<span>I bet this is the notation used in nuclear reactions. The superscript represents the mass number while the subscript represents the atomic number of the element X. So, we find the element with an atomic number of 12. That would be Magnesium or Mg.</span>
Answer:
2. Na2O
Reasoning:
Na (soduim) is the only metal out of all the elements in the answer choices, and is bonded with oxygen, a nonmetal, therefore creating an ionic bond.
Answer:
The mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons. This means to find the number of neutrons you subtract the number of protons from the mass number. On the periodic table, the atomic number is the number of protons, and the atomic mass is the mass number.
Explanation:
Frenkel defect is a defect in crystalline solids in which an atom is displaced from its lattice position to an interstitial space. This creates a vacant space at the original site and an interstitial defect at the new site within the same element. This defect does not affect the chemical properties of the compound. This defect usually occur in ionic solids with large size difference between the anion and cation.
LiCl does not exhibit Frenkel defect because the size difference between the anion and the cation of the compound is very small.
Relative molecular mass or RMM is the answer.
