What element has 80 protons, 81 neutrons, 79 electrons?

Mariana [72]

Answer:

The element will be $^{161}_{80}X$

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of proton = 80

Number of neutron = 81

Number of electron = 79

We know that,

The atomic number is equal to the number of proton.

So, the atomic number is 80.

According to atomic number,

The element will be mercury.

We need to calculate the atomic mass

Using formula of atomic mass

$atomic\ mass=atomic\ number+number\ of\ neutron$

Put the value into the formula

$atomic\ mass=80+81$

$atomic\ mass=161$

We need to find the element

Using atomic mass and atomic number

$atomic\ mass\ number A=161$

$atomic\ number Z=80$

So, the element will be

$^{A}_{Z}X$

Put the value of A and Z

Hence, The element will be $^{161}_{80}X$

If a 185-lb patient is prescribed 145mg. What dosage is the patient receiving in mg/kg of his body weight?

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

1.728 mg/kg

Explanation:

First have to convert the patient's weight to kg

1 lb = 0.454 kg

185 lb in kg = 83.9 kg

Then we have to divide the dose per the weight of the patient

145 mg for 83.9 kg = 145/83.9

= 1.728 mg/kg
