You can find the atomic number by subtracting the atomic mass by the number of neutrons.

Mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons.

Atomic number is the total number of protons present.

Mass number = protons + neutrons

Atomic number = protons present.

From the above equations we can conclude that,

Atomic number= Mass number- neutrons.

Thus we can find out the atomic number by subtracting the number of neutrons from the mass number.

Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and elemental sodium (Na)
Olegator [25]

Answer:

If the question is which can make a buffer, then NH3, NH4Cl should be correct. Because Ammonium (NH4) is conjugate acid of NH3 so they can form an equilibrium which is basically a buffer whose purpose is to resist pH change.

ICl has a higher boiling point than Br2. What is the best explanation for this?
Flura [38]
<span>The best answer is B. ICl experiences induced dipole-induced dipole interactions. Both iodine and chlorine belongs to the same group of the periodic table. Electronegativity decreases as you go down a group therefore Cl will have a greater attraction with the bond it forms with another atom. Dipole-dipole interactions form between I and Cl. For the Br2 molecule, no dipole occurs because they are two identical atoms. Therefore we will be expecting ICl will have a higher boiling point due to higher binding energy it forms.</span>

The temperature of a sample of water changes from 10°C to 20°C when the water absorbs 100 calories of heat. What is the mass of
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

10 g

Explanation:

Right from the start, just by inspecting the values given, you can say that the answer will be  

10 g

.

Now, here's what that is the case.

As you know, a substance's specific heat tells you how much heat is needed to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of that substance by  

1

∘

C

.

Water has a specific heat of approximately  

4.18

J

g

∘

C

. This tells you that in order to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of water by  

1

∘

C

, you need to provide  

4.18 J

of heat.

Now, how much heat would be required to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of water by  

10

∘

C

?

Well, you'd need  

4.18 J

to increase it by  

1

∘

C

, another  

4.18 J

to increase it by another  

1

∘

C

, and so on. This means that you'd need

4.18 J

×

10

=

41.8 J

to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of water by  

10

∘

C

.

Now look at the value given to you. If you need  

41.8 J

to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of water by  

10

∘

C

, what mass of water would require  

10

times as much heat to increase its temperature by  

10

∘

C

?

1 g

×

10

=

10 g

And that's your answer.

Mathematically, you can calculate this by using the equation

q

=

m

⋅

c

⋅

Δ

T

 

, where

q

- heat absorbed/lost

m

- the mass of the sample

c

- the specific heat of the substance

Δ

T

- the change in temperature, defined as final temperature minus initial temperature

Plug in your values to get

418

J

=

m

⋅

4.18

What was Newtons first law of motion??
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Basically an object in motion or at rest will remain that way unless an outside force acts against it.

Explanation:

Newton's first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force. This is normally taken as the definition of inertia.
