Answer: 68.
Explanation:
The atomic number is the number that idenfities an element.
The atomic number is the number of protons of an element.
Every element has a different number of protons.
The elements are arranged in the periodic table as per their atomic number (number of protons).
The first element is hydrogen (H), its atomic number is 1, and it has 1 proton.
The second element is helium (He), its atomic number is 2 (it has 2 protons)-
Those two elements form the first period (row) of the periodic table.
The second row (period) has the elements Li, Be, B, C, N, O, F and Ne, whose respective atomic numbers (number of protons are) 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, respectively.
And so, you may idenfity each of the 118 elements known, with a different atomic number (number of protons).
Atoms are electrically neutral because the number of protons, which carry a 1+ charge, in the nucleus of an atom is equal to the number of electrons, which carry a 1- charge, in the atom. The result is that the total positive charge of the protons cancels out the total negative charge of the electrons so that the net charge of the atom is zero. Most atoms, however, can either gain or lose electrons; when they do so, the number of electrons becomes different from the number of protons in the nucleus. The resulting charged species is called an ion.
Answer:
160 gm
Explanation:
Five times as much water means you can dissolve 5 times as much potassium nitrate 5 x 32 = 160 gm <u> <===== this seems unlikely though as I doubt 32 g of potassium nitrate will dissolve in only 1 cm^3 of water 1 cm^3 of water is only 1 gm of water </u>
