<u>Answer:</u> The element is Fluorine.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or electrons that are present in a neutral atom.

Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons

Atomic mass is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom.

Atomic mass = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

We are given:

Number of protons = 9 = Atomic number

Number of electrons = 9

Number of neutrons = 10

Mass number = 9 + 10 = 19

The element having atomic number equal to 9 and mass number equal to 19 is fluorine.

Hence, the element is Fluorine.

The correct answer is C.  We know this is true since the number of protons an atom has is its atomic number.  Since this atom  has 9 protons, look for the element on the periodic table that has an atomic number of 9.  The element that has an atomic number of 9 is flouring.

I hope this helps.

Which symbol can be used to indicate the pressure at which a chemical reaction is carried out? 25 degrees Celsius over a right a
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

2 atm

Explanation:

Chemical reactions are carried out at a certain rate. Sometimes that rate is quite slow, so we want to speed things up, which is usually used by increasing temperature, increasing pressure or adding a catalyst (a substance that increases the rate without changing itself).

If this is the case, then, when writing a chemical equation, we state these special conditions over a right arrow.

Now let's look at the answers:

- 25°C is a value and unit of temperature

- ∆ is a symbol that denotes change

- 2 atm is a value and unit of pressure (atmosphere is old unit for pressure)

- Pt is a chemical symbol for platinum, an element often used as a catalyst.

So, the correct answer is C) 2 atm
