Answer:
C is the only reasonable answer.. but this is 6th grade science and I'm in 7th, so I'm pretty sure I'm right
By stoichiometry and assume
that:
CxH2xOy + zO2 -> xCO2
+ xH2O
<span>
CO2: 9.48/44 = 0.215 mmol
H2O: 3.87/18 = 0.215 mmol
mass of C = 0.215 * 12 = 2.58 mg
mass of H = 0.215 * 2 * 1 = 0.43 mg
mass of O in ethylbutyrate = 4.17 - 2.58 - 0.43 = 1.11 mg
So C/O = 2.58/1.11 ≈ 3 </span>
<span>
Thus we have C3H6O</span>

You can simply subtract the atomic number from the mass number in order to find the number of neutrons.

Here is the link to a great video that explains your question nicely, hope this helps.
The aim is to use less space while demonstrating the distribution of electrons in shells
If you want to depict how an atom's electrons are scattered across its subshells, an orbital notation is more suited.
This is due to the fact that some atoms have unique electronic configurations that are not readily apparent from textual configurations.
<h3>How does electron configuration work?</h3>
The placement of electrons in orbitals surrounding an atomic nucleus is known as electronic configuration, also known as electronic structure or electron configuration.
<h3>What sort of electron arrangement would that look like?</h3>
- For instance: You can see that oxygen contains 8 electrons on the periodic table.
- These 8 electrons would fill in the following order: 1s, 2s, and finally 2p, according to the aforementioned fill order. O 1s22s22p4 would be oxygen's electron configuration.
