Answer:

Neutron = 42

Proton = 34

Electron = 36

Explanation:

The atomic number (also known as the proton number) of an element does not change even if the element gain or loss electrons.

With this understanding,

Se has atomic number(proton number) = 34

From question,

Mass number of Se ion = 76

Charge = - 2

Neutron number = Mass number - proton number

Neutron number = 76 - 34 = 42

Since Se ion has a charge of 2-, it means it has gain electrons

Therefore the electron number = 34 + 2 = 36

Scientist looking for new substances in plants grind up the plants with methanol. This solvent dissolves many plant compounds. H
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Crystals can be made from methanol by recrystallizing the plant extract from methanol.

The methanol/water system is heated rapidly using a hot plate and the plant extract dissolves in the heating solution until a clear solution is obtained.

The solution is now cooled rapidly. The interior of the flask used for the re crystallization may even by scratched to assist the quick formation of crystals. Large crystals of plant compounds may be obtained using this method. This process should be carried out in a fume hood because of the toxicity of methanol.
