Answer:

The atomic mass of an atom is the number of protons plus neutrons.

Fact: In case you get it confused with atomic number, atomic number is the number of protons in the atom.

Explanation: It could have been electrons plus neutrons since electrons equals protons but electrons aren't stable which is why it is protons and neutrons.

The following reaction shows sodium carbonate reacting with calcium hydroxide.
velikii [3]

Ans: 15.1 grams

Given reaction:

Na2CO3 + Ca(OH)2 → 2NaOH + CaCO3

Mass of Na2CO3 = 20.0 g

Molar mass of Na2CO3 = 105.985 g/mol

# moles of Na2CO3 = 20/105.985 = 0.1887 moles

Based on the reaction stoichiometry: 1 mole of Na2CO3 produces 2 moles of NaOH

# moles of NaOH produced = 0.1887*2 = 0.3774 moles

Molar mass of NaOH = 22.989 + 15.999 + 1.008 = 39.996 g/mol

Mass of NaOH produced = 0.3774*39.996 = 15.09 grams
