But let's explore some ways we can understand blood sugar readings in the morning and how we can gain better control. One of the most common causes of high morning blood sugars is excess glucose production from the liver. Our bodies were built with some internal mechanisms for creating balance.
Silicon: Symbol: Si Atomic Number: 14: Atomic Mass: 28.086 atomic mass units Number of Protons: 14: Number of Neutrons: 14: Number of Electrons: 14: Melting Point: 1410.0Â° C: Boiling Point: 2355.0Â° C: Density: 2.329 grams per cubic centimeter: Normal Phase: Solid: Family: Metalloids: Period: 3: Cost: $50 per pound
The mass number, A, is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the element. The atomic number, Z, is the number of protons only. On the periodic table, elements are arranged by atomic number. In this case we see that Carbon is element 6, and so it had 6 protons.
