
---this reaction is called nuclear fusion and basically converts Hydrogen atoms into Helium. The product in the sun's core is a massive amount of energy that gets released and radiates towards the surface of the sun and then outwards to the Earth.

Q5) Mass
---It depends... Although a higher-mass strain may contain more material, it will burn through itself faster due to higher core temperatures... Which are causes by gravitational forces. Compared to the sun which will spend 10bill years to die, a star 10 times as massive will only stick around for 20 Mill years

Q6) A) COMPARE AND CONTRAST THE MAIN PARTS OF AN ATOM
An atom if made up of a central nucleus, which contains protons and neutrons. While the protons are positively charged, the neutrons have no charge. This is why the neutrons are positively charged - because protons take over the charge of neutrons, which have no charge. The nucleus is surrounded by shells. These shells contain electrons which orbit the nucleus, a bit like how the Earth orbits the Sun. These electrons have a negative charge. Usually in atoms, there is an equal amount of protons and electrons, however if there are more protons than electrons, the atom will have an overall charge of positive. But if an atom contains more electrons than protons, the overall charge will be negative.
Aside from this, the overall charge on most atoms are neutral due to the same number of protons and electrons.
