26, protons and nuetrons will always be the same
Answer:
The 3rd answer down.
Na²O (sodium oxide) will be a base when exposed to water H²O
Explanation:
Sodium Oxide Na²O, will become Sodium Hydroxide after being exposed to water (at 80% I believe).
The oxygen ion in Na²O has 2 extra electrons which makes it highly charged and very attractive to hydrogen ions. The attraction is so strong that when Na²O comes in contact with H²O, the O(-2) strips off a hydrogen from water, forming 2 x OH ions which of course are still strongly basic.
Answer:
atomic mass= 33
Charge= -2
Explanation:
In an atom, are contained three SUBATOMIC particles viz: proton and neutron found in the nucleus, electrons surrounding the nucleus. Protons contain the positive charge of an atom while electrons contain the negative charge of an atom. The number of protons and electrons in an atom determines the charge of an ion (charged atom). Also, the atomic mass or mass number of that atom is got by adding the number of protons + number of neutrons.
In this case where the number of protons and number of neutrons are 16 and 17 respectively, the mass no. or atomic mass is 17 + 16 = 33.
Also, since two electrons are gained by this atom, it means the electron numbe, which is normally equal to the proton number in a neutral atom, will be increased by 2. Hence, the electron number will be 18 in this case.
The charge of the atom= no. of protons - no. of electrons = 16 - 18 = -2.
