Answer:

The correct option is: c. 15

Explanation:

Phosphorous is a chemical element which belongs to the group 15 of the periodic table and has atomic number 15. It is a highly reactive non-metal of the p-group.  

Since, atomic number of an atom is the number of electrons and number of protons for neutral atoms.

So, the number of protons = number of electrons = 15

The atomic mass is obtained by adding the number of neutrons and the protons.

So, number of neutrons + number of protons = 30

So, number of neutrons + 15 = 30

Therefore, the number of neutrons in ³⁰P = 15

Classify each of the observed changes according to whether or not they are likely to represent evidence that a chemical reaction
Mama L [17]

Answer:

a solution color becoming less intense  due to dilution- is not an evidence of a chemical reaction

bubbles (gas formation) - evidence of a chemical reaction

explosion or fire - evidence of a chemical reaction

changes in color- evidence of a chemical reaction

precipitation- evidence of a chemical reaction

changes in temperature - evidence of a chemical reaction

a solid liquifying - is not an evidence of a chemical reaction

solution colors mixing - is not an evidence of a chemical reaction

Explanation:

A chemical change is not easily reversible and yields new substances. It is often accompanied by a loss or gain of heat.

In the answer section, i have shown some evidences that lead us to conclude that a chemical reaction has taken place. The occurrence of a chemical change often goes with the formation of new substances as earlier stated and any of these signs may accompany the process.

For instance, when a metal is dropped in dilute acid solution, bubble of hydrogen gas indicates that a chemical reaction has taken place.
