How do you find molarity given the percentage mass and its density?

To find this you also need to know the chemical (or formula) weight of one mole of the compound in grams per mole (so about which compound you're talking about).

What is the element with104 neutrons?

Lutetium (Lu) has 104 neutrons To find this number for any element, take the atomic number (lutetium is 71 on the periodic table) and the mass number of the element and subtract to find neutrons. The atomic number represents the number of Protons and electrons in an atom, the mass number can be found by rounding the atomic mass. If you subtract the # of protons from the total it will tell you how many particles , or neutrons, are left in the nucleus of the atom.. The atomic mass of Lu is 174.967 amu Therefore 175 (total particles) -71 (proton particles)= 104 Neutron particles.


Can you identify an atom without knowing number of neutrons in it?

Yes, and in order to find the Number of Neutrons, subtract Atomic Mass from Number Of Protons, the result will be the Number of Neutrons for that atom *No. Of Neutron=Atomic Mass - Number Of Protons
