Br
Explanation:
To calculate the valance electrons, look at the periodic table to find the valance electrons for each atom and add them together. P is in column 5A, so it has 5, Br is in column 7A, so it has 7 (multiply by 4 since there are 4 Br atoms to give 28) and there is a 1- charge, so add one more electron. 5+28+1=34, so there are 34 electrons to place. P would be the central atom, so place it in the middle. Place each Br around the P (as shown above) with a a single line connecting it. Each line represents 2 electrons, so 8 total have been place, leaving 26 remaining. Place 6 electrons around each Br (2 on each of the unbonded sides), which leaves 2 electrons remaining. The remaining pair of unbound electrons will be attached to the P between any two Br atoms. Phosphorus doesn't have to follow the octet rule, so it actually ends up with 10 valance electrons.
All the positive charge of an atom is contained in the nucleus, and originates from the protons. Neutrons are neutrally-charged. Electrons, which are negatively-charged, are located outside of the nucleus.

Answer:
6 elements.
Explanation:
99.9% by weight of most living things is made of the six elements: hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, and sulfur (backwards using just the letter abbreviations this spells SPONCH).
The boiling point of a substance is a physical property.
A physical property of a material or substance is one that can be observed without changing or altering the composition of the material.
Examples are mass, Density, Color, solubility, boiling point, melting point .
A chemical property of a substance is one that describes how the material changes into a completely different substance and is observed only during a chemical reaction.
Examples of chemical properties include types of chemical bonds, heat of combustion, reactivity with other metals, oxidation state and enthalpy of formation.
