Why don’t all of the particles in an atom contribute to the mass?

Chemistry
1 answer:
kotegsom [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The mass of an atom is dependent on its number of protons and neutrons. Electrons have mass, but are too light in comparison to protons and neutrons to contribute towards the overall mass. Their relative mass is about 1/1840 compared to 1 for protons and neutrons, and therefore are not counted in the mass.

Hope this helped!

can anyone explain to me how to balance a chemical equation? im having trouble in understanding how i keep getting it wrong.
Virty [35]
For example we are going to use this unbalanced chemical reaction:
H₂ + O₂ → H₂O.
First, calculate number of atoms (hydrogens and oxygens) on left and right. There is two oxygen and two hydrogen on left and two hydrogen and one oxygen on right.
You can not change molecular formula of compound, only you can put coefficient in fron of compound to balance reaction.
Put 2 in front water to balance oxygen (now you have two oxygens on left and right). But now you have four hydrogens on right, so you must put 2 in fron hydrogen on the left.
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O.
