I can’t see the choices can you take another picture of this assignment please so i can help you
The nuclei of atoms also contain neutrons, which help hold the nucleus together. ... The total weight of an atom is called the atomic weight. It is approximately equal to the number of protons and neutrons, with a little extra added by the electrons.
The mass of a given atom, measured on a scale in which the hydrogen atom has the weight of one. Because most of the mass in an atom is in the nucleus, and each proton and neutron has an atomic weight near one, the atomic weight is very nearly equal to the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
Answer:
A. the atomic number
Explanation:
It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth.
Answer:
Metals have one or two electrons in their outermost shell
C. 1-2
Explanation:
- Metals have low ionisation energy because they easily looses the outermost electrons
- They have only one- two electrons in the outer most shell.
- They loose these electron to form charged species called cation.
