An atom or ion has 41 neutrons, 36 protons, and 36 electrons. Identify the element symbol, and determine the mass number
1 answer:
Answer:
Element symbol: Kr.
Mass number: 77.
Charge : 0.
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, since such substance has the same amount of protons and electrons we can infer it is an atom whose number of neutrons is defined by considering its atomic mass or mass number and atomic number which is actually equal to the number of protons and electrons (36):
In such a way, solving for the atomic mass we obtain:
It means that the element is krypton (Kr) as it has 36 electrons and protons so its charge is 0.
Best regards.

Explanation:
A point of temperature at which both solid and liquid state of a substance remains in equilibrium without any change in temperature then this temperature is known as melting point.
For example, melting point of water is . So, at this temperature solid state of water and liquid state are present in equilibrium with each other.
Therefore, when a 100 g of given pure metal in solid state is heated at its exact melting point which is then some of the solid will change into liquid state but the temperature will remains the same.
