(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The number of protons and electrons in a N2 molecule needs to be deduced

Concept Introduction:

  • Every system found in nature is a composite of atoms, molecules, ions or other particles
  • These are composed of fundamental subatomic particles: protons, neutrons and electrons.
  • Each atom is characterized by two quantities: Atomic number (Z) and atomic mass (A)
  • Z = atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons ------ (1)

    A = atomic mass = number of protons + number of neutrons ------ (2)

    For an ion: number of electrons = number of protons + charge on the ion ------ (3)

(b)
