Answer to Problem 2.29QP

Solution

The number of neutrons, number of protons and number of electrons for the given atom are 8_ , 6_ and 6_ , respectively.

Explanation of Solution

Explanation

The atomic number of 14C is 6 and mass number is 14 .

The number of neutrons is calculated by the formula,

Numberofneutrons=AtomicmassAtomicnumber

Substitute value of atomic number and mass number in above formula,

NumberofNeutrons=1416=8

Therefore, the number of neutrons are 8_ .

The number of proton is equal to the atomic number of element. Therefore, the number of protons in 14C are 6_ .

The number of electrons is equal to atomic number or number of protons for a neutral atom. Therefore, the number of electrons in 14C are 6_ .

Answer to Problem 2.29QP

Solution

The number of neutrons, number of protons and number of electrons for the given atom are 33_ , 26_ and 26_ , respectively.

Explanation of Solution

Explanation

The atomic number of 59Fe is 26 and mass number is 59 .

The number of neutrons is calculated by the formula,

Numberofneutrons=AtomicmassAtomicnumber

Substitute value of atomic number and mass number in above formula,

NumberofNeutrons=5926=33

Therefore, the number of neutrons are 33_ .

The number of proton is equal to the atomic number of element. Therefore, the number of protons in 59Fe are 26_ .

The number of electrons is equal to atomic number or number of protons for a neutral atom. Therefore, the number of electrons in 59Fe are 26_ .

Answer to Problem 2.29QP

Solution

The number of neutrons, number of protons and number of electrons for the given atom are 52_ , 38_ and 38_ , respectively.

Explanation of Solution

Explanation

The atomic number of 90Sr is 38 and mass number is 90 .

The number of neutrons is calculated by the formula,

Numberofneutrons=AtomicmassAtomicnumber

Substitute value of atomic number and mass number in above formula,

NumberofNeutrons=9038=52

Therefore, the number of neutrons are 52_ .

The number of proton is equal to the atomic number of element. Therefore, the number of protons in 90Sr are 38_ .

The number of electrons is equal to atomic number or number of protons. Therefore, the number of electrons in 90Sr are 38_ .

Answer to Problem 2.29QP

Solution

The number of neutrons, number of protons and number of electrons for the given atom are 128_ , 82_ and 82_ , respectively.

Explanation of Solution

Explanation

The atomic number of 210Pb is 82 and mass number is 210 .

The number of neutrons is calculated by the formula,

Numberofneutrons=AtomicmassAtomicnumber

Substitute value of atomic number and mass number in above formula,

NumberofNeutrons=21082=128

Therefore, the number of neutrons are 128_ .

The number of proton is equal to the atomic number of element. Therefore, the number of protons in 210Pb are 82_ .

The number of electrons is equal to atomic number or number of protons. Therefore, the number of electrons in 210Pb are 82_ .

Conclusion

  1. a. The number of neutrons, number of protons and number of electrons for the given atom are 8_ , 6_ and 6_ , respectively.
  2. b. The number of neutrons, number of protons and number of electrons for the given atom are 33_ , 26_ and 26_ , respectively.
  3. c. The number of neutrons, number of protons and number of electrons for the given atom are 52_ , 38_ and 38_ , respectively.
  4. d. The number of neutrons, number of protons and number of electrons for the given atom are 128_ , 82_ and 82_ , respectively
