Question

11 multiple choice 1 point in a neutral atom, which of the following must be true? it has more neutrons than protons or electrons. there are only neutrons inside the atom. its number of protons is equal to its number of electrons. the neutrons in the atom outnumber the electrons and protons. 12 multiple choice 1 point based on what you know about atomic structure, what can you infer about the word “nuclear?” it relates to protons and neutrons. it relates to electrons. it relates to neutrons only. it relates to ions only.

Explanation:

1. For question 11, a neutral atom has no overall electrical charge. Protons are positively - charged, electrons are negatively - charged, and neutrons are neutral. So, for an atom to be neutral, the number of positive protons must equal the number of negative electrons.
2. For question 12, the nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons. The term "nuclear" relates to the nucleus, thus it relates to protons and neutrons.

Answer:

1. Its number of protons is equal to its number of electrons.
2. It relates to protons and neutrons.
