What does the atomic mass tell you? The atomic mass tells us the weight of protons and neutrons. How do you know how many electrons there are surrounding the nucleus of a particular atom? Why isn’t the atomic mass always a whole number? Atomic mass is never an integer number for several reasons: The atomic […]

Why is a scale important on a graph?
Why is a scale important on a graph? The distance between two numbers indicates a unit and this unit remains uniform throughout a scale. Thus, a scale plays a crucial part in plotting graphs. Without scales, we won’t be able to infer anything relevant from the graph. A scale on a graph can have any […]

Does phenolphthalein turn pink in acid or base?
Does phenolphthalein turn pink in acid or base? Phenolphthalein is often used as an indicator in acid–base titrations. For this application, it turns colorless in acidic solutions and pink in basic solutions. It belongs to the class of dyes known as phthalein dyes. What is the pH range for the color change of phenolphthalein? Indicator […]
What are the 2 types of active transport?
What are the 2 types of active transport? Active transport requires cellular energy to achieve this movement. There are two types of active transport: primary active transport that uses adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and secondary active transport that uses an electrochemical gradient. Is facilitated diffusion an example of passive transport? Facilitated diffusion is a type of […]

What is the most probable reason why a life jacket helps you float in water?
What is the most probable reason why a life jacket helps you float in water? The trapped air weighs much less than the weight of the water it displaces, so the water pushes up harder than the life jacket pushes down, allowing the life jacket to remain buoyant and float. This buoyancy is strong enough […]
