Answer: 68

Explanation:

Isotopes of an element have same number of protons but different number of neutrons. Which means isotopes of an element have same atomic number but different mass number.

Atomic number is equal to the number of protons or the number of electrons for a neutral atom and is specific to a particular element.

Mass number is the sum of number of protons and the number of neutrons.

Given : atomic number of element Q = 68 = number of protons

Mass number of isotope Q-136 = 136

But as isotopes have same atomic number, the number of protons will be same and hence there are 68 protons are in a neutral atom of this isotope.

The total number of valence electrons is 20.(1 from hydrogen, 5 from nitrogen, and 7 from each fluorine so 14 for both) connect all the atoms with a single bond( each bond counts as 2) so far there is 6 electrons so you need to fill in the rest of the 14 and you get the result in the picture.

Studentka2010 [4]

Reaction type : Double-Replacement reactions

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

MgCl2 + Li2CO3 → MgCO3 + LiCl

Required

Balanced equation

Reaction type

Solution

Balanced equation

Li2CO3 (s) + MgCl2 (aq) → MgCO3 (s) + 2 LiCl (aq)

Double-Replacement reactions. Happens if there is an ion exchange between two ion compounds in the reactant to form two new ion compounds in the product  

To predict whether this reaction can occur or not is one of them, the precipitation reaction.

MgCO3 is a precipitation compound
