<h2>
Answer: # of neutrons = 9</h2>
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
# of neutrons = mass number - atomic number
= 17 - 8
= 9
<h3>∴ number of neutrons in an atom of oxygen of mass number 17, is 9.</h3>
Our bodies digest the food we eat by mixing it with fluids (acids and enzymes) in the stomach. When the stomach digests food, the carbohydrate (sugars and starches) in the food breaks down into another type of sugar, called glucose.
I'm curious on what it is but I wish I could help

By the stoichiometry of this reaction if 5 mol natrium react, then 2.5 mol

So what have I done here? First, I had a balanced chemical equation (this is the important step; is it balanced?). Then I used the stoichiometry to get the molar quantity of product, and converted this molar quantity to mass. If this is not clear, I am willing to have another go
The volume of H₂ : = 15.2208 L

Given
Reaction
2 As (s) + 6 NaOH (aq) → 2 Na₃AsO₃ (s) + 3 H₂ (g)
34.0g of As
Required
The volume of H₂ at STP
Solution
mol As (Ar = 75 g/mol) :
= mass : Ar
= 34 g : 75 g/mol
= 0.453 mol
From the equation, mol ratio As : H₂ = 2 : 3, so mol H₂ :
=3/2 x mol As
=3/2 x 0.453
= 0.6795
At STP, 1 mol = 22.4 L, so :
= 0.6795 x 22.4 L
= 15.2208 L
