Answer:
question 1: 3
question 2: the number of Valence electrons in the atom
hope it helps
Answer:
The u (amu is the old unit name) is 1/12 of the weight of an 12C atom. The way the u is chosen ensures that all core and atom masses are multiples of 1(±0.1) u.
Explanation:
Further explanation if needed...
Carbon 12 was chosen because the chemical atomic weights based on C12 are almost identical to the chemical atomic weights based on the natural mix of oxygen. Simply because the atomic mass is defined as 1/12 of the mass of 12C. Others isotopes of carbon (13C mostly, with an abundance of 1.1% approximately) account for an average atomic mass slightly above 12.
Answer:
Both reactions are acid-base reactions
Explanation:
An acid base reaction is a reaction that occurs between an acid and a base. This reaction often leads to the formation of a salt in the process. The nature of the salt depends on the type of acid and base that reacted in the process.
Both HNO3 and H2SO4 are strong acids. However, ammonia is a weak base. The acid base reaction between ammonia and these strong acids is shown below;
HNO3(aq) + NH3(aq) ------>NH4NO3(aq)
H2SO4(aq) + 2NH3(aq) ----> (NH4)2SO4(aq)
