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.

describe how a pure dry sample of solid lead carbonate can be obtained from sodium carbonate solution and lead nitrate solution
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Soluble salts can be made by reacting acids with soluble or insoluble reactants. Titration must be used if the reactants are soluble. Insoluble salts are made by precipitation reactions.

Making insoluble salts

An insoluble salt can be prepared by reacting two suitable solutions together to form a precipitate.

Determining suitable solutions

All nitrates and all sodium salts are soluble. This means a given precipitate XY can be produced by mixing together solutions of:

X nitrate

sodium Y

For example, to prepare a precipitate of calcium carbonate:

X = calcium and Y = carbonate

mix calcium nitrate solution and sodium carbonate solution together

calcium nitrate + sodium carbonate → sodium nitrate + calcium carbonate

Ca(NO3)2(aq) + Na2CO3(aq) → 2NaNO3(aq) + CaCO3(s)

It also works if potassium carbonate solution or ammonium carbonate solution is used instead of sodium carbonate solution. Remember that all common potassium and ammonium salts are soluble.

Determine the volume of atmospheric air (at 14 lb/in.^2) needed to fill your bike tires (assuming it holds 500 mL of air) to the
Fiesta28 [93]

Boyle Law says “the pressure of fixed amount of ideal gas which is at constant temperature is inversely proportional to its volume".<span>

P = 1/V

<span>Where, P is pressure of the ideal gas and V is volume of the ideal gas.</span>

<span>For two situations, this law can be added as;
P</span>₁V₁ = P₂V₂<span>

</span><span>14 lb/in² x V₁ = 70 lb/in² x 500 mL</span><span>
                 </span><span>V₁ = 2500 mL</span><span>

Hence, the needed volume of atmospheric air = 2500 mL

<span>Here, we made two </span>assumptions. They are,
1. The atmospheric air acts as ideal gas.
2. Temperature is a constant.

<span>We didn't convert the units to SI units since converting volume and pressure are products of two numbers, they will cut off. </span></span></span>
