Answer:

12

Explanation:

If you look at the periodic table, you can see that magnesium has an atomic mass of 24.305.  Subtract the number of protons from this to get neutrons.

24.305 - 12 = 12.305

12.305 is the average amount of neutrons a magnesium atom can have.  A magnesium atom can have 12, 13, or 14 neutrons.  The average, based on the natural abundance, is 12.305.  To find which isotope is more abundant, you need to pick the number that is closest to the average.  This would make the most abundant isotope the one with 12 neutrons.

Why does the chemical reaction seen here obey the law of conservation of matter?
ss7ja [257]

Why does the chemical reaction seen here obey the law of conservation of matter?

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • Because there are the same number of atoms of each element shown on both sides

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

  • As in chemical reactions, atoms bonds are break and new bonds are formed. As new substance are formed but overall they have same elements, no new elements come from outside or go to outside. In other words , rearrangement of atoms take place but number of atoms remained same.

                            NaOH + HCl -----> NaCl + H2O

  • As in above reaction there are the same number of atoms of each element shown on both sides .

If you want to use a serial dilution to make a 1/50 dilution. The first dilution you make is a 1/5 dilution with a total volume
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

0.2 mL stock solution, 0.8 solvent, 0.1 mL first solution and 0.9 solvent

Explanation:

The final volume for fist solution is 1 mL and concentration must will be 1/5, then 1 mL/5=0.2 mL. For complete the 1 mL add the missing solvent volume 1 mL-0.2 mL=0.8 mL. For second solution, assuming final volume is 1 mL, and concentration 1/10, then we have 1 mL /10=0.1 mL solution 1/5. Completing volume, 1 mL-0.1 mL= 0.9 mL solvent.
