The total atomic number must be the same on each side. The total mass number must be the same on both side. 

<span>On the RHS, for the mass number, we have 257 + 4 = 261 (the 4 comes from the 4 neutrons). That means the mass number of the missing piece on the LHS is 261 - 247 = 14. </span>

<span>One the RHS, for the atomic number we have a total of 104 since the 4 neutrons are all neutral. On the LHS, we have this: 104 - 98 = 6. </span>

<span>The missing piece is a nucleus of carbon 14. Done in your style, it is 14/6C</span>

Answer: the missing nucleus is an isotope of oxygen 18/8 O

Explanation:

Since the reacting mass must be equal to the resulting mass

That is right hand side must be equal to the left

We check the total number of reacting moles in the equation

On the right hand we have 267/106

On the left hand side we have 249+x/98+x

Equation both we have

249+ x/98+y = 267/106

Therefore x = 18

y = 8

This is an isotope of oxygen

List 4 types of information that are given in each box of the periodic table:
omeli [17]
1) the element symbol, and thus name. For example, H is hydrogen, C is carbon and Fe is iron.

 2) The atomic number, which is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus.

 3) Since each proton has a +1 charge, you can also figure out the number of -1 electrons in the neutral atom.

 4) The atomic mass, in atomic mass units, which is an average of 1 or more isotopes of the element.

Why is Newton's first law of motion important to science?
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Newton's laws are very important because they tie into almost everything we see in everyday life. These laws tell us exactly how things move or sit still, like why you don't float out of bed or fall through the floor of your house.

Explanation: Newton's laws of motion are important because they are the foundation of classical mechanics, one of the main branches of physics. Mechanics is the study of how objects move or do not move when forces act upon them.
