Sales Tax. The state charges a 6% tax rate on the sale or rental of goods, with some exceptions such as groceries and medicine. Additionally, counties are able to levy local taxes on top of the state amount, and most doÃ¢â¬â55 of the 67 Florida counties added local sales tax to the state tax in 2012. The highest amount added to the sales tax was 1.5% by 7 counties in 2012, bringing the total sales tax to 7.5% in those counties; that will increase to 8 counties in 2013.
Do protons weigh the same as neutrons? YES AND NO When using Relative Atomic Mass (Mr), a proton weighs the same as a neutron. This is rounded to the nearest whole number, however. The actual weight of â¦ a proton is 1.0073 amu. The actual weight of a neutron is 1.0087 amu. As you can see the neutron actually has slightly more mass (weight) than a proton has. When using figures to calculate Mr, however, as in most periodic tables, the mass of protons and neutrons is both 1.
Atoms are composed of three type of particles: protons, neutrons, and electron. Protons and neutrons are responsible for most of the atomic mass e.g in a 150 person 149 lbs, 15 oz are protons and neutrons while only 1 oz. is electrons. The mass of an electron is very small (9.108 X 10-28 grams). Both the protons and neutrons reside in the nucleus. Protons have a postive (+) charge, neutrons have no charge --they are neutral. Electrons reside in orbitals around the nucleus. They have a negative charge (-). It is the number of protons that determines the atomic number, e.g., H = 1. The number of protons in an element is constant (e.g., H=1, Ur=92) but neutron number may vary, so mass number (protons + neutrons) may vary.
