Answer: Substance is Mercury (Hg)

              number of protons = 80

              number of electrons = 80

Explanation:

Atomic number which is symbolized by "Z" is the number of protons in nucleus of an atom.

Hence,

     number of protons = atomic number = 80

  • By knowing atomic number, we can find the element by using periodic table. Since the atomic number 80, the element is Mercury (Hg).

If the substance is in its neutral state, which means there is no charge on it, then the number of protons equals to the number of electrons of that element.

Hence,

   number of electrons = number of protons = 80

A particular experiment requires 13.5 µl hydrochloric acid solution. if 250 ml hydrochloric acid solution is available, how many
ladessa [460]
The amount of HCl required for one experiment - 13.5 µl 
the volume in terms of L - 13.5 x 10⁻⁶ L
the volume of HCl available - 0.250 L 
since one experiment uses up - 13.5 x 10⁻⁶ L 
then number of experiments - 0.250 L / 13.5 x 10⁻⁶ L  = 1.8 x 10⁴ times 
the experiment can be carried out 18000 times

Explain why a coin is able to float on top of water in a glass.
AlexFokin [52]
It is the concept of surface tension that helps the coin to float on the top of the water in the glass. The surface tension acts just opposite to the gravitational force and that is why when any metal placed in the water it will float and come on the surface. Hope this helps!
