Answer:

There would be 20 neutrons in that atom.

Explanation:

The mass number of an atom is the sum of:

  • the number of neutrons in this atom, and
  • the number of protons in this atom.

Electrons do not contribute to the mass number of an atom.

From the question:

  • Mass number of this atom: 39.
  • Number of protons in this atom: 19.

(\text{Mass Number}) = (\text{Number of protons}) + (\text{Number of neutrons}).

In this atom:

39 = 19 + (\text{Number of neutrons}).

Hence, the number of neutrons would be 39 - 19 = 20.

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Yes, the change in cuvette lead to a determinate error in the analysis if the different cuvette is used for the analysis because the amount of liquid sample that is used has different volume. If both cuvette are of the same type and has no difference in their structure and size then there is error occurs in the analysis but if both cuvette are different from one another then the error will occur in the analysis. because the amount of liquid that is used has different volume.

Under certain conditions,the solid and liquid states of water can exist in equilibrium. How are these conditions indicated on th
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
In a phase diagram that I have attached, the line marked in between ice and water (yellow and blue) is the conditions in which solid (ice) and liquid (Water) can coexist. As the graph shows, solid ice and liquid water coexist most when the temperature is zero, which should make sense since ice melts at 0, and water freezes as well at 0 degrees celsius.

What is the heaviest noble gas? <br><br> A.Helium<br> B.Radon<br> C.Fluorine<br> D.Astatine
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

                   Radon is the heaviest Noble Gas

Explanation:

                    This statement is very easy to be solved. As we know that Noble Gases are group of Elements which have complete valence shell and are stable elements and don't react easily and hence, are found in mono-atomic form in nature. These elements can be found on the extreme right of the periodic table in group 8 or group 18. Following are the Noble elements,

                             (i) Helium

                             (ii) Neon

                             (iii) Argon

                             (iv) Xenon

                             (v) Radon

Now,

In statement we are provided with only two noble gases i.e. Helium and Radon. Therefore, it is easy among them to finalize the heaviest one as Radon having atomic mass of 222.02 g/mol and atomic radii of 0.22 nm is much denser/heavier than Helium having atomic mass of 4.0 g/mol and atomic radii of 0.122 nm.
