Chemistry

The Photon is the "release" of energy in the form of light. Energy absorbed by the atom causes a change in energy of the electrons of a stable atom. This change forces an electron to move from one valance ring to another. The energy is released in the form of light called a photon. Depending on the amount of energy released and the valance the electron jumps to is what determines the light (photon) wave length. If an atom has too much light than it may disappear/explode.<span>

What are all of the ways can use the atomic number to find information about an atom?
galben [10]

Answer:

The symbol for an atom can be written to show its mass number at the top, and its atomic number at the bottom. To calculate the numbers of subatomic particles in an atom, use its atomic number and mass number: number of protons = atomic number. number of electrons = atomic number.

Nitrogen-13 has a half-life of about 10 minutes. How much of a 320g sample of N-13 would remain after 40 minutes?
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

The half-life of a radioisotope describes the amount of time it takes for said isotope to decay to one-half the original amount present in the sample.

Nitrogen-13, because it has a half-life of ten minutes, will experience two half-lives over the course of the twenty minute period. This means that 25% of the isotope will remain after this.

0.25 x 128mg = 32mg

32mg of Nitrogen-13 will remain after 20 minutes.
