Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons
The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of phosphorus is equal to the atomic number of phosphorus, which is 15. If an atom of phosphorus has 17 neutrons, then the mass number would be 15 protons + 17 neutrons = 32. Thus, the correct answer choice here is B.
Answer:
Convection.
Explanation:
Let us define each of the type of thermal transfer first:
- radiation is heat transfer that does not include contact between the objects. It's mediated by infra-red radiation, waves from the invisible radiation spectrum.
- conduction is heat transfer which is mediated through direct contact between objects (holding a hot cup of tea, for example)
- convection is a heat transfer found in gases and liquids. Due to different temperatures in two parts of liquid, there will also be a different density ( hotter parts have lower density). Lower density parts will start moving upwards while higher density parts, due to gravity, will move downward. As they move, they will gain or receive heat, which will cause new temperature differences and the moving will restart.

Answer:
221 °C
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Initial volume (V₁) = 4.1 L
Initial temperature (T₁) = 25 °C
= 25 °C + 273
= 298 K
Final volume (V₂) = 6.8 L
Final temperature (T₂) =?
The final temperature of the gas can be obtained as follow:
V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂
4.1 / 298 = 6.8 / T₂
Cross multiply
4.1 × T₂ = 298 × 6.8
4.1 × T₂ = 2026.4
Divide both side by 4.1
T₂ = 2026.4 / 4.1
T₂ ≈ 494 K
Finally, we shall convert 494 K to celcius temperature. This can be obtained as follow:
°C = K – 273
K = 494
°C = 494 – 273
°C = 221 °C
Thus the final temperature of the gas is 221 °C
