Answer:
the number of neutrons in an atom of the element is 10.
Explanation:
neutron: mass # -protons
neutron: 19 (18.9984 (rounded)) - 9
neutron: 19- 9 =10
whole number is equal to the number of protons.
Answer:
We typically represent covalent bonds with a dash ( - ) between the atoms. This indicates a single bond. Ex: Cl - Cl
Single bond, double bond, triple bond.
Explanation:
We call it a single covalent bond because the atoms are sharing a single pair of electrons.

Answer:
B. Na
Explanation:
Once balanced you get 2Na + Cl₂ ⇒ 2NaCl. Sodium is the limiting reagent because it would produce the smallest amount of the product (NaCl)–while chlorine is the excess reagent. Based off of the Na in the balanced equation, it would produce 3 moles of NaCl, and for Cl₂ it would produce an excess of 6 moles of NaCl. [It'd be wise to utilize stoichiometric factors to get a good grasp of this]
