Answer is the mass of the atom. Protons + neutrons= mass
Let's say you have oxygen with a mass of 16.
Oxygen has 8 protons
To find neutrons subtract 16-8= 8
So it would also be 8 neutrons.
Example of how to find mass if you know protons + neutrons:
Sodium has 11 protons and 12 neutrons. Add the protons and neutrons
11 + 12= 23
Mass is 23

What is meant by the ground state of an atom? What is meant by the ground state of an atom? All of the quantum numbers have thei
ANTONII [103]

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

We know that ground state means in total electrons acquired by the element are present in their lowest energy level.

We calculate the azimutal numbers as follows.

                      n = l + 1

where,     n = principle quantum number  

                l = azimuthal quantum number

Values of n can be 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on. Whereas the values of l can be 0, 1, 2, 3, and so on.

Also, "m" is known as magnetic quantum number whose values can be equal to -l and +l.  

So, when n = 1 then l = 0 and m = 0.

When n = 2 then l = 1 and values of m will be equal to -1, 0, +1. As it is given that the magnetic quantum number ml = -1. Hence, it is only possible when n = 2.

And, n = 1 is the lowest energy level. Therefore, we can conclude that the ground state of an atom means all of the quantum numbers have their lowest values (n = 1,ℓ = mℓ = 0).
