<u>Answer:</u> The mass defect for the formation of phosphorus-31 is 0.27399
<u>Explanation:</u>
Mass defect is defined as the difference in the mass of an isotope and its mass number.
The equation used to calculate mass defect follows:
![\Delta m=[(n_p\times m_p)+(n_n\times m_n)]-M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20m%3D%5B%28n_p%5Ctimes%20m_p%29%2B%28n_n%5Ctimes%20m_n%29%5D-M)
where,
= number of protons
= mass of one proton
= number of neutrons
= mass of one neutron
M = mass number of element
We are given:
An isotope of phosphorus which is 
Number of protons = atomic number = 15
Number of neutrons = Mass number - atomic number = 31 - 15 = 16
Mass of proton = 1.00728 amu
Mass of neutron = 1.00866 amu
Mass number of phosphorus = 30.973765 amu
Putting values in above equation, we get:
![\Delta m=[(15\times 1.00728)+(16\times 1.00866)]-30.973765\\\\\Delta m=0.27399](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20m%3D%5B%2815%5Ctimes%201.00728%29%2B%2816%5Ctimes%201.00866%29%5D-30.973765%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CDelta%20m%3D0.27399)
Hence, the mass defect for the formation of phosphorus-31 is 0.27399

Answer: I would go with B
Explanation: The motor in a circuit isn't moving. That's very vague, but it doesn't show any evidence that an electrical current is going through it, likewise it doesn't show that an electrical current ISN'T going through it. However in regards to this question I would go with B.
Answer:
Explanation:
the molecular mass of Na2C6H6O7 =236 g\mole it has a sodium that has 23 g/mole so 7.6 g of Na2C6H6O7 has x of sodium mass
236 g/mole ⇒ 23g/mole
<h2> 7.6 g ⇒ ˣ </h2>
7.6 x 23 ÷ 236 = 74.07×10-2 grams of sodium
