Explanation:
(a) mass number = atomic number + number of neutrons
(the atomic number is the number of protons of an element)
mass number of A = 11 + 12 = 23
mass number of B = 17 + 18 = 35
(b) +1 and -1, respectively
(c) A+ + B- → AB (the first plus sign and the minus sign are superscripts)
False, it must be either empty or filled with electrons order to be most stable.
A drop of iquid mercury is D. <span> a pure substance and an element. This is because mercury is an element which exists as liquid in the normal or standard conditions. It is a metal that is toxic to all environments. It is pure because it is composed only of one kind of substance.</span>
<em>Nothing happens</em>; water is still H₂O, even if it turns into ice, or vapor. Although, the molecules still move around faster, just like a normal gas would.
Atoms are made of 3 types of subatomic particles ; protons, neutrons and electrons
protons and neutrons are located inside the nucleus and electrons are found in energy shells around the nucleus. Protons are positively charged, electrons are negatively charged and neutrons are neutral. elements in their ground state are neutral with equal amounts of protons and electrons.
Atomic number is the number of protons. atomic number is characteristic for the element.
atomic number of Be is 4 therefore Be has 4 protons
answer is B. 4
