Hey there! Let's get that problem solved!
First: Let's define, "solution."
Solution: <span>a liquid mixture in which the minor component (the solute) is uniformly distributed within the major component (the solvent).
Next: Ask yourself, "can a solution be taken apart?"
In some cases, yes. It can.
The solution of salt water for example, can be physically separated by evaporation. (place salt-water in a pot on a heated stove, place the cover to the pot on the opening, wait a few minutes, remove the top, and you can (and taste) the water without the salt!) </span><span />
Answer:
All atoms of the same element have always have the same amount of protons.
Explanation:
Atoms of the same element have always have the same amount of protons but not always the same electrons and neutrons. If an atom gains or loses one of its valance electrons, the electrons on the outermost shell, then it becomes ionized. Also not all atoms of the same element have the same amount of neutron. This is called an isotope. A good example would be Carbon 13. Normally, Carbon atoms have an atomic mass of 12 AMU or 12 atomic mass units. However, Carbon atoms have an atomic mass of 13 AMU, consisting of 7 neutrons instead of 6 neutrons. So the only thing that all atoms of the same element have in common is the amount of protons.
