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.

KiRa [710]

Answer:

Helum (He)g will escape faster

Explanation:

the phenomemenon can be explained by the Graham's law of diffusion.

Graham's law of difussion states that the rate of difussion is inversely proportional to the square root of the molecular mass,which means the gas with lower molecular mass will escape faster.

Helium gas has a molecular mass of 4 while Neon has a molecular mass of 10.

rate of diffusion of He/rate of difussion of Ne=√4/10=√0.4=0.63

It means He(g) will move 0.63 times faster than Ne(g) under the same condition

WHAT ARE SOME POSSIBLE CONSEQUENCES IF A HUMAN BODY DOES NOT MAINTAIN<br> HOMEOSTASIS
BARSIC [14]

Answer: If homeostasis is disrupted, it must be controlled or a disease/disorder may result.

Explanation: What happens if there's disruption? Your body systems work together to maintain balance. If that balance is shifted or disrupted and homeostasis is not maintained, the results may not allow normal functioning of the organism.

How is the miscibility of two liquids related to their polarity?
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

The more polar the liquid, the more likely that it is miscible with water. The polarity of a liquid does not affect its miscibility with water. The less polar the liquid, the more likely that it is miscible with water. The more polar the liquid, the less likely that it is miscible with water.

The chart below shows examples of solids, liquids, gases, and plasma.
spin [16.1K]
The word that is in an incorrect place in the chart is HAIL.
The state of matter of hail is not plasma; hail is a solid at room temperature. Plasma refers to the state of matter in which an ionized gas have approximately equal number of positively and negatively charged ions. Thus, plasma is an ionized gas. Plasma is considered to be the fourth state of matter.  <span />
