The mass of an atom and the equivalent of to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom
Answer:
Phosphorus cycle
Explanation:
Biogeochemical cycle, any of the natural pathways by which essential elements of living matter are circlated.
There are four types of biogeochemical cycle, they are ; water cycle,carbon cycle,nitrogen cycle and phosphorous cycle
Carbon cycle is the cycle in which photosynthesis and cellular respiration take place.
Water cycle involves transpiration.
Nitrogen cycle Is the cycle that is dependent upon bacteria for nitrogen fixation and denitrification.
Phosphorus cycle is one of the slowest biogeochemical cycle. It does not stay in the atmosphere, because it is normally in a liquid state at room temperature. It does not include the atmosphere.
A lone oxygen atom has 6 electrons in its outer shell which is not very stable, whereas as full octet (8 outer shell electrons) is stable. In order to achieve this two oxygen atoms will share 4 electrons, each contributing 2 electrons. Since these electrons exist within the orbitals of both atoms, to oxygen atoms essentially achieve a full octet.
