A metal atom reacts to form an ion with a charge of \( 2+ \). If the ion has 18 electrons and a mass number of 40, what is the identity of the element and how many neutrons does it have?

The mass number of an atom is defined as the total number of specific subatomic particles in the nucleus. Which statement correctly describes the mass number?

The 'plum pudding' model suggested that the atom was a ball of positive charge with negative electrons embedded in it. Which experimental result directly contradicted this by showing that the positive charge was concentrated in a small center?
