Symbol, protons, neutrons, mass number, electrons, net charge, nuclear charge is needed to complete the question 59 Co 3+ is the given symbol and there rest of the information is needed to be figured out The next gives you the protons which is 34, neutrons is 46 and the electrons is 36. Everything else is needed. The last one provides the protons:76, neutrons: 116, and a net charge of 2+.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I cant even think anymore and i still need to do the reading and notes and study

OpenStudy (aaronq):

so 59 is the mass number which is the sum of the protons + neutrons Co = cobalt has 27 protons (from periodic table) just subtract to get neutrons. The charge 3+ implies that 3 electrons were lost from the neutral atom which would have the same number as protons, 27.

OpenStudy (aaronq):

yeah, you can't study all night, you wont remember anything :S

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait so 27 electrons and what about the 3 charge? Omg im like a zombie, this whole week i have onlyslept like ten hours

OpenStudy (aaronq):

nope, 3 electrons were lost, and it initally had 27, now it has 27-3=24

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok i see yea ok what aboutthe next question, i look at the proton and neutron and get mass numbe rightM

OpenStudy (aaronq):

yeah, and the number of protons tells you which element it is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oops i meant number and right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got that now charges its going to be -2 bc u gain

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait what is net charge and nuclear charge again?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

yes -2 is the net charge. Nuclear charge would be charge due to the protons (each has +1 charge)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok i think i got the last one now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im literally salivating right now and its soo hot right now too

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got Ir

OpenStudy (aaronq):

haha hot? umm 76 protons = Osmium

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What did i ok nowi know sprry i think i looked at the mass number and used hat fir atomic mass omg im so done haha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its really hot

OpenStudy (aaronq):

the mass number would be 76+116

OpenStudy (aaronq):

it's freezing here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yea i know but its humid here and its like omg so hot

OpenStudy (aaronq):

ewww humidity

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep its the best! Omg its like glue on your body plus clothes and then its like ewww

OpenStudy (aaronq):

haha it's gross :P i'm so sleepy im gonna go. Sorry i couldn't help longer, i wish you good luck on your test!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:( its ok omg i feel like im going to fail, i just dont have time for anything

OpenStudy (aaronq):

you're taking so many classes! it's kinda crazy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know i regret it now, im like soo stressed, i literally like cry everyday

OpenStudy (aaronq):

dont worry, you'll be fine! just get some rest

OpenStudy (aaronq):

aww

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep, its so bad

OpenStudy (aaronq):

:( well don't stress too much

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My eyebags are so big right now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can probably jump rope with them

OpenStudy (aaronq):

haha that's an odd visual, look at you being all funny even when youre stressed haha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Istress too much but i just cant act normal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yea im like the true comedian, maybe i should become one

OpenStudy (aaronq):

haha you should be!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The true mvp, how do they earn? Maybe i can do it

OpenStudy (aaronq):

haha who knows

OpenStudy (aaronq):

i do gotta go though i'm like ywaing like a mad man

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Omg i meant how muchthat was me like an hour ago, now im yodeling

OpenStudy (aaronq):

LOL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its true though
