Answer:

The atomic weight of an atom is the sum of its protons and neutrons

Explanation:

The weight of an atom is dominated by the amount of matter contained in the dense and tiny nucleus of an atom. In the nucleus, protons and neutrons are found. Protons are massive nuclear particles that are positively charge. Neutrons are also massive and they carry no charges.

The atomic weight is given as the sum of the protons and neutrons. Electrons have little to no weight.

Which best explains why this extrusive volcanic rock does not have visible crystals
GalinKa [24]
Extrusive volcanic rocks are formed on the surface of the earth and cool relatively quickly from lava erupted from a volcano. The rapid cooling of lava on the surface does not allow for visible crystals to form. The crystals are minute and most can only be seen under a microscope. Basalt is an example of an extrusive igneous rock.

Intrusive igneous rocks are formed when magma cools within the crust. This magma cools slowly and so crystals develop in these rocks. Granite is an intrusive igneous rock.
