If we have a neutral atom, then it has the same number protons and neutrons.
The number protons and neutrons for neutral atom shows atomic number.
"A neutral atom has an atomic number of 20" means that atom has 20 protons (that give charge "+ 20" ) and 20 electrons (that give charge "-20").
Answer is 20 electrons.
Answer:1 3 4 1 im pretty positive
Acid base neutralization reaction is a chemical reaction between acid and base, which will result into water and a salt. this is neutralization because the product of the reaction which is water is neutral, the pH is 7 and the salt as well
Answer: E. It decreases the value of Eact.
Explanation:
Activation energy is the extra energy that must be supplied to reactants in order to cross the energy barrier and thus convert to products.
A catalyst is a substance which increases the rate of a reaction by taking the reaction through a different path which involves lower activation energy and thus more molecules can cross the energy barrier and more molecules convert to products.
The catalyst itself does not take part in the chemical reaction and is regenerated as such at the end.
The atomic number of an element tells you the number of protons within said element.
