How many neutrons are found in one atom of 16n? express your answer numerically?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Verdich [7]4 years ago
4 0

The number 16 next to the elemental symbol of Nitrogen which is N indicates the mass number of the element. Now the atomic number of N is 7, this is also equal to the number of protons or electrons in the nucleus. So the balance is 16 – 7 = 9 which is being occupied by the neutrons. Therefore the number of neutrons is:

A cube has sides that are 0.03 m . What is the volume of the cube in liters?
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

0.027 litres

Explanation:

volume of cube = length × base area

volume of cube = 0.03m ×( 0.03m × 0.03m )

volume of cube = 0.03m × ( 0.0009m^2 )

volume of cube = 0.000027m^3

1 cubic metre = 1000 litres

0.000027m^3 = 0.027 litres

An isotope contains 26 protons, 24 electrons, and 32 neutrons
Anestetic [448]
The correct option is 58 Fe 2+.
A neutral atom normally has the same number of proton, neutron and electrons, if the number of electrons differ from that of proton, that means that the elements has given some electrons away or it has gained some electrons from another element.
In the question given above, the atomic number of the element is 26 [because the proton number is 26], which means the element is iron. Iron has 24 electrons because it has given two away, so it will have +2. The iron has 32 neutrons instead of 26 so it is an isotope.

The time necessary for the decay of one- half sample of a radioactive substance is a _____. mass defect daughter half life nucli
Mazyrski [523]

Answer: half life

Explanation: Radioactive decay follows first order kinetics and the time required for the decay of a radioactive material is calculated as follows:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\hspace{1mm}log\frac{x}{a}

t= time required

k= disintegration constant

x= amount of substance left after time t

a= initial amount of substance

when one half of the sample is decayed, one half of the sample remains and t can be represented as t_{1/2}

at t= t_{1/2}, x=\frac{a}{2}

t_{1/2}=\frac{2.303}{k}\hspace{1mm}log\frac{a/2}{a}

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}
