5 0
The number of protons in an atom is the atom's atomic number.
In a neutral atom the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons.
There is possibility of losing the electrons, but the number of protons are not loosed, except in nuclear chemistry.
So the number of protons is equal to the atom's atomic number.

CH4+O2—-CO2+H2O what is the best classification for the unbalanced equations reaction and why
yawa3891 [41]
I don’t know what you mean by classification exactly but it is a redox equation. The reactant side of carbon is losing hydrogen to form carbon dioxide. And oxygen is gaining hydrogen which gives you the water. Redox reactions are also known as combustion reactions.

Which statement correctly identifies the nuclide that is most likely to be unstable and describes why?
iVinArrow [24]
The answer would be B.

U-238 has a n to p ration of 1.6:1. 146 neutrons and 92 protons.

It is actually the most commonly used isotope is reactors.

C-14 is also a radioactive isotope with 8 neutrons and 6 protons.

The usual and ideal n to p ratio is 1:1 such as C-12 or Mg-24

Use the portion of the periodic table shown below to answer the questions. A portion of the first three columns of the periodic
Anna71 [15]

I'm not sure about part 1, you may need to google it, but part two is 11 protons, 11 electrons and 12 neutrons. You can find protons and electrons by just looking at the atomic number, and you can find neutrons by subtracting the atomic number from the atomic mass.
