PLEAS HELP. A museum is creating an exhibit about atoms.Which type of exhibit would best explain what atoms are.

A:put an atom on a poster in the exhibit C:Display a large three dimensional -
model of an atom.
B:use a life size drawing of an atom d:set up a microscope so that visitors-
can view atoms

Answers


A: put an atom on a poster in the exhibit
     Good luck.  The poster itself is made of trillions of trillions of trillions
     of atoms.  You could not see the extra one any easier than you could
     see the ones that are already there, and even if you could, it would be
     lost in the crowd.
 
B: use a life size drawing of an atom
     Good luck.  Nobody has ever seen an atom.  Atoms are too small
     to see.  That's a big part of the reason that nobody knew they exist
     until less than 200 years ago.

D: set up a microscope so that visitors can view atoms
     Good luck.  Atoms are way too small to see with a microscope.

C: Display a large three dimensional model of an atom.
    
Finally !  A suggestion that makes sense.
     If something is too big or too small to see, show a model of it
         that's just the right size to see.

Which of the following is an important property of stars, because it provides some information about the temperature of a star? Group of answer choices The shape of the star The distance to the star The star's color The star's name

Answers

The star'scolor is an important property of stars because it provides some information about the temperature of a star. The correct option is C.

What does color of star indicates?

A star'shue depends on its temperature; cooler stars seem red, while hotter stars appear blue or white.

This is due to the fact that although stars emitlight over the full spectrum, the predominant hue in the light that we perceive is the color that corresponds to the star's temperature.

The other stated characteristics, such as a star's name, distance from the star, and shape, have no direct bearing on a star's temperature.

However, these characteristics can also provide crucialdetails about the star, such as its size, brightness, and location in the sky.

Thus, the correct option is C.

The red sphere represents a proton. What is the atomic number of this atom

Answers

The atomic number is the number of protons of the atom.

So, just count the number of red spheres (protons) and that is the atomic number of the atom.

The protons are in the nucleus of the atom. Every single element is formed by a representative number of protons (atomic number).

For example, every hydrogen atom has one proton and its atomic number is one.

Every helium atom has two protons and its atomic number is two.

And so on. This permits you to order the elements in the periodic table in increasing atomic number.

There are no two elements with the same number of protons (atomic number) and all the atoms of a same element have the same number of protons.

The atom is apparently too small for us to see,
so we can't identify it.

What type of change occurs when ice absorbs energy and melts? a. change in weight
b. change in mass
c. endothermic change
d. exothermic change

Answers

The answer is C.endothermic change.

♡♡Hope I helped!!! :)♡♡
endothermic change because there is no change in weight or mass. It is not exothermic because exothermic change  is a chemical or physical change that releases heat.

Jose wandered 4 kilometers at 2 kilometers per hour. How long did Jose wander?

Answers

Jose wandered for 2 hour with speed at 2 kilometers per hour.

What is speed?

The speed of an item, which is a scalar quantity in everyday usage and kinematics, is the size of the change in that object's position over time or the size of the change in that object's position per unit of time.

The instantaneous speed is the upper limit of the average speed as the duration of the time interval approaches zero. The average speed of an item in a period of time is equal to the distance travelled by the object divided by the duration of the period.

Given parameters:

Distancetravelled by Jose = 4 kilometer.

Speed of Jose = 2 kilometers per hour.

Now from definition of speed:

Total time taken = Distance travelled by Jose ÷ Speed of Jose

= 4 kilometer ÷ 2 kilometers per hour.

= 2 hour.

Hence,  Jose wandered for 2 hour.
