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

Which of the following will stay constant, no matter if the substance is in the solid, liquid, or gas state? volume shape temper
Harman [31]

Answer : The correct option is, Mass

Explanation :

As we know that there are 3 states of matter :

Solid state : It is a state in which the particles are closely packed and does not have any space between them. This state have a definite shape and volume.

Liquid state : It is a state in which the particles are present in random and irregular pattern. The particles are closely arranged but they can move from one place to another. This state have a definite volume but does not have a fixed shape.

Gaseous state : It is a state in which the particles are loosely arranged and have a lot of space between them. This state have indefinite volume as well as shape.

If we are taking 100 grams of ice then after melting its mass remains same but its shape, volume and temperature will be changed and after evaporation its mass remains same but its shape, volume and temperature will be changed.

Hence, the mass will stay constant, no matter if the substance is in the solid, liquid, or gas state.
