Hello There!
To work out neutrons you have to subtract the atomic number from the mass.
Mass = 208
Atomic number = 83
Neutrons = Mass - Atomic Number
Neutrons = 208 - 83
Neutrons = 125.
It has 125 neutrons.
Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

Plants and minerals
Plants need to take in a number of elements to stay alive.
The most important are:
•Carbon
•Hydrogen
•Oxygen
Plants get hydrogen and oxygen from water in the soil, and carbon and oxygen from carbon dioxide and oxygen in the atmosphere. Water and carbon dioxide are used to synthesise food during photosynthesis.
Oxygen is used to release energy from food during respiration.
In addition to these three elements, plants need a number of minerals for healthy growth. These are absorbed through the roots as mineral ions dissolved in the soil water.
Two important mineral ions needed by plants are:
Nitrate - for making amino acids, which are needed to make proteins
Magnesium - for making chlorophyll
If a plant does not get enough minerals, its growth will be poor. It will suffer from deficiency symptoms:
Deficient in nitrate - it will suffer from stunted growth
Deficient in magnesium - its leaves will turn yellow.
Answer: D. They are made up of hard spheres that are in random motion.
Explanation:
A gas is a <u>state of aggregation of matter</u> in which, under certain conditions of temperature and pressure, <u>its molecules interact weakly with each other, without forming molecular bonds</u>, adopting the shape and volume of the container that contains them and tending to separate everything possible because of its <u>high concentration of kinetic energy</u>.
The molecules of a gas are practically <u>free</u> and have the ability to be distributed throughout the space in which they are contained because <u>the gravitational forces and attraction between them are practically negligible</u> compared to the speed at which they move. .
Therefore, gas molecules do not travel specific trajectories or vibrate in a stationary position, instead <u>they move quickly and randomly through the entire space of the container that contains them.</u>
Waters freezing point in Celsius is 0 and 273.15 Kelvin (or 273 rounded to a whole number.
Answer:
Quality Assurance
The first law of thermodynamics states that the change in the internal energy of a system equals the net heat transfer into the system minus the net work done by the system. This is another way of saying that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but it can be converted from one form to another form.
A tea kettle that is warmed on an electric stove is receiving heat energy, this heat energy increases the kinetic energy of the water particles in the kettle and makes them to move faster. As time goes on, the water begins to turn into vapors. The heat energy that is released into the system is been used to carry out the work of evaporation and the whistling of the kettle.
