Answer:

^{32}_{15}P

Explanation:

Atomic number : It is defined as the number of electrons or number of protons present in a neutral atom.

However, when we talk about the atomic number of the ion, it is not equal to the number of electrons as electron can be gained or loosed.

This is why, more appropriately, the number of the protons which are present in the nucleus of the atom is called the atomic number.

Thus, atomic number of phosphorus = 15

Mass number is the number of the entities present in the nucleus which is the equal to the sum of the number of protons and electrons.

Given, Mass number = 32

Thus, the symbol of the isotope is:-

^{32}_{15}P

a compound has a molar mass of 129 g/mol if its empirical formula is C2H5N then what is the molecular formula
Elena-2011 [213]

Given :

A compound has a molar mass of 129 g/mol .

Empirical formula of compound is C₂H₅N .

To Find :

The molecular formula of the compound.

Solution :

Empirical mass of compound :

M_e = ( 2 \times 12 ) + ( 5 \times 1 ) + (  1  \times 14 )\\\\M_e = 43\ gram/mol

Now, n-factor is :

n = \dfrac{M}{M_e}\\\\n = \dfrac{129}{43}\\\\n = 3

Multiplying each atom in the formula by 3 , we get :

Molecular Formula, C₆H₁₅N₃

Explain why the nucleus of an atom is positively charged but the overall charge of an atom is neutral
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The nucleus is positively charged because it contains all of the protons however the charge of an atom is neutral because there is an equal amount of protons (positive) and electrons (negative) meaning the opposite charges cancel each other out therefore making the atoms overall charge neutral.
