Which statements about a phosphorus atom, P, are correct?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Elenna [48]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

3. The proton number is 15.

Explanation:

Phosphorus, P is the element with the atomic number = 15. The atomic number = Number of protons. That means:

3. The proton number is 15.

Now, the number of protons = Number of electrons = 15.

And, nucleon number = Number of protons + number of neutrons. The must abundant phosphorus atom contains 16 neutrons and nucleon number is: 15+16 = 31.

Thus, we can know which statement is true.

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

(C) is the mechanism that increases the temperature between the photosphere and corona of the sun.

Explanation:

When a stars is converted from hydrogen to helium then this is known as proton -proton chain reaction.Due to this reaction the temperature between corona of the sun and photosphere increases.The main reason for increasing the temperature is exothermic reaction.

So the option C is correct.

(C) is the mechanism that increases the temperature between the photosphere and corona of the sun.

An ion of oxygen has a charge of -2. How many protons and electrons does the ion have? ____protons ____electrons
jenyasd209 [6]
Oxygen has 8 protons and 10 electrons due to the addition of 2 electrons, determined from the ion charge. Likewise an ion of potassium has 19 protons and 18 electrons. Charge on fluorine would be -1 and charge on calcium would be +2. Atomic number is the same as the number of protons, so it would be 6, the mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons which would be 13, and the charge is 0, as it is an atom and not an ion.
