Answer:
Electrons move around a nucleus.
Explanation:
Answer is: the amu of a sodium atom is 23.
The unified atomic mass unit (amu) is a standard unit of atom mass.
One unified atomic mass unit is approximately the mass of one nucleon (proton or neutron).
The unified atomic mass unit is equal 1.66·10⁻²⁷ kg.
n(p⁺) = 11; number of protons in sodium atom.
n(n°) = 12; number of neutrons of sodium atom.
n(p⁺ + n°) = 11 + 12.
n(p⁺ + n°) = 23; number of nucleons in sodium atom.
You can put a known amount sodium into some sort of time release mechanism such as a pill made from soluble material. Then you can place the sodium into a calorimeter with a known mass of water and record the temperature change the water undergoes during the reaction. Then you can use the equation q(water)=m(water)c(water)ΔT to find the amount of heat absorbed by the water. since the amount of heat absorbed by the water is the amount of heat released from the sodium, q(sodium)=-q(water). Than you can use the equation q(sodium)=m(sodium)c(sodium)ΔT and solve for c(sodium)
I hope this helps and feel free to ask about anything that was unclear in the comments.
Water is not alive because it has no living organisms.
