Answer: Gallium-72

Explanation:

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons that are present in an atom. It is characteristic of an element.

Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of protons = 31

Thus the element with atomic number of 31 is Gallium.

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

There were 39 neutrons and then 2 more were added , thus there are 39+2 = 41 neutrons

Thus mass number = 31 + 41 = 72

Thus the element will be gallium with 72 mass number.

Question 25———-A, YA are two isotopes of element A.
lakkis [162]

Answer:

Option C. 1

Explanation:

Step 1:

Determination of the Neutron of both isotopes. This is illustrated below.

For isotope y xA:

Mass number = y

Atomic number = x

Neutron =..?

Atomic number = proton number = x

Mass number = Proton + Neutron

y = x + Neutron

Rearrange

Neutron = y – x

For isotope (y + 1) xA:

Mass number = y + 1

Atomic number = x

Neutron =.?

Atomic number = proton number = x

Mass number = Proton + Neutron

y + 1 = x + Neutron

Rearrange

Neutron = y + 1 – x

Step 2:

Determination of the difference between the neutron number of both isotopes. This is illustrated below:

For isotope y xA:

Neutron number = y – x

For isotope (y + 1) xA:

Neutron number = y + 1 – x

Difference in neutron number

=> (y + 1 – x) – (y – x)

=> y + 1 – x – y + x

Rearrange

=> y – y + 1 – x + x

=> 1

Therefore, the difference in the neutron number of both isotopes is 1

Using the periodic table, how would you find elements with chemical properties similar to helium?
rosijanka [135]
<span>The state of the helium in its natural form is gaseous and is a chemical element of colorless aspect and belongs to the group of noble gases. The atomic number of helium is 2. The chemical symbol of helium is He. For the following we focus on those elements and relate it with similar chemical properties. Then we find that; Neon, Hydrogen, Boron and Carbon are related to helium, either by proximity in their atomic number or period or by their group.</span>
