Are you referring to DNA?
Answer:
No matter if you are on Earth, the moon or just chilling in space, your mass does not change. But your weight depends on the gravity force; you would weigh less on the moon than on Earth, and in space you would weigh almost nothing at all.
Answer:
The mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons. This means to find the number of neutrons you subtract the number of protons from the mass number. On the periodic table, the atomic number is the number of protons, and the atomic mass is the mass number.

Answer:
4KNO3 ==> 2K2O + 2N2 + 5O2
Explanation:
It's a decomposition, but not a simple one.
KNO3 ==> K2O + N2 + O2 I don't usually do this, but I think the easiest way to proceed is to balancing the K and N together. That will require a 2 in front of KNO3
4KNO3 ==> 2K2O + 2N2 + 5O2
Now you have (3*4) = 12 oxygens. Two are on the K2O. So the other 10 must be on the O2
That should do it.
When carbon compounds react with themselves to form a larger molecule the process is called polymerization. Specifically addition polymerization. sometimes molecules containing containing carbon to carbon double bonds can join together to form longer chains. The double bond is broken and the electrons in it join to neighboring molecules.
