Which of the following atoms contains the same number of neutrons as an atom of Fluorine-19?

2 answers:

8 0

In Flourine-19, you can determine that the number of Neutrons is 10.

Now, if you look at Neon-20, you subtract its mass by the number of protons, leaving you with 10.

Therefore, Neon-20 has the same number of neutrons as Flourine-19.

Answer:

Neon is the elements with same number of neutrons as of Fluorine.

Explanation:

Mass number of an element is the sum of atomic number of element and number of neutrons.

atomic number is number of protons.

The atomic number of given elements are

Neon: 10

Oxygen: 8

Sodium: 11

Nitrogen: 7

Fluorine: 9

The number of neutrons will be

Fluorine-19

Number of neutrons =19-9=10

Neon-20 :

Number of neutrons = 20-10 = 10

Oxygen-19:

Number of neutrons = 19-8 = 11

Sodium-22

Number of neutrons = 22-11 = 11

Nitrogen-16

Number of neutrons = 16-7 = 9

thus Neon is the elements with same number of neutrons as of Fluorine.

1) Compounds:

a) Chemically combined.

b) Components change properties.

c) Fixed proportions.

2) Mixtures:

a) Physically combined.

b) Components retain properties.

c) Variable proportions.

3) Both:

a) Made of elements.

b) 2 or more components.

A compound is a pure substance because its molecule cannot be broken down into simpler particles by physical means. For example water (H₂O) is a chemical compound made of two elements (hydrogen and oxygen).

In chemical change new substances are formed, the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is followed by an energy change.

There are no chemical bonds between substances in the mixture.,For example, mixture is solution of water and alcohol.
