Answer 1

Answer:

it is 31. phosphorous has 15 protons, 15 electrons, and 16 neutrons.

Answer 2

Answer:

The number of protons is 15.

The MASS NUMBER is 31.

Explanation:

As we know the number of electrons = number of protons

( number of electrons = 15)

So, the number of protons = 15

Mass numbers = number of neutron + number of protons

Mass number = 16 + 15

Mass number = 31

The element with mass number 31 is PHOSPHOROUS.
