Thus, it was found that the intestinal microbiota has approximately 100 trillion bacterial cells - about ten times more than the total number of cells in the human body.
an atom that has 18 protons, 18 neutrons and 20 neutrons. This atom has mass number of 38
mass number is calculated as number of protons + number on neutrons
therefore the mass number of the atom = 18+20= 38
Since the atom has a electronic configuration of 2.8.8,the atom cannot be negatively or positively charged because it is stable.
The atomic number of the atom is 18 since atomic number is equal to number of protons
