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

Answer:

It is because the object that is charged attracts the uncharged because it is giving electrons and passing it on to the object. As shown in the image the balloon is attracting the paper that is not charged. Actually telling,the charged object will cause the uncharged object to become charged, with a positive charge on one side and a negative charge on the other side. This process is called induction.

In which substance does sharing of electrons between two atoms occur?
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

A. SO4 2−

Explanation:

                           SO₄²⁻

A covalent bond is a bond that forms from sharing of electrons between two atoms. Here, the two atoms combined must have a very low electronegative difference between them, usually 0. Electronegativity deals with the tendency of an atom to attract electrons to itself.

Oxygen and sulfur shows similar tendencies. Since the two atoms shows a strong affinity for their valence electrons in order to complete the octet. This will lead to the eventual sharing of the valence electrons.
