So 14-7=7. There are 7 neutrons.

So the atomic number of an element tells the number of proton in the element.
The atomic mass is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons.

From this we can draw up and equation:
           Atomic Mass =  (# of protons)  +  (# of neutrons)
     
    ⇒  # of neutrons = Atomic Mass - Atomic Number
                               = 14  -  7
                               =  7

Therefore nitrogen has SEVEN neutrons.

Material from an environmental study was suspected to contain the banned pesticide, Aldrin, of which you have a pure sample. Gas
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

In order  to determine unequivocally which of the peaks represent Aldrin, I would run the pure sample through the chromatography equipment.

Explanation:

Gas chromatography is a technique that separates molecules based on their volatility and interaction with both the stationary phase.

The peaks on the chromatogram show how long a substance took to leave the column. Since each different substance substance will leave the column at a different time, each peak can be attributed to a substance.

Therefore, to know which of the 6 peaks represent Aldrin, it is necessary to run the pure Aldrin in the chromatography equipment and see the time of the peak. Then you just need to compare both chromatograms and indentify Aldrin.

Chlorine is more reactive than nitrogen why​
OLga [1]

But nitrogen is inert at room temperature whereas chlorine is highly reactive, the reason is: Nitrogen exists as N triple bond N at room temperature while chlorine exists as Cl single bond Cl at room temperature. Since the bond dissociation energy of triple bond is larger than that of single bond.
