In order to find out how many protons a sodium atom has, you have to look at the periodic table. Sodium is Na on the periodic table and you look for the number on the top of the symbol and you can see that it has 11 protons. To find out how many neutrons, you have to subtract 11 from the mass number, which is 23. 23-11 = 12.

12 neutrons; 11 protons

Would you expect the carbonyl carbon of benzaldehyde to be more or less electrophilic than that of acetaldehyde? Explain using r
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

Benzaldehyde is less electrophilic than acetaldehyde

Explanation:

Electrophilicity of carbonyl carbon depends on it's positive charge density.

In benzaldehyde, phenyl group can act as an electron donating group towards carbonyl group due to it's electron donating resonating effect.

In acetaldehyde, methyl group can act as an electron donating group towards carbonyl group due to it's electron donating inductive effect.

We know that resonating effect are more stronger than inductive effect.

Henece, it is expected that positive charge density on carbonyl carbon is much lower in benzaldehyde than acetaldehyde.

So, benzaldehyde is less electrophilic than acetaldehyde.

Resonating effect of phenyl group has been shown below.

Distinguish(solid,liquid,gas)​
amm1812

Answer:

Explanation:

A solid, at a given temperature, has a definite volume  

and shape which may be affected by changes in  

temperature. Solids usually increase slightly in size  

when heated (expansion)  and usually  

decrease in size if cooled (contraction).A liquid, at a given temperature, has a  

fixed volume and will take up the shape of any  

container into which it is poured. Like a solid, a  

liquid’s volume is slightly affected by changes in  

temperature.

A gas, at a given temperature, has neither a definite  

shape nor a definite volume. It will take up the shape  

of any container into which it is placed and will  

spread out evenly within it. Unlike those of solids  

and liquids, the volumes of gases are affected quite  

markedly by changes in temperature.

When you see or visit grasslands, what do you know about the climate? (Select all that apply.)
Nana76 [90]

When you see  or visit grasslands you know that :

  • They have mild to hot summers ( B )
  • They have a lot of precipitation  ( A )

<h3><u>Grassland vegetation</u> </h3>

Grasslands are a type of vegetation found mostly in areas with favourable weather conditions such as mild summers and right amount of precipitation which provides the grasslands with enough water for proper growth.

Other types of vegetation include :

  • Forest vegetation
  • Tundra  and
  • Desert vegetation

Desert vegetation expreciences very hot summers and little precipitation which leads to the scarcity of green vegetation, while forest vegetation expreciences a very high level of precipitation.

Hence we can conclude that When you see  or visit grasslands you know that :They have mild to hot summers ,They have a lot of precipitation
