Phosphorus is in group 15 meaning it have 5 valence electrons. This means that it needs 3 more electrons to create a full outer shell. As these three electrons are negatively charged it means that P is a 3- ion (it’s an anion [negatively charged ion])

Which isotope has the greatest number of protons?
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

The isotope with the greatest number of protons is:

  • <u>option D:  Pu-239, with 94 protons</u>

Explanation:

The number of <em>protons</em> is the atomic number and is a unique number for each type of element.

You can tell the number of protons searching the element in a periodic table and reading its atomic number.

Thus, this is how you tell the number of protons or each isotope

Sample       Chemical symbol  Element       atomic number   # of protons

A Pa-238       Pa                         protactinium         91                        91

B U-240         U                          uranium                 92                       92

C Np-238       Np                        neptunium            93                       93

D Pu-239        Pu                        plutonium              94                       94

A. Convert the mass of the Salt weighed out to fg.
omeli [17]

Answer:

6.564×10¹⁶ fg.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass of beaker = 76.9 g

Mass of beaker + salt = 142.54 g

Mass of salt in fg =?

Next, we shall determine the mass of the salt in grams (g). This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of beaker = 76.9 g

Mass of beaker + salt = 142.54 g

Mass of salt =?

Mass of salt = (Mass of beaker + salt) – (Mass of beaker)

Mass of salt = 142.54 – 76.9

Mass of salt = 65.64 g

Finally, we shall convert 65.64 g to femtograms (fg) as illustrated below:

Recall:

1 g = 1×10¹⁵ fg

Therefore,

65.64 g = 65.64 g × 1×10¹⁵ fg / 1g

65.64 g = 6.564×10¹⁶ fg

Therefore, the mass of the salt is 6.564×10¹⁶ fg.
