Answer:

Helium

Explanation:

We know that this atom has two positive particles on the nucleus (protons) with two neutral particles (neutrons). We can also see that it hass two electrons on the orbitals. Knowing this, we can say that the element is Helium.

Helium has a relative atomic mass of 4 and it's atomic number is 2. The atomic number is equal to the number of protons and electrons the atom has, and the atomic mass can be used to calculate the number of neutrons:

Relative atomic mass = Neutrons + atomic number

So we know that:

Neutrons = relative atomic mass - atomic number

Neutrons = 4 - 2 = 2.

Vinil7 [7]

The Vatican archives stores multiple precious documents and books of the world. These old documents dating hundred of years are kept in high nitrogen levels, in order to prevent the oxidation of the paper (papyrus). The presence of the high level of inert nitrogen in the air in the archives prevents any kind of damage that may caused to the paper or the ink on those documents. This high level of nitrogen, however, may affect the health of the individual by decreasing the oxygen levels in the body.

Hence, the answer is 'the oxygen level will be decreased in the body'.
