Oxygen, you cannot judge an elements number of protons by its atomic mass, but by the atomic number. the atomic number is 8, thus 8 protons.

A. Oxygen. Oxygen has an atomic mass of 16. The atomic mass of an atom is the combined weight o the protons and neutrons. Since Oxygen's atomic mass is 16, it has 8 protons and 8 neutrons.

How many particles are present in 10.0 moles of table salt?
Dima020 [189]

1.01 x 10^24 molecules.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of molecules in a given number of mole, we can simply multiply by Avogadro's number which is equal to 6.022 x 10 ^23.

Therefore,

10 molecules = 1.68 mol x (6.022 x 10^23 molecules) / (1 mol = 1.01 x 10^24) molecules.

I hope this helps :)

A substance floats or sinks in another because of its relative
mart [117]
A substance floats or sinks in another because of its relative density. Take ice floating in water for example. Water is more dense than ice so ice floats.

Mass is incorrect as the buoyancy or ability of an object to float depends on the mass per volume, which is equivalent to density.

The table shows the amount of radioactive element remaining in a sample over a period of time.
Lunna [17]

Answer:

1. The half-life is 22 years.

2. 132 years

Explanation:

1. Determination of the the half-life.

The half-life of an element is the time taken for half the element to decay.

From the table given above, the original amount of the element 45 g. If we divide 45 by 2, we'll have 22.5 g as half the original amount of element.

Now, the time taken to obtain 22.5 g as shown from the table is 22 years.

Thus, the half-life the element is 22 years.

2. Determination of the time.

Original amount (N₀) = 308 g

Amount remaining (N) = 4.8125 g

Time (t) =?

Next, we shall the number of half-lives that has elapsed. This can be obtained as follow:

Original amount (N₀) = 308 g

Amount remaining (N) = 4.8125 g

Number of half-lives (n) =?

N = 1/2ⁿ × N₀

4.8125 = 1/2ⁿ × 308

Cross multiply

4.8125 × 2ⁿ = 308

Divide both side by 4.8125

2ⁿ = 308 / 4.8125

2ⁿ = 64

Express 64 in index form with 2 as the base.

2ⁿ = 2⁶

n = 6

Thus, 6 half-lives has elapsed.

Finally, we shall determine the time. This can be obtained as follow:

Number of half-lives (n) = 6

Half-life (t½) = 22 years

Time (t) =?

n = t / t½

6= t / 22 years

Cross multiply

t = 6 ×22

t = 132 years.

Thus, the time taken is 132 years.

What is the gravitational force cause<br>​
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer: Gravity

Explanation: The answer is gravity: an invisible force that pulls objects toward each other. ... So, the closer objects are to each other, the stronger their gravitational pull is. Earth's gravity comes from all its mass. All its mass makes a combined gravitational pull on all the mass in your body.
