What is the ATOMIC NUMBER for an element with 5 protons, 6 neutrons and 2 electrons?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ronch [10]11 months ago
8 0

The element's Atomic number , which has 5 protons, 6 neutrons, and 2 electrons (the atomic number is the number of protons) =  5

<h3>What in an atomic number?</h3>

the number assigned to a chemical element according to its atomic number in the periodic system, which places the elements in ascending order of the number of protons in their nuclei. As a result, the atomic number is also the number of protons, which in a neutral atom is always equal to the amount of electrons.

<h3>Briefing:</h3>

Protons and neutrons are added to determine an element's mass number. The only number that may change while maintaining the identity of an element is the number of neutrons for that element (because the atomic number is the number of protons).

Mass number = protons + neutrons

<h3>According to the given data;</h3>

Given:

5 protons,

6 neutrons

2 electrons

Atomic number = ?

We know that the Mass number = protons + neutrons:

Mass number = protons + neutrons

Mass number = 5 + 6:

Mass number = 11

The element's Atomic number , which has 5 protons, 6 neutrons, and 2 electrons (the atomic number is the number of protons) =  5.

What would be the greatest difference in using an open ceramic coffee mug rather than an insulated mug with a lid as a calorimet
adoni [48]
The answer is number 4 or the exchange of energy with the surroundings. Calorimetry is a measurement of energy that is formed or absorbed in a certain process. The calorimeter is the instrument used in order to measure the energy. It is recommended that a calorimeter should be a closed system so as to measure precisely the energy and avoid or lessen the exchange of energy with the surroundings. Thus, comparing an open ceramic mug and an insulated mug with a lid, the greatest difference is the energy lost to the surroundings.

Define the following solar features in detail: Solar flare: Sunspot Prominence:
Over [174]
Solar flare: a brief eruption of intense high-energy radiation from the sun's surface, associated with sunspots and causing electromagnetic disturbances on the earth, as with radio frequency communications and power line transmissions.

Sunspot Prominence: It is a large, bright, gaseous feature extending outward from the Sun's surface, often in a loop shape. It is similar to a Solar Flare

A single penny is 1.52 mm thick. The distance to the next nearest star other than our own (Alpha Centauri) is 4.22 light-years.
crimeas [40]

Answer:

2.29 × 10⁴ times

Explanation:

A single penny is 1.52 mm thick. The distance covered by 1 mole of pennies (6.02 × 10²³ pennies) is:

6.02 × 10²³ p × (1.52 mm/1 p) = 9.15 × 10²³ mm = 9.15 × 10²³ × 10⁻³ m = 9.15 × 10²⁰ m

The distance to the next nearest star other than our own (Alpha Centauri) is 4.22 light-years. Considering 1 ly = 9.46 × 10¹⁵ m, this distance in meters is:

4.22 ly × (9.46 × 10¹⁵ m/1 ly) = 3.99 × 10¹⁶ m

The times that the stack would go between the earth and Alpha Centauri are:

9.15 × 10²⁰ m / 3.99 × 10¹⁶ m = 2.29 × 10⁴
