That will make a gold-202 nucleus.
<h3>Explanation</h3>
Refer to a periodic table. The atomic number of mercury Hg is 80.
Step One: Bombard the 
with a neutron 
. The neutron will add 1 to the mass number 202 of 
. However, the atomic number will stay the same.
- New mass number: 202 + 1 = 203.
- Atomic number is still 80.
.
Double check the equation:
- Sum of mass number on the left-hand side = 202 + 1 = 203 = Sum of mass number on the right-hand side.
- Sum of atomic number on the left-hand side = 80 = Sum of atomic number on the right-hand side.
Step Two: The 
nucleus loses a proton 
. Both the mass number 203 and the atomic number will decrease by 1.
- New mass number: 203 - 1 = 202.
- New atomic number: 80 - 1 = 79.
Refer to a periodic table. What's the element with atomic number 79? Gold Au.
.
Double check the equation:
- Sum of mass number on the left-hand side = 203 = 202 + 1 = Sum of mass number on the right-hand side.
- Sum of atomic number on the left-hand side = 80 = 79 + 1 = Sum of atomic number on the right-hand side.
A gold-202 nucleus is formed.
Answer:
Logs in a fire is an example of something burning, also changing its state of form. I think thats chemical change; going from wood to ashes. And charged batteries means they haven't been used yet or they were just charged, resulting in physical change.
Explanation:
I just learned this in science.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
5
Explanation:
A lithium atom with an atomic number of 3 and a charge of -2 will have a total number of electrons.
The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom. For a neutral atom that has not gained or lost electrons, the atomic number is the same as the number of electrons.
neutral atom: atomic number of electrons
For neutral atom of lithium, we will have 3 electrons
Now, lithium with a charge of -2 has gained two more electrons to the original 3 this now makes it 5.
ii.
It is an anion because it is negatively charged.
Negatively charged particles are called anion.
