Answer:

Sodium has a mass number of 23amu. Since sodium has 11 protons, the number of neutrons must be 23 – 11 = 12 neutrons.

Explanation:

The mass number is given at the top left of the elements symbol, for example, sodium has a mass number of 23.

Sodium (Na) square from the periodic table. The mass number (23) is top-left. The atomic number (11) is bottom-left.

We know that the atomic number of sodium is 11. This tells us that sodium has 11 protons and because it is neutral it has 11 electrons.

The mass number of an element tells us the number of protons AND neutrons in an atom (the two particles that have a measurable mass).

Sodium has a mass number of 23amu. Since sodium has 11 protons, the number of neutrons must be 23 – 11 = 12 neutrons.

Natalija [7]

Hello!! My answer would be that they should add the solar panels that faces the south. Since the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, the south portion would get both sunlight from the east and west sides. I hope this helps!!

Calculate the pH if the [H^+] = 9.71 ×<br> 10^-8
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

pH = 7.01

Explanation:

The pH can be calculated using the formula:

pH = -log[H⁺]

In this formula, [H⁺] represents the concentration of H⁺. Since you have been given this value, you can easily find the pH.

pH = -log[H⁺]

pH = -log[9.71 x 10⁻⁸]

pH = 7.01

How do you find the theoretical yleld of a chemical reaction?
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Explanation:

To calculate the theoretical yield, determine the number of moles of each reactant, in this case the sole reactant ethanol. Convert the 100 g to moles; the molecular weight of ethanol is 46 g/mole, therefore: Since there is only one reactant, it is also the limiting reagent.

Complete the following nuclear equations by entering the missing isotope:
Margarita [4]

The nuclear equation :

₈₂²¹⁴Pb ⇒ ₈₃²¹⁴Bi + ₋₁⁰e

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Given

₈₂²¹⁴Pb

beta β ₋₁e⁰ particles

Required

Nuclear equation

Solution

Radioactivity is the process of unstable isotopes to stable isotopes by decay, by emitting certain particles,  

  • alpha α particles ₂He⁴
  • beta β ₋₁e⁰ particles
  • gamma particles ₀γ⁰
  • positron particles ₁e⁰
  • neutron ₀n¹

The principle used is the sum of the atomic number and mass number before and after the decay reaction is the same

The reaction

₈₂²¹⁴Pb ⇒ X + ₋₁⁰e

The element X has

-the atomic number = 82 + 1 = 83

-the mass number = 214

In the periodic system, the element with atomic number 83=Bismuth
