- The atomic masses of the natural isotopes of neon are 19.99244u, 20.99395u, and 21.99138u . The average of these three masses is 20.99259u . The atomic mass of neon is listed as 20.1797u on the periodic table. Which isotope do you expect is the most abundant in nature? Explain. When neon gas is within an activated gas discharge tube, reddish-orange light is emitted.arrow_forwardHalogens elements are in group?arrow_forwardUse the following key to classify each of the elements below in its elemental form:arrow_forward
- Which of the following are isotopes of element X, the atomic number for which is 9: 919X, 920X, 189X, and 921X?arrow_forwardA 10.02-g sample of an element contains 0.250mol of the element. Classify the element into the correct category of the representative, transition, inner-transition, or noble gas. Will the element conduct electricity?arrow_forwardCalcium metal reacts with cold water as follows: Ca+2H2OCa(OH)2+H2 Magnesium metal does not react with cold water. What behavior toward cold water would you predict for strontium and barium? Write equations to represent any predicted reactions.arrow_forward
