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.

What is the pOH of a 0.00037 M solution of barium hydroxide
ruslelena [56]

Answer: pOH = 3.13

Ba(OH)2 is a very basic substance. The general formula for pOH is - log(OH)

Barium Hydroxide produces 2 moles of OH for every mole of Ba(OH)2 present in the solution.


0.00037 M = 3.7 * 10^-4 Ba(OH)2 will produce 2 *0.00037 M of OH-

OH- = 2* 0.00037 = 0.00074

pOH = - log(0.00074) = 3.13

Elements in group 1 will (lose or gain) electrons to obtain a noble gas structure. How many electrons will the element gain or l
Whitepunk [10]
Answer is: elements in group 1 will lose electrons to obtain a noble gas structure. They will lose 1 electron.
For example ₃Li 1s²2s¹ will lose one electron from 2s oribtal to obtain helium structure ₂He 1s².
Or sodium ₁₁Na 1s²2s²2p⁶3s¹ will also lose one electron to obtain neon structure ₁₀Ne 1s²2s²2p⁶.
