A

the bottom number is called the atomic number and the top number is the mass number.

21
Q

how do you calculate number of neutrons.

A

you subtract the mass-atomic numbers.

22
Q

A

easy it is just the atomic number it is also the same with electrons.

23
Q

if a compound ends with ate what does that mean

A

it has sevrel elements one of those being oxygen

24
Q

if a compound ends with ide what does that mean

A

they only contain 2 elements

25
Q

A

solute

27
Q

what is the liquid that does the dissolving called

A

solvent

28
Q

what are the 3 types of rock

A

igneous,sedimentry,metamorphic

29
Q

how do igneous rocks form

A

when a volcano erupts mgma comes out and when the magma cools it becomes a igneous rock

30
Q

what happens if it cools quickly

A

it has small crystals.if it cools slower the longer

31
Q

how do sedimentry rocks form

A

when other rocks crumble the particles are carried away by wind or water and they form a layer edventually these layers become rocks by pressure
