<span>B.by arranging the elements according to atomic number instead of atomic mass</span> awnser is B
The mass number is the summation of number of proton and neutron present in a nucleus of an atom. For the neutral atom the number of positive charge (number of proton) must be equal to the number of electrons. The number of electrons present in an atom is the atomic number of the atom. The standard way to express the mass number (a) and atomic number (m) of a atom (say X) is 
. Now for silicon number of electron or atomic number is 14. And the mass number (a) given 29. Thus the expression nucleus of silicon will be 
A substance that reduces the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution is <u>base</u>.
A base which thus completely dissociates in an aqueous solution is referred to as a strong base. These substances produce one or more hydroxide ions (OH-) per base molecule when they ionize in water. A weak base, on the other hand, only partially splits into its water-soluble ions.
The three definitions of "base" used in chemistry are Arrhenius base, Bronsted base, as well as Lewis base. The fact instead that bases react towards acids is acknowledged by all base definitions.
Therefore, a substance that reduces the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution is <u>base</u>.
