Answer:

10 Neutrons

Explanation:

Atomic Mass = # of Protons + # of Neutrons

Atomic Number = # of Protons in nucleus and what element

20 = 10 protons + x # of neutrons

10 = x # of protons

Calculate the rate of dissolution (dM/dt) of relatively hydrophobic drug particles with a surface area of 2.5×103 cm2 and satura
Crank

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{1.22 mg/s}}

Explanation:

We can use the Noyes-Whitney equation to calculate the rate of dissolution.

\dfrac{\text{d}M}{\text{d}t} = \dfrac{DA(C_{s} - C)}{d}

Data:

D = 1.75 × 10⁻⁷ cm²s⁻¹

A = 2.5 × 10³ cm²

Cₛ = 0.35 mg/mL

C = 2.1 × 10⁻⁴ mg/mL

d = 1.25 µm

Calculations:

Cₛ - C = (0.35 - 2.1 × 10⁻⁴) mg·cm⁻³ = 0.350 mg·cm⁻³

d = 1.25 µm = 1.25 × 10⁻⁶ m = 1.25 × 10⁻⁴ cm

\dfrac{\text{d}M}{\text{d}t} = \dfrac{(1.75 \times 10^{-7} \text{cm}^{2}\text{s}^{-1})(2.5 \times 10^{3} \text{ cm}^{2})(0.350\text{ mg$\cdot$cm$^{-3}$})}{1.25 \times 10^{-4} \text{ cm}} = \textbf{1.22 mg/s}\\\\\text{The rate of dissolution is $\large \boxed{\textbf{1.22 mg/s}}$}

Match each element to the number of electrons in its valence shell
blondinia [14]

Answer: Be= 2, C =4,  Li = 1 and  B=3

Explanation:

The valence shell can be define as the outermost shell of an atom that contains the valence electrons.

Beryllium (Be), electronic configuration; 1s2 2s2, = 2 electrons in its valence shell.

Carbon (C), electronic configuration; 1s2 2s2 2p2, = 4 electrons in its valence shell.

Lithium (Li), electronic configuration; 1s2 2s1 = 1 electron in its valence shell.

Boron (B) , electronic configuration; 1s2 2s2 2p1 = 3 electron in its valence shell.

why is it much easier for group 14 elements to become stable by sharing instead of transferring electrons9
Effectus [21]

Because they are closer to the farther end of the periodic table. Since they are closer to the farther end they don't want to give away their electrons because it would be easier for them to just steal them from other atoms.
