<u>Answer:</u> It determines the mass number of the atom.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Nucleons are the subatomic particles that are present in nucleus of an atom. The particles which are present in the nucleus of an atom are protons and neutrons.

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and number of neutrons. It is represented as A.

A = Number of neutrons + Number of protons

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons that are present in an atom. It is represented as Z.

Z = Number of protons = Number of electrons

From the above information, we conclude that the number of nucleons determines the mass number of an atom.

The number of neutrons in an atom is the number of particles present in its nucleus.
The atomic number is the number of protons whereas the mass number is the number of protons and number of neutrons together
This implies that the number of neutrons is the atom's mass number

Using the periodic table to locate each element, write the electron configuration of(c) Re.
Aleksandr [31]

Rhenium is a chemical element with the symbol Re and atomic number 75. The electron configuration of Re is [Xe] 6s^{2} 4f^{14} 5d^{5}.

<h3>How to write an electronic configuration?</h3>

1. Identify the given element and its atomic number from the periodic table.

2. Write the electron configuration by the energy level and the type of orbital first, then the number of electrons present in the orbital as superscript.

The easiest way to write the electronic configuration for any element is by   using a diagonal rule for electron filling order in the different subshells according to the Aufbau principle.

The 3 rules for writing the electron configuration in the orbital box diagram are – the Aufbau rule, the Pauli-exclusion rule, and Hund's Rule.
