How do we get mass number

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vinil7 [7]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

The mass number of an element's atom is gotten by adding the number of protons and neutrons of the atom. Electrons have negligible mass compared to the protons and neutrons hence do not matter. The mass of a nuclear particle ( protons and the neutrons) is based on the 1/12 mass of carbon which is used as the standard for getting the mass of other elements.

If an element has isotopes the relative mass of the element is gotten by adding all the atomic mass numbers of the isotopes and dividing the sum by the number of isotopes.

Why is this flower able to self-pollinate
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

A flower is self-pollinated if pollen is transferred to it from any flower of the same plant and cross-pollinated if the pollen comes from a flower on a different plant.

Explanation:

This is because each flower is capable of fertilizing itself by autogamy. Autogamy means that the male part of a flower sends pollen to the female part of the same flower.

Which of the following pairs consists of a weak acid and a strong base? (1 point)
notka56 [123]

Answer:

acetic acid, sodium hydroxide

Explanation:

A strong acid is an acid that ionizes in water to give all its hydrogen ion. Weak acid only ionize to a certain degree. Acetic acid (CH3COOH) only ionize to give one hydrogen ion despite having other hydrogen atom. This account for its weak nature as an acid as shown below:

CH3COOH <=> H^+ + CH3COO^-

A strong base is a base that ionizes in water to give all it hydroxide ion. Sodium hydroxide(NaOH) ionizes to give all its hydroxide ions. This make it a strong base as shown below;

NaOH <=> Na^+ + OH^-

Please help on the questions that is left blank!! Due soon and will mark brainliest
34kurt

Answer: The strength of an acid or alkali depends on the degree of dissociation of the acid or alkali in water. The degree of dissociation measures the percentage of acid molecules that ionise when dissolved in water. He could use universal indicators or litmus paper for this.

i hope this helps you!
