The mass number of an element is equivalent to the number of Protons and Neutrons in the element. For example Oxygen has eight protons and neutrons, therefore its mass number is 16. You could also calculate this by simply rounding the atomic weight of the element to the nearest whole number. Oxygen's atomic weight is 15.994, which as you can see, would be rounded to 16 :)

Which of the following is NOT a positive affects of a nation comparative advantage on international trade?
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer: D) eliminates the need for trade with other nations

Explanation:

Having comparative advantage on the production of a good or service means that a country can produce that good or service cheaper and be able to exchange it for other goods and services that other countries are offering.

International trade is therefore very important to countries acting on comparative advantage because the country will not produce all that it needs but rather what it is good at producing. This means that trade with other countries is still needed to provide those goods that they need but find it expensive to produce.

¿Cómo se originan y como están compuestos el petróleo, el gas y el carbón?
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Tanto el carbón como el petróleo son combustibles fósiles. Eso significa que están formados a partir de materia orgánica, cosas que estaban vivas en la Tierra hace millones de años, que estaban cubiertas por pesadas capas de roca. Con el tiempo, el aumento de la presión y el calor resultante de la roca suprayacente transformó la materia descompuesta en carbón o petróleo.
