Atomic Number = amount of protons. Atomic mass = protons (7) and neutrons (8)
Electrons will be the protons - any charge the isotope has. For example, a +2 charge would make the electrons 7- (+2) = 5. A -2 charge would be electrons 7 - (-2) = 9
Because even though the moon is smaller, therefore a weaker gravitational pull, the moon is much closer to the earth than the sun, thus having a greater gravitational pull
Both the technician are correct.
All the driving force in the universe always flow from the higher body to lower body, until unless acted by external forces. Which means heat always flow from a hotter body to colder body, high pressure always flow to low pressure.
Therefore the both the technician are correct.
