Mass number is the number of protons and neutrons in an atom, and it tells us about the mass of the atom in amu, or atomic mass units. Atomic mass is the average mass of all the isotopes of a certain type. It is a weighted average that takes into account the abundances of all of the different isotopes

hope this helps :)

Atomic mass is also known as atomic weight. The mass number is a count of the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus.

3Co2 (aq) 6NO3(aq) 6Na (aq) 2PO43–(aq) → Co3(PO4)2(s) 6Na (aq) 6NO3(aq) Identify the net ionic equation for this reaction.
Burka [1]

Answer : The net ionic equation will be,

3Co^{2+}(aq)+2PO_4^{3-}(aq)\rightarrow Co_3(PO_4)_2(s)

Explanation :

In the net ionic equations, we are not include the spectator ions in the equations.

Spectator ions : The ions present on reactant and product side which do not participate in a reactions. The same ions present on both the sides.

The given balanced ionic equation will be,

3Co^{2+}(aq)+6NO_3^-(aq)+6Na^+(aq)+2PO_4^{3-}(aq)\rightarrow Co_3(PO_4)_2(s)+6Na^+(aq)+6NO_3^-(aq)

In this equation, NO_3^-(aq)\text{ and }Na^+(aq) are the spectator ions.

By removing the spectator ions from the balanced ionic equation, we get the net ionic equation.

Thus, the net ionic equation will be,

3Co^{2+}(aq)+2PO_4^{3-}(aq)\rightarrow Co_3(PO_4)_2(s)

What is the solution called in the buret during a titration? g?
Paul [167]
The solution inside the buret during a titration is called the titrant. The titrant is the solution of known concentration and is made to react with the analyte or the solution with the unknown concentration. A colored indicator is added to the analyte and when the color changes upon addition of the titrant, it is said that the endpoint has been reached.

Mama L [17]

Answer:

First off Life sciences are anything concerned with the study of a living organisms. So ones that would be included would be, microbiology biology, botany, zoology, ecology, genetics and medicine, from what the dictionary states

Explanation:

Biology is the natural science that studies life and living organisms. Which also includes molecular interactions, including their physical structure.

Genetics, is the study of heredity and or the variation of inherited characteristics that we get from family.

Microbiology, is the branch of science which deals with microorganisms.

Let me know if this helps, if not I'll continue researching.
