Answer:
6 neutrons. The mass number is the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. The atomic number shows how many protons. Subract the atomic number from the mass number to find the number of neutrons.
Explanation:
The atomic number of H2O is 18 hence it contains 18 protons. Hope this helps.
The total mass of the products is 10.76 g + 204.44 g = 215.20 g.
The masses of all the reactants but one are known so,
215.20 g - 120.00 g - 8.15 g - 75.00 g = 12.05 g
12.05 g is the mass of the unweighed barium nitrate.
Answer:
C. If Assertion is true statement but Reason is false.
Explanation:
The burning of magnesium in air produces magnesium oxide as shown by the equation;
2Mg(s) + O2(g) -----> 2MgO(s)
The magnesium oxide solid is recovered as a white ash. This is a typical example of an oxidation reaction which is also a combustion reaction.
The reason has nothing at all to do with the assertion hence the answer given.
Magnesium oxide is basic just like the oxides of other metals and dissolves in water to yield an alkali.
