Answer:

B)

Explanation:

As stated in A): The number of protons in ANY element is the same.

But, the atomic mass may be different, and the reason for this, is a change in the number of <em>neutrons. </em>

C) is true, because the atomic mass of any atom is equal to the number of protons and neutrons.

D) is true, as said before: The number of protons in ANY element is the same. And the atomic number of any atom is equal to the number of protons.

suppose you need to build a raft to cross a fast-moving river. describe the physical and chemical properties of the raft that wo
alisha [4.7K]
Physical: the raft needs to float, which means what you make the raft out of must be less dense than water. 
The raft would need sturdiness- if the raft is frail, the water might break it
Chemical: It can not react with water and it can not be made of a completely soluable substance (something that would dissolve in it like salt)
