The isotope sodium-20 has how many protons?
Na
22.99
Sodium
O A) 9
OB) 10
OC) 11
OD) 12

Option A. 9

Explanation:

Isotope results when there is a change in the Neutron number of an atom.

From the question,

Mass number of the sodium isotope = 20

But the atomic number of isotopes are constant. Therefore, the isotope has:

Proton = 11

Mass number = Neutron + Proton

Neutron = Mass number — Proton

Neutron = 20 — 11 = 9

the earth would become to overheated and everything alive on it will eventually die from overheating. plants will eventually die as well, water will evaporate, and it will be nothing but a hot planet without anything living on it.
