Explanation:
As we know that sum of only total number of protons are also known as atomic number of an atom. And, the sum of total number of protons and neutrons is known as atomic mass of an atom.
Number of protons help in determining the identity of an atom whereas the number of neutrons can be same for two or more number of atoms. But the number of protons will remain the same for a particular atom and for its isotopes.
For example, tex]^{1}_{1}H[/tex] and 
are isotopes and each of them contains 1 proton.
thus, we can conclude that the number of protons in their nuclei would allow you to determine whether two atoms are of the same or different elements.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Applying law of electrostatic which states that like charges repel each other and unlike charges attract each other
N and S are unlike charges that turn and make the former repulsive force (due to two like charges N and N)to <em>reduce</em> and attractive force between N and S to <em>increa</em><em>se</em>
The amount
per 100 g is:
38.7 %
calcium = 38.7g Ca / 100g compound = 38.7g
19.9 %
phosphorus = 19.9g P / 100g compound = 19.9g
41.2 %
oxygen = 41.2g O / 100g compound = 41.2g
The molar amounts of calcium,
phosphorus and oxygen in 100g sample are calculated by dividing each element’s
mass by its molar mass:
Ca = 38.7/40.078
= 0.96
P = 19.9/30.97
= 0.64
O = 41.2/15.99
= 2.57
C0efficients
for the tentative empirical formula are derived by dividing each molar amount
by the lesser value that is 0.64 and in this case, after that multiply wih 2.
Ca = 0.96 /
0.64 = 1.5=1.5 x 2 = 3
P = 0.64 /
0.64 = 1 = 1x2= 2
O = 2.57 /
0.64 = 4= 4x2= 8
Since, the
resulting ratio is calcium 3, phosphorus 2 and oxygen 8
<span>So, the
empirical formula of the compound is Ca</span>₃(PO₄)₂
