The number of protons in an atom is equal the atomic number (= 50)
The sum of the Neutrons and Protons is the Atomic Mass (=125)
Neutrons + Protons=125
Plug in for the protons (50)
Neutrons +(50)=125
Then, once solved, we have Neutrons = 75
Assuming the atom is NOT an ion, the amount of electrons is equal to the number of protons. (protons=electrons=50=50)
Therefore:
There are 50 electrons, 50 protons, and 75 electrons.
Answer:
10.8 days (3 sig.figs.)
Explanation:
All radioactive decay is 1st order decay defined by the expression A = A₀e^-kt
which is solved for time of decay (t) => t = ln(A/A₀) / -k
A = final weight = 1.0 gram
A₀ = initial weight = 16.0 grams
k = rate constant = 0.693/t(1/2) = 0.693/2.69 days = 0.258 days⁻¹
t = ln(1/16) / -0.258da⁻¹ = (-2.77/-0.258) days = 10.74646792 days (calculator)
≅ 10 days (1 sig. fig. based on given 1 gram mass)

Explanation:
Anode;
Sn(s) ------> Sn^2+(aq) + 2e
Cathode;
Mn^2+(aq) + 2e ------> Mn(s)
The minimum voltage required to drive the reaction is the cell voltage. The cell voltage is obtained from;
E°cell= E°cathode - E°anode
E°cell= -1.19 - (-0.14)
E°cell= -1.05 V
