<span>You can answer this question by getting the atomic number and atomic mass of Oxygen from a periodic table. There you will find that the atomic number is 8, that means, by definition, that it has 8 protons. This is, because atomic number is defined as the number of protons of an element. Given that the atom is neutral, that implies that the atoms have the same number of electrons than protons. So you already know that the oxygen atoms has 8 protons and 8 electrons. The number of neutrons can vary, which is what defines the isotopes. Given that the atomic mass of oxygen is 15.999, that means that most atoms of oxygen has 8 neutrons (8 protons +8 neutrons = 16 atomic mass). But you can not be sure that a specific atom of oxygen has 8 neutrons, nevertheless, given that the other options are discarded (because they do not have 8 protons and 8 electrons), the only correct answer is the option A. 8 protons, 8 electrons, and 8 neutrons.</span>
Answer:
The correct answer is option B.
Explanation:
As given ,that 30.24 mL of base was neutralize by 86.14 mL of acid which means that moles of base present in 30.24 mL are neutralized by moles of acid present in 86.14 mL.
After dilution of base from 30.24 mL to 50.0 mL .Since, the moles of base are same in the solution as that of the moles in solution before dilution. Moles of acid require to neutralize the base after dilution will same as a that of present moles of acid present in 86.14 mL.
The answer is a ..........
