A state property X has a value 89.6 units. It undergoes the following changes, first increase by 3.6 units, then increase by another 18.7 units, then decrease by 12.2 units and finally attains a
value of 85.5 units The value for this series of change is A) 14.2 units
B) -4.1 units C) 108.3 units
D) uncertain

B) -4.1 units

Explanation:

According to this question, a state property X has a value 89.6 units. It undergoes the certain changes as follows:

- first increase by 3.6 units

- then increase by another 18.7 units

- then decrease by 12.2 units

- and finally attains a value of 85.5 units

This can be mathematically represented by 89.6 - {3.6 + 18.7 - 12.2 - x) = 85.5

To get x, we say;

89.6 + 3.6 = 93.2

93.2 + 18.7 = 111.9

111.9 - 12.2 = 99.7

99.7 - 85.5 = 14.2units.

The changes that occured is represented as follows:

= (3.6 + 18.7) - (12.2 + 14.2)

= 22.3 - 26.4

= -4.1 units

the atomic number will stay the same no matter how many electrons it has, so it doesn’t decrease nor increase. it’ll only change with a different number of protons
