HELPPP ME ASPAP I'LL GIVE YOU BRAINLIST (NO NONSENSE PLS) 1. Nobelium has an atomic number of 102 and an atomic mass of 259. Explain how to calculate how many neutrons are in the most common form of Nobelium. Include a mathematical expression to help explain your answer (example: 1+1 = 2)

2. The atomic mass of Mercury is 200.592. The atomic number for Mercury is 80. As protons and neutrons are only available as a whole, how do scientists determine an atomic mass reported as a decimal number? Explain your answer using Mercury as an example.

1) 157 Neutrons, 2) the decimal is simply is due to isotopes, because the elements atomic mass is an average of these isotopes multiplied by its abundance(or percentage on earth.) For Mercury, it has many isotopes(an element with a different mass number, logically the atomic mass listed on the periodic table as a mass has 100% abundance, therefore this is used to find the most abundant mass for that particular element/molar mass) likewise, Mercury has an atomic mass of 200.59 u, as one mol of Hg(mercury) is 200.59 grams.

Explanation:

The formula for Neutrons in an atom of an element is calculated by finding the

sorry i was late, but i don't know what assignment your talking about, i'm in flvs as well, im in earth space science. but u are behind pace bc every class should be in the 3's or 4'

im not exactly sure but i think its b!
