What are the number if protons, neutrons, and electrons
marishachu [46]

protons and electrons are both always the atomic number which is 9 in this case.

For neutrons you subtract the atomic number (9) from the weight of the atom (18.998) some teachers will want you to round to the nearest whole (19). We do this because the number of protons is the atomic number so if you subtract the protons from the whole weight of the atom you would have the electrons and neutrons left. Since electrons weigh so little we don't have to subtract them. Weighing neutrons and electrons would be like weighing an elephant (neutrons) and then putting one marshmallow on the scale (electron).

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The answer is 12,560  

Explanation:

The orbital period is the time a given cosmic question takes to finish one circle around another protest and applies in space science as a rule to planets or space rocks circling the Sun, moons circling planets, exoplanets circling different stars, or double stars. Mercury, for instance, has an orbital time of 88 days while it takes Jupiter around 11.86 years. The time of the Earth's circle is generally thought to be 365 days as timetables appear.
