Explain why when an ion is formed, the mass of the atom does not change.

Chemistry
1 answer:
svetoff [14.1K]1 year ago
3 0

Answer:

Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons. The mass of an atom is determined by the total number of neutrons and protons in the nucleus. The difference between an atom and an ion is the number of electrons. The change of electrons does not change the mass because electrons have a negligible mass. In other words, the mass of electrons is so small, it is considered insignificant.

If a sample of radioactive isotopes takes 60 minutes to decay from 200 grams to 50 grams, what is the half-life of the isotope
qaws [65]

Answer:

<u><em>I HOPE IT WILL BE YOUR ANSWER:</em></u>

Explanation:

As given

60 min = 50 gm        (1)

then we know half-life mean half amount decay time

so we can write as the half of 200 is 100 gm hence

T 1/2 = 100               (2)

solving these two equation by cross multiplication we will get

T 1/2 = 120 min
