The number of protons, neutrons and electrons an atom has determines what element it is. Hydrogen, for example, has one proton, no neutrons and one electron; the element sulfur has 16 protons, 16 neutrons and 16 electrons.

Only the number of protons determine the type of atom. Elements can have more or less neutrons and electrons and still be the same general type of element.

Calculate the mass of chromium produced from 5 tonnes of Cr2O3-
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Cr₂O₃ ( chromium oxide )

Mass of Cr₂O₃⁻ = 2 x 52 + 3 x 16 = 104 + 48 = 152

152 gram chromium oxide contains 104 grams chromium

152 tonnes chromium oxide contains 104 tonnes chromium

5 tonnes chromium oxide contains 104 x 5 / 152 tonnes chromium

mass of chromium required =  104 x 5 / 152 tonnes

= 3.42 tonnes .
