Answer:8

Explanation:

Atomic number = 8

Mass number = 18

The number of protons and the number of electrons is equal to the atomic number.

The number of neutrons in the nucleus is given by the difference in mass number and atomic number.

So, number of protons are 8

number of electrons = 8

number of neutrons = 18 - 8 = 10

Answer:

2 H₃PO₄(aq) + 3 Ba(OH)₂(aq) ⇒ Ba₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6 H₂O(l)

Explanation:

Let's consider the unbalanced equation that occurs when phosphoric acid reacts with barium hydroxide to form water and barium phosphate. This is a neutralization reaction.

H₃PO₄(aq) + Ba(OH)₂(aq) ⇒ Ba₃(PO₄)₂(s) + H₂O(l)

We will balance it using the trial and error method.

First, we will balance Ba atoms by multiplying Ba(OH)₂ by 3 and P atoms by multiplying H₃PO₄ by 2.

2 H₃PO₄(aq) + 3 Ba(OH)₂(aq) ⇒ Ba₃(PO₄)₂(s) + H₂O(l)

Finally, we will get the balanced equation by multiplying H₂O by 6.

2 H₃PO₄(aq) + 3 Ba(OH)₂(aq) ⇒ Ba₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6 H₂O(l)

Burning gas on a stovetop transforms chemical energy into what other types of energy?
svp [43]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Burning gas on a stove top transforms chemical energy into thermal energy.</em>  

<u>Explanation:</u>

Cooking food involves in two types of energies. <em>They are chemical energy and thermal energy. </em>

We use gas for a gas stove.Here gas is chemical energy.when we light the stove the fire lits up and here the <em>chemical energy energy is converted into thermal energy.</em>

Breaking and combining of bonds during combustion gives heat and light.This thermal energy heats the vessels and cooks the food through the <em>process of conduction, convection and radiation. </em>
