Answer: protons and neutrons.
The nucleus is made up of 3 subatomic particles that are protons,neutrons and electrons.
General notation of an element is 
where, X is the Element, A is the Atomic Mass and Z is the Atomic Number
If we know the number of protons we can easily find out the atomic number of any element because Atomic Number = Number of protons in an element.
And in addition if we know the number of neutrons we can easily find out the atomic mass of an element because
Atomic Mass = (Number of protons) + (Number of neutrons)
If we get to know the atomic number and atomic mass, we can easily tell what element is it by looking from the periodic table.
It is advisable not to wash the thermometer and hot water because it made cause the thermometer to break and mercury to leak out from it... it can also damage the accuracy of the thermometer
Answer:
heat energy is released into the surrounding
Explanation:
For the given reaction:
Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

![Rate=k[CO]^x[H_2]^y](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Rate%3Dk%5BCO%5D%5Ex%5BH_2%5D%5Ey)
where x and y are order wrt to
and 
According to collision theory , the molecules must collide for a reaction to take place. According to collision theory , the rate of a reaction is proportional to rate of collision of reactants.
Thus with an increase in concentration of reactants , the rate of reaction also increases. This is because if the concentration of reactants increases , the chances of collision between molecules also increases and thus more products wil be formed which in turn increases the rate of reaction.
