Answer:
20 electrons
A neutral atom with atomic number 20 will have 20 electrons.
The atomic number is, by definiton, the number of protons in an atom's nucleus but for a neutral atom it's also equal to the number of electrons. Each element has a different, unique number of protons that determines its identity.

Answer:
4 x 12 +9 x 1= 56
Explanation:
I do not know what the 114.17 g/mol comes from
<u>Ionic Bond</u> is formed when the electronegativity difference is 0.4 > 2.0. Electronegativity is a term that can be defined as a tendency of an atom to attract electron towards its own self.
Explanation:
Electronegativity is a term that can be defined as a tendency of an atom to attract electron towards its own self.
An electronegativity of an atom is affected by
- The atomic number of the atom
- Secondly by the distance at which the valence electron are residing from the nucleus
1. In case the electronegativity difference (which is denoted by ΔEN) is less than 0.5 then the bond formed is known as N<u>onpolar covalent.
</u>
2. In case the ΔEN is in between 0.5 and 1.6, the bond formed is referred to as the<u> Polar covalent
</u>
3. In case the ΔEN is more /greater than 2.0, then the bond formed is referred to as<u> Ionic Bond</u>
<u>2 Examples of Ionic bonds</u>
- The formation of sodium fluoride, NaF, from a sodium atom and a fluorine atom is an example of Ionic bond formation.
- Another example is the formation of NaCl from sodium (Na),which is a metal, and chloride (Cl), which is a nonmetal

FeNi or NiFe is an acronym used to refer a family of iron alloys.
<h3>What is alloy?</h3>
An alloy is a mixture of chemical elements that contains at least one is a metal.
<h3>Alloy of iron</h3>
The alloy of iron-nickel can be abbreviated as FeNi, which implies iron-nickel.
where;
- Fe stands for iron
- Ni stands for Nickel
Thus, FeNi or NiFe is an acronym used to refer a family of iron alloys.
