The mass of an atom is the number of protons and neutrons in it (electrons are light enough to be ignored). To find the number of neutrons in the atom, subtract the number of protons from its mass (you can find its mass in a periodic table). The result is your answer.

<span>Mass Number = (Atomic Number) + (Number of Neutrons) so you solve for the Number of Neutrons and you get:
Number of Neutrons = (Mass number) - (Atomic Number) 

Mass Number equals protons plus neutrons, round atomic weight to nearest whole number
Atomic Number equals number of Protons</span>

What is difference between ∆H and ∆H°
Elena-2011 [213]

If it is shown as ∆H , then it means that a specific chemical reaction is undergoing heat in Kelvin(K). If it is shown as ∆H° , then it means that a specific chemical reaction is undergoing heat in Celsius(C⁰).

Hope this is the answer you are looking for mate!

If it is correct then please mark my answer as the brailiest! :)

What happens to energy from the sun that is neither reflected nor absorbed by the atmosphere
Valentin [98]

Energy from the sun that is neither reflected nor absorbed by the atmosphere passes through the atmosphere to the surface. The ozone layer absorbes most of the ultraviolet radiation, water vapor, and carbon dioxide absorbs infared radiation, clouds, dust, and other gases also absorb energy.

Identify the products in the equation below (the “I” is Iodine—to differentiate capital “I” from lowercase “l”)
Inessa [10]

Answer : The products are Silver sulfide, (Ag_2S) and Sodium iodide, (NaI).

Explanation :

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

2AgI+Na_2S\rightarrow Ag_2S+2NaI

From the given balanced reaction, we conclude that the 2 moles of silver iodide react with the 1 mole of sodium sulfide to give product as 1 mole of silver sulfide and 2 moles of sodium iodide.

In a chemical reaction, reactants are represent on the left side of the right-arrow and products are represent on the right side of the right-arrow.

Therefore, in a chemical reaction the products are Silver sulfide and Sodium iodide.

`Let's just consider the concept of stoichiometry without any confusing chemicals. Here is a generic equation: 2A + 6B ? 3C. If
lesya [120]

Answer:

Option D. 5.5

Explanation:

The equation is this:

2A + 6B  ⇒  3C

With the amounts that we were given, let's determine which is the <em>limting reactant</em>

2 A reacts with 6 B

4 A will react with ( 4 .6)/2 = 12B

I have 11 B, so the limiting is B

6 B react with 2 A

11 B will react with (11 .2 )/6 =3.66 A

I have 4 A, so A is the excess.

6 B produce 3 C

11 B will produce ( 11 .3)/6 = 5.5C
