An atom of Oxygen. Contains:

Protons = 8
Electrons = 8

Neutrons = Mass number - Number of protons = 18 - 8 = 10

Neutrons = 10.

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Electrons- 95

Protons- 95

Neutrons-146

Explanation:

An atoms is made up of three fundamental particles; electrons, protons and neutrons,

Americium belongs to the f block in the periodic table. It is an actinide element.

2zns(s)+3o2(g)—>2zno(s)+2so2(g)
Paha777 [63]

This is an example of displacement reaction

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The chemical reaction in which the one element replaces the other element in a compound is called a displacement reaction. This reaction is also called a replacement reaction.

                                AB + C -----> AC +B

                        2ZnS + 3O2 -----> 2ZnO + 2SO2

  • This happens when A is more reactive than B and gives a stable product. Here the zinc sulfide compound reacts with the oxygen element to the stable product of zinc oxide and sulfur dioxide.
  • In short, the more reactive element displaces the less reactive element is called a displacement reaction.

Comment on whether each of the following is a homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture: (a) air in a closed bottle, (b) ai
Colt1911 [192]

Explanation:

A mixture in which there is uniform distribution of solute particles into the solvent is known as a homogeneous mixture.

For example, sugar dissolved in water is a homogeneous mixture.

On the other hand, a mixture in which there is uneven distribution of solute particles into the solvent is known as a heterogeneous mixture.

For example, sand present in water is a heterogeneous mixture.

Comment on given situations will be as follows.

(a)   Air in a closed bottle - It is a homogeneous mixture because there will be even distribution of other gases that are present in air.

(b)   Air over New York City - It is a heterogeneous mixture because there will be presence of some dust particles, fog or smoke into the air. Distribution of all these particles will be uneven. This will make air over New York City heterogeneous in nature.
