Imagine that you take a sample of natural neon gas, Ne(g), and run it through a mass spectrometer. The image below sketches the mass spectrum that you would get. The horizontal axis establishes the value of the m/q ratio for the ions that are generated; this quantity can be seen as a direct measure of the relative mass of the different ions. The vertical axis provides information about the percent abundance of the ions produced during the analysis. Given that neon is an atomic elementary substance, how do you explain that the experiment produced three peaks with distinctive relative masses instead of one? с % Abundance d 90.48% 18 19 20 0.27% 9.25% 21 22 m/q Select an answer and submit.

When a chemical reaction occurs, atoms rearrange to form now compounds, but no new atoms are created nor are any destroyed This concept is called conservation of mass. Mass conservation can be seen in a balanced chemical equation where the numbers of each kind of atom are the same on both sides of the reaction arrow. The figure (Figure 1) shows the reaction of element A (lavender spheres) with element B (tan spheres). Write the balanced chemical equation for this reaction in terms of A and B. Express your answer as a chemical equation. When balancing chemical equations with polyatomic ions, it may help to balance the ion as a whole. For example, the ion PO_4^3 can be treated as a unit and balanced in both the reactants and the product, or you can break it down and balance each atom separately.
