What is the total number of neutrons in an atom of 207/82 Pb

Chemistry
1 answer:
patriot [66]4 years ago
6 0

<u>125</u> is the total number of neutrons in an atom of 207/82 Pb

207 - 82 = 125

207 represents the mass number of the atom while 87 represent the atomic number. The mass number is usually the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus.

Explanation:

Atoms of elements are usually classified by their proton number. A change in the proton number changes the element. However, the neutron number of an element can differ within a small range giving various isotopes of the element. Some will be stable others will be less stable. The less stable are less common to occur naturally because they decay.

Usually, for smaller atoms, the number of neutrons is more or less similar to the number of protons. However, with larger atoms, there are more neutrons than protons.

Element Q has an atomic number 68. Consider the isotope Q-136 how many protons are in a neutral atom of this isotope?
mote1985 [20]

Answer: 68

Explanation:

Isotopes of an element have same number of protons but different number of neutrons. Which means isotopes of an element have same atomic number but different mass number.

Atomic number is equal to the number of protons or the number of electrons for a neutral atom and is specific to a particular element.

Mass number is the sum of number of protons and the number of neutrons.

Given : atomic number of element Q = 68 = number of protons

Mass number of isotope Q-136 = 136

But as isotopes have same atomic number, the number of protons will be same and hence there are 68 protons are in a neutral atom of this isotope.

Perform the following
Marianna [84]

Answer:

167.980.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since additions involving the display of the result with the appropriate number of significant figures involve the solution of the system without looking at them:

156.325 +11.65498 =167.97998

Considering that 156.325 is significant to the thousandths and 11.65498 to the hundred thousandths, we infer that the result should be taken to the thousandths as well as 156.325; thus, we obtain:

167.980

Because the second decimal nine is rounded to ten and therefore the 7 is taken to 8.

Best regards!

Solutions with low pH values have which of these properties?
telo118 [61]

Answer:

The correct option is C.

Solutions with low pH values have sour taste.

Explanation:

Low pH value show acidic property which can be define as , -log of conc. of hydrogen ion.

Acid has following properties

  • Sour taste
  • Turn blue litmus into red
  • corrosive

-OH group: Base have OH groups. So it is not correct option so it not correct for low pH i.e. acid

turns litmus paper blue: Base turn red litmus into blue, so it not correct for low pH i.e. acid

feels slippery: Bases are mostly slippery like soap

tastes sour: Sour taste is for acid and bitter taste is for base. So it is correct option for acid
