Silicon has 14 protons Potassium has 19 electrons The neutrons are equal to the mass number minus the atomic number. Or the big number minus the small number on the periodic table. hydrogen 1 does not have a neutron.

iron =56 -26 for 30 neutrons in the nucleus

Chlorine 17 protons and 17 electrons. 18 or 19 neutrons on average.

1. From the atomic number, the number of protons in an atom’s nucleus.

2. Silicon

3. You can find this from the atomic number. An atom has no overall charge, so it must have an equal number of positive protons and negative electrons. Therefore, the number of electrons surrounding the nucleus must equal the number of protons found in the nucleus, which is the atomic number.

4. Potassium

5. The mass number of an atom of an element is the combined number of protons and neutrons. So, if you subtract the number of protons—equal to the atomic number—from an atom’s mass number, the result is the number of neutrons present in the nucleus.

6. Hydrogen

7. 30

8. 17 protons, 18 neutrons, 17 electrons

Which of the following is not a valid conversion factor?
Snezhnost [94]
The last option, 1 meter/ 10 millimeters is not a valid conversion factor.

It should be 1000m Instead of 1 meter/ 10 millimeter since 1m=1000mm

A rock is found to contain 2.2 grams of uranium-235, a radioactive isotope. If the rock has undergone 2.75 half-lives, what was
Verizon [17]

Answer:

=14.8 grams

Explanation:

The remaining amount is normally calculated using the formula:

Remaining mass= 1/2ⁿ × Original mass where n is the number of half-lives.

Therefore, original mass= Remaining mass × 2ⁿ

Remaining mass= 2.2 grams

Number of half lives= 2.75 half lives

Original mass= 2.2g × 2²·⁷⁵

=14.8 grams

What is the percentage composition when 10g of magnesium combines with 4g of nitrogen?
Ivanshal [37]
The %  composition   when 10g of magnesium combine   with  4g of   nitrogen  is  71.43%   magnesium   and  28.57 %  nitrogen

               calculation

%
  composition  =  mass  of an element  / total mass  x100
mass  of magnesium = 10 g
mass of nitrogen  =  4g

calculate  the  total  mass  used

=  10g of  Magnesium  + 4 g of  nitrogen = 14 grams

%   composition for  magnesium  is therefore  =  10/14  x100 = 71.43 %

%  
composition  for  nitrogen  is therefore = 4 /14  x100  =   28.57 %
