The diagram below is an artist’s impression of a single atom of element Be. The neutrons are shown with stripes, the protons are
gray, and the electrons are black. These particles are not drawn to scale. mc017-1.jpg Which element below could be an isotope of this atom? sodium-10 beryllium-10 boron-9 carbon-9

Answer is: beryllium-10.
The diagram shows that atom has 4 protons, 5 neutrons and 2 valence electrons.
Atomic number is the number of protons, which is characteristic of a chemical element, beryllium (Be) is an element with atomic number 4.
Two valence electrons means that atom is from 2. group of periodic table, only beryllium is from that group; sodium (1. group), boron (13. group) and carbon (14. group).
Beryllium-10 has 6 neutrons, so it is isotope (different number of neutrons or mass number).

Answer:
Explanation:
*Since the titration is between the strong acid HCl and the strong base Ca(OH)2, the pH at the equivalent point should be 7. On interpolation, we will obtain that 9.50mL and 9.82 mL of HCl is required to completely neutralized the given Ca(OH)2 solution.
*pH at the equivalence point =7
we know that pH + pOH = 14
Hence pOH= 14-7=7
pOH= -log(OH-)
The concentration of OH-= 10-pH= 1X10-7 M
One reason for the low solubility may be the higher reaction temperature, Another reason is the common ion effect.
