Answer:  Ratio of Protons to neutrons

Explanation: An atom consist of nucleus which contains the protons and neutrons and the ratio of the later two defines the stability of an atom.

Thus in other words, we can say that the stability of atom is determined by the nuclear stability of atom.

If the ration of the neutron to the proton is balanced, the atom is stabilized and if it is not balanced, it will lead to the radioactive decay of the atom.

Lavoisier's discovery that air was not a substance but rather a mixture of nitrogen and oxygen is described as history-making. w
Taya2010 [7]
Antoine Lavoisier was part of a wealthy family in Paris. He pursued to study science upon realizing that chemistry or the study of the elements was not a well-studied field. His discovery of that air was a mixture of nitrogen and oxygen gave rise to the concept of COMBUSTION after repeating the experiments made by Priestly using mercury and other metal oxides. 

The event was such a history-making because it disproved that concept that air was a pure substance along with 3 others: earth, fire, and water.

63.5 grams of alcohol having a density of 0.818 g/ml are require for a chemical reaction. How many milliliters of alcohol should
damaskus [11]
Mass = 63.5 grams

density = 0.818 g/mL

D = m / V

0.818 = 63.5 / V

V = 63.5 / 0.818

V = 77.628 mL

hope this helps!
