Why can't elements be separated into smaller parts using chemical means? Too much energy is required, since you'd have to break them down into protons, neutrons, and electrons. You can get this much energy together with nuclear reactions, but not by chemical means.
Answer:
768g
Explanation:
We can use to formula 
. Here, N(A) is the final amount. N0 is the initial amount. t is the time elapsed, and 
is the half life. Plugging in, we get the answer above.
If the element has a charge of +2 it has lost two electrons giving it an overall positive charge making it a cation. In order to find the number of electrons, take the elements atomic number and subtract two since it lost two electrons
