FREE Expert Solution
We’re being asked to complete the sixth row of the table.
Recall that the symbol for an element or ion is as follows:
Recall that:
- Atomic Mass = A = number of protons + number of neutrons
- Atomic Number = Z = number of protons = number of electrons
- Net charge
- number of electrons lost if positive (+)
- number of electrons gained if negative (-)
For the 1st Column
The symbol is already given.
