Answer:
A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other and atom become neutral.
Explanation:
An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.
All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other and atom become neutral. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.
For example
The carbon have six protons and six neutrons so its atomic mass is 12 amu and atomic number is six.
We have been given the condition that carbon makes up 35%
of the mass of the substance and the rest is made up of oxygen. With this, it
can be concluded that 65% of the substance is made up of oxygen. If we let x be
the mass of oxygen in the substance, the operation that would best represent
the scenario is,
<span> x = (0.65)(5.5 g)</span>
<span> <em> </em><span><em>x =
3.575 g</em></span></span>
Mass = 473.2 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of cobalt(III) nitrate = 206 g
Mass of silver bromide produced = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
CoBr₃ + 3AgNO₃ → 3AgBr + Co(NO₃)₃
Number of moles of cobalt(III) nitrate:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 206 g/ 245 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.84 mol
Now we will compare the moles of cobalt(III) nitrate with silver bromide.
An element with an atomic number 12 has 12 protons.
atomic number=number of protons.
