How do you figure out the number of electrons, neutrons, and protons of an element by only being given the mass?

Well there is the same amount of electrons as protons and if you add the number of protons and neutrons together you get the atomic number.
the number of protons is roughly half that of the atomic number but not all the time so i dont know how to find it just from the atomic mass but if you have a periodic table you can look at the atomic mass and find which element it is and then do it from there also the atomic mass is the bottom numbers the protons are the top numbers of the atom in like 2

Neither n2 nor o2 are greenhouse gases because
Katyanochek1 [597]

Neither N₂ or O₂ are greenhouses gases because they do not cause the greenhouse effect.

<h3>What are greenhouses gases?</h3>

Greenhouse gases trap heat in the atmosphere causing the temperature of the planet to rise.

Greenhouse gases cause the greenhouse effect.

<h3>What is the greenhouse effect?</h3>

The greenhouse effect is the warming up of the planet due to greenhouse gases.

Greenhouse gases include

  • carbondioxide
  • methane
  • nitrous oxide and
  • water vapour

So, neither N₂ or O₂ are greenhouses gases because they do not cause the greenhouse effect.

Identify the intermolecular attractions for dimethyl ether and for ethyl alcohol. Which molecule is expected to be more soluble
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

All molecules possess the London dispersion forces. However London dispersion forces is the only kind of intermolecular interaction that exists in nonpolar substances.

So, the only kind of intermolecular interaction that exists in dimethyl ether is London dispersion forces.

As for ethyl alcohol, the molecule is polar due to the presence of polar O-H bond. In addition to London dispersion forces, dipole-dipole interactions and specifically hydrogen bonding also occurs between the molecules.

Because ethyl alcohol is polar, it is more soluble in water than dimethyl ether.
