How do you calculate the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in an element?

Chemistry

Answer:

The first thing you will need to do is find some information about your element. Go to the Periodic Table of Elements and click on your element. If it makes things easier, you can select your element from an alphabetical listing.

Number of Protons = Atomic Number

Number of Electrons = Number of Protons = Atomic Number

Number of Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number

For krypton:

Number of Protons = Atomic Number = 36

Number of Electrons = Number of Protons = Atomic Number = 36

Number of Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number = 84 - 36 = 48

Explanation:

hope this helps, have a good day :-)

deff fn [24]

Answer:

carbon mass = 12.01g/mol

hydrogen mass = 1.01g/mol

4 carbon atoms and 10 hydrogen so

12.01 x 4 + 1.01 x 10

48.04g/mol + 10.10g/mol

= 58.14g/mol

6. According to Crystal Field Theory, what should be the color of an aqueous solution of the ion [Y(H2O)6]3
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Colourless

Explanation:

We know that Y^3+ has the electronic configuration of;

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 (the 5s and 4d levels are empty).

According to the crystal field theory, the colour of complexes result from transitions between incompletely filled d orbitals.

As a result of this, complexes with empty or completely filled d orbitals are colourless. Thus,  [Y(H2O)6]3 is colourless according to the Crystal Field Theory.

List the ions in solution in the electrolysis of conc.sodium chloride<br>​
Licemer1 [7]
Chloride ions Cl –(aq) (from the dissolved sodium chloride) are discharged at the positive electrode as chlorine gas, Cl 2(g) sodium ions Na +(aq) (from the dissolved sodium chloride) and hydroxide ions OH –(aq) (from the water) stay behind - they form sodium hydroxide solution, NaOH(aq)
