Which way does equilibrium shift
Natali [406]
You can use Le Chatelier's Principle to describe the equilibrium shift.

Le Chaterlier's Principle states that: "<span>If a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the conditions, the position of equilibrium moves to counteract the change."

Thus, if you heat up the reaction, the equilibrium shift favors the endothermic reaction. If you increase pressure (if gases are involved), the shift favors the reaction that produces less gaseous products (to counteract pressure) and so on.</span>

1. An atom of an elephant has atomic mass of 39 and has number of neutrons as 20 calculate protons number.
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

1) Let us recall that;

Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

Where;

Number of protons = ?

Number of neutrons =20

Mass number =39

Number of protons = mass number - number of neutrons

Mass of protons =39 - 20= 19 protons

2) Atomic number = 13

Number of neutrons =14

Then the mass number =13 +14 =27

The symbol of the element is 27X13

The number of protons= the number of electrons =13

The atomic number is the same as the proton number =13
