Answer:

Oxygen is more electronegative than sulphur

Explanation:

Bond angle of a molecule is related to the electronegativity of the central atom. The more electronegative the central atom is, the greater the bond angle.

As electronegativity of the central atom increases, the magnitude of bond pair- bond pair repulsion increases leading to increase in bond angle.

Hence, oxygen, being more electronegative than sulphur asserts a greater bond pair- bond pair repulsion leading to a greater bond angle in water.

An isotope has an atomic number of 32 and contains 31 neutrons. What is the mass number of this isotope?
____ [38]
Mass Number quantifies the number of protons and neutrons in the atom. Electrons are so small that they do not even matter in the calculation. Protons and Neutrons are approximately 1 A. Atomic Number refers to where the atom is on the periodic table, such as Hydrogen being Atomic Number 1, but also quantifies the number of protons. In your situation the atomic number is 32 meaning it is Germanium but also meaning it has 32 protons. When we add the number of protons and number of neutrons to find the mass number we do 32 (protons) + 31 (neutrons) to get a total mass number of 63. 63 is your answer.
