The two atoms shown in the equation are CALCIUM and oxygen.
<span>You start off with a neutral calcium atom with a shell of two electrons, a shell of 8 around that, a shell of 8 around that, and a shell containing 2...with no charge. </span>
<span>20 protons + 20 electrons. </span>
<span>You also have an oxygen atom with a shell of 2, and a shell of 6...with no charge. </span>
<span>8 protons + 8 electrons. </span>
<span>Each ionizes to form a calcium ion with 2 electrons removed (from the outer shell), leaving a +2 charge (20 protons, 18 electrons)... </span>
<span>and an oxygen ion with 2 electrons added (to the outer shell), leaving a -2 charge (8 protons, 10 electrons). </span>
<span>Their electrostatic attraction causes them to come together to form an ionic compound of CaO in a crystal lattice.</span>
To determine a planet's mass, astronomers typically measure the minuscule movement of the star caused by the gravitational tug of an orbiting planet. For planets the massof Earth detecting such a tiny tug is extraordinarily challenging with current technology

Answer: In equation of reaction nitrogen N2 is formed instead of O2
Formula of nitroglycerin is C3H5(NO3)3
Number for N2 is 12. Thus one mole nitroglycerin produces 3 moles N2
Explanation:
answer:
atomic number
the same chemical element is characterized by the number of protons in the nucleus that determines the total positive charge.
