Electrons, which have a negative charge, orbit around the nucleus in specific energy levels.

Submit
15. What number do you look at on the Periodic Table of Elements to determine the number of protons and electrons?

Explanation

The atomic number on the Periodic Table of Elements indicates the number of protons and electrons in an atom. Protons are positively charged particles found in the nucleus of an atom, while electrons are negatively charged particles that orbit around the nucleus. The atomic number represents the unique identity of each element and determines its position on the periodic table. It is a fundamental property of an element and is used to understand the atom's structure and behavior.

Submit
16. How many electrons does Bromine have?

Explanation

Bromine, with atomic number 35, has 35 electrons. The atomic number represents the number of protons in an atom, and since atoms are electrically neutral, it also represents the number of electrons. Therefore, Bromine has 35 electrons.

Submit
17. How many electrons does Niobium have?

Explanation

Niobium, with an atomic number of 41, indicates the number of protons in its nucleus. Since atoms are electrically neutral, the number of electrons in an atom is also equal to its atomic number. Therefore, niobium has 41 electrons.

35. The total number of protons and neutrons make up the                                 of an atom?

Explanation

The total number of protons and neutrons in an atom is referred to as the atomic mass or weight. This value represents the combined mass of the nucleus of the atom. The protons and neutrons are the two types of subatomic particles found in the nucleus, and their total number determines the atomic mass. The atomic mass is measured in atomic mass units (amu) and is an important characteristic of an element as it helps in identifying and classifying different atoms.

Submit
36. Which Scientist created the first Periodic Table of Elements?

Explanation

Dimitri Mendeleev is credited with creating the first Periodic Table of Elements. He organized the elements based on their atomic mass and properties, and left gaps for elements that were yet to be discovered. His periodic table was a significant breakthrough in the field of chemistry as it provided a systematic way of organizing and understanding the elements. Mendeleev's work laid the foundation for the modern periodic table that we use today.

Submit
37. Which Scientist rearranged the Periodic Table and assigned each element an atomic number?

Explanation
