Answer: True

Explanation:

Petroleum and natural gas are both fossil fuels. They contain a mixture of hydrocarbons but they commonly have alkanes as their composition. The petroleum and natural gas produce after the degradation and decomposition of the organic matter generated after the dead and decaying plant and animal matter under the heap of sediments for long years. The natural gas specifically have methane, butane and propane. Therefore, on the basis of the above description, this can be said that natural gas and petroleum are mostly alkanes.

Determine the number of protons neutrons and electrons in an atom of aluminum-27
ss7ja [257]

Aluminium-27 is an isotope of aluminium characterized by the fact that is has a mass number equal to 27.

Now, an atom's mass number tells you the total number of protons and of neutrons that atom has in its nucleus. Since you're dealing with an isotope of aluminium, it follows that this atom must have the exact same number of protons in its nucleus.

The number of protons an atom has in its nucleus is given by the atomic number. A quick looks in the periodic table will show that aluminium has an atomic number equal to 13.

This means that any atom that is an isotope of aluminium will have 13 protons in its nucleus.

Since you're dealing with a neutral atom, the number of electrons that surround the nucleus must be equal to the number of protons found in the nucleus.

Therefore, the aluminium-27 isotope will have 13electrons surrounding its nucleus.

Finally, use the known mass number to determine how many neutrons you have

mass number=no. of protons+no. of neutrons

no. of neutrons=27−13=14

hope this helps.
