Remember that the number of electrons are equal to the number of protons, and to find the number of protons you have to look and see the atomic mass of the atom is equal to the number of protons, and to find the number of neutrons you have too subtract the atomic mass to the atomic number.
Example:
You want to find out how many protons, neutrons, and electrons are in Platinum:
- Atomic number is equal to the number of protons:
- So platinum has 78 protons and electrons.
- Subtract atomic mass to atomic number:
(forgetting about the decimals)
So platinum has "78 protons, and electrons, and has 117 neutrons."

The answer is D.
Answer:
b. Nitrification
Explanation:
Nitrifying bacteria are present in the soil that help in the oxidation process of ammonia that liberates the nitrite (NO2-) and nitrate (NO3-) compounds. These resulting compounds are captured by plants and this process is called nitrification. In the nitrification stage there are two chemical processes. That are:
• Nitrous: is the oxidation of ammonia (NH3) that results in the nitrite chemical compound (NO2-).
• Nitration: It is the oxidation of ammonia (NH3) that results in nitrate (NO3-).
