<u>Answer:</u> Number of protons and electrons in Zinc are 30 and number of neutrons in zinc are 35.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Zinc is the 30th element of the periodic table having mass number of 65.

  • Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons present in an element. It is represented as Z.

Atomic number = Number of protons = Number of electrons

For Zinc:

Z = 30

So, Number of protons = Number of electrons = 30

  • Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and number of neutrons. It is represented as A.

Mass number = Number of neutrons + Number of protons

A = 65

So, Number of neutrons = 65 - 30 = 35

Hence,  number of protons and electrons in Zinc are 30 and number of neutrons in zinc are 35.

Consider four elements from Group 7A: fluorine in the second period, chlorine in the third period, bromine in the fourth period,
madam [21]
Onization energy is the energy required to lose an electron and form an ion. The stronger is the attraction of the atom and the electron the higher the ionization energy, and the weaker is the attraction of the atom and the electron the higher the ionization energy. This leads to a clear trend in the periodic table. Given that the larger the atom the weaker the attraction of the atom to the valence electrons, the easier they will be released, and the lower the ionization energy. This is, as you go downward in a group, the ionization energy decreases. So, the element at the top of the group will exhibit the largest ionization energy. <span>Therefore, the answer is that of the four elements of group 7A, fluorine will have the largest first ionization energy.</span>

a 32 gram radioactive sample has a half-life of 2 days how much of the original sample remains after 6 days
bixtya [17]
First, we will get the "n", the number of half lives, it is the elapsed time over the half life. In the problem, the time is measured in days, so we have 

6/2 = 3 

to get the ending amount of radioactive sample, we have

32g x (1/2)³ = 4 grams of radioactive sample ⇒ the amount left after 6 days

Calculate the volume in liters of a barium acetate solution that contains of barium acetate . Be sure your answer has the correc
Ilya [14]

Answer:

1.09 L

Explanation:

There is some info missing. I think this is the original question.

<em>Calculate the volume in liters of a 0.360 mol/L barium acetate solution that contains 100 g of barium acetate. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.</em>

<em />

The molar mass of barium acetate is 255.43 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 100 grams are:

100 g × (1 mol/255.43 g) = 0.391 mol

0.391 moles of barium acetate are contained in an unknown volume of a 0.360 mol/L barium acetate solution. The volume is:

0.391 mol × (1 L/0.360 mol) = 1.09 L
