Answer:

20 protons, 20 electrons, and 21 neutrons

Explanation:

The atomic number of an atom is the number of protons it has. If the atomic number is 20 then we know the atom has 20 protons.

•The mass number of an atom is the total number of protons and neutrons the atom contains. The mass number is 41 and the number of protons is 20, just subtract 20 from 41 and you will get the number of neutrons: 41 - 20= 21. The atoms has 21 neutrons.

•The number of electrons found in an atom is equal to the number of protons. The atoms has 20 protons which means it has 20 electrons.

So, the answer is:

20 protons, 20 electrons, and 21 neutrons

Nitric acid can be produced by the reaction of gaseous nitrogen dioxide with water. 3 no2(g + h2o(? ?? 2 hno3(? + no(g if 538 l
Phantasy [73]
The balanced chemical reaction is written as:

<span>3NO2 + H2O = 2HNO3 + NO

Assuming that the gases in this reaction are ideal gas, then we can use the conversion from L to moles which is 1 mol of ideal gas is equal to 22.4 L. We calculate as follows:

538 L NO2 ( 1 mol / 22.4L ) ( 1 mol NO / 3 mol NO2 ) ( 22.4 L / 1 mol ) = 179.33 L NO is produced</span>

Using 273.15 K as the value for Zero degree Celsius convert 45.1° C to Kelvin. 6.05 K 318 K 318.3 K 1.23 x 104 K
OLEGan [10]
Zero degree celcius = 273.15 degree kelvin

Simply, to get the value of 45.1 degree celcius in kelvin, we will add 273.15 to the given value (45.1).

Degree in kelvin = 45.1 + 273.15 = 318.25 degree kelvin

Approximating to the nearest tenth, the value will be 318.3 degree kelvin
