Question

Calculate the number of electrons, protons and neutrons in 10 molecules of NH+4

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer

Electrons in NH

4

+

ion =7 (from N atom) + 4×1 (from H atoms) −1 (due to presence of +1 charge) =7+4−1=10

Protons in NH

4

+

ion =7 (in N) +4×1 (in H) =7+4−1=10

Neutrons in NH

4

+

ion =(14−7)+4(1−1)

(in N)
