Answer:

Option A) Atoms have lost or gained an electron and have a charge

Explanation:

The result of a loss or gained electron can cause a large or lesser number of protons than the electrons, which causes a charge imbalance because protons have a positive charge and electrons have a negative charge.  If the number of protons or the number of electrons is unequal, then it means that the atom has a charge, and is an ion.  It is a cation if it lost an electron such that it has a positive charge and it is an anion if it gained an electron such that it has a negative charge.

What is the difference between the atomic number and the mass number of an element?
DedPeter [7]

Mass number is the number of protons and neutrons in an atom, and it tells us about the mass of the atom in amu, or atomic mass units. Atomic mass is the average mass of all the isotopes of a certain type. It is a weighted average that takes into account the abundances of all of the different isotopes

hope this helps :)

a researcher obtains a sample of 0.070 M nitrate solition. A 20.0 mL aliquote of the nitrate solution is added to 10.0 mL of amm
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Concentration of nitrate in the new solution = 0.007 M

Explanation:

Given:

Concentration nitrate solution = 0.070 m

Volume of aliquote of the nitrate solution is add = 10.0 ml

Total volume = 100 ml

Find:

Concentration of nitrate in the new solution

Computation:

Number of M. mole = 0.070 m x 10.0 ml

Number of M. mole = 0.7 m-moles

Concentration of nitrate in the new solution = 0.7 m-moles / 100 ml

Concentration of nitrate in the new solution = 0.007 M
