Answer:

the mass number

Explanation:

Isotopes are numerous forms of one single element. In simple terms, atomic weights are different for the isotopes. Isotopes refer to the atoms that have the same number of protons but different neutron numbers. The physical properties of the isotopes vary because these properties also based on mass. These variations can be used to distinguish isotopes of an element from each other by applying methods such as fractional distillation and diffusion.

Answer:

                     Mass = 11.78 g of P₄

Explanation:

                     The balance chemical equation is as follow:

                                          6 Sr + P4 → 2 Sr₃P₂

Step 1: Calculate moles of Sr as;

Moles = Mass / M/Mass

Moles = 50.0 g / 87.62 g/mol

Moles = 0.570 moles

Step 2: Find moles of P₄ as;

According to equation,

6 moles of Sr reacted with  =  1 mole of P₄

So,

0.570 moles of Sr will react with  =  X moles of P₄

Solving for X,

X = 1 mol × 0.570 mol / 6 mol

X = 0.0952 mol of P₄

Step 3: Calculate mass of P₄ as,

Mass = Moles × M.Mass

Mass = 0.0952 mol × 123.89 g/mol

Mass = 11.78 g of P₄
