Answer 1

Not judging, but you probably would've gotten the answer if you posted in the Chemistry subject.

Answer:

C would be the incorrect statement.

Explanation:

When doing the calculations for finding the neutrons, you would get around 24 neutrons, since the mass is about 45 amu. 21 would be the number of protons.

Hope this helps :)
