The electrical charge of an atom having 15 proton, 14 neutrons and 16 electrons is -1. The correct option is D.
What is an atom?
An atom is the smallest unit of any matter which comprises of central nucleus and electrons revolving around the nucleus in definite energy shells. The atom is made up of protons, neutrons and electrons.
The electrical charge of an atom can be calculated as,
Charge of an atom = number of protons - number of electrons
Charge = 15 - 16 = -1.
The neutrons are neutral and do not contribute to the charge, the protons are positively charged and electrons are negatively charged in an atom.
Therefore, the charge of an atom with 15 protons, 14 neutrons and 16 electrons is -1. The correct answer is option D.

Specific heat is the quantity of heat required to change the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1 degree Celsius. It is the amount per unit mass that is required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius. Every substance has its own specific heat and each has its own distinct value. The units of specific heat are joules per gram-degree Celsius (J/f C) and sometimes J/Kg K may also be used.
Answer:
The new volume will be 367mL
Explanation:
Using PV = nRT
V1 = 259mL = 0.000259L
n1 = 0.552moles
At constant temperature and pressure, the value is
P * 0.000259 = 0.552 * RT ------equation 1
= 0.552 / 0.000259
= 2131.274
V2 = ?
n2 = 0.552 + 0.232
n2 = 0.784mole
Using ideal gas equation,
PV = nRT
P * V2 = 0.784 * RT ---------- equation 2
Combining equations 1 and 2 we have;
V2 = 0.784 / 2131.274
V2 = 0.000367L
V2 = 367mL
