The periodic table lists two main numbers for each element. the atomic number is an integer that equals the number of protons. t

he number of neutrons is not given in the periodic table because it will vary with different isotopes. the mass number of an element is the sum of the protons and neutrons. to find the number of neutrons, the atomic number must be subtracted from the mass number.

Given that isotopes do exist, the mass numbers given on the periodic table reflect the average of the most common isotopes existing. This is calculated:
Atomic Mass=(Fractional abundance of isotope 1*mass of isotope 1)+(Fractional abundance of isotope 2*mass of isotope 2)... depending on how many isotopes there are. But, generally, you can find the most likely number of neutrons by subtracting the atomic number (protons) from the atomic mass(protons+neutrons).

Somebody help me with this please very much appreciated

The answer for the following answer is explained below.

The answer is NH_{4} ^{+}

Explanation:

Bronsted-Lowry acid :

It is a solution that donates protons, and is known as a proton donor.It donates protons in the form of hydrogen ion(H^{+}).This is reinforced by the definition of an acid ,which is a solution that has hydrogen ions.

In Bronsted-Lowry aci it must contain a hydrogen io that it can give up.When the acid gives a hydrogen ion,the charge of an acid decreases.

Here,

NH_{4} ^{+}  loses one hydrogen ion and forms ammonia molecule.

So therefore the Bronsted-Lowry acid  is NH_{4} ^{+}.
