Question

an element x has mass number 35 and the number of neutrons is 18 identify the group number and period of x

Answer 1

Given :
Mass number of element is 35
Number of neutrons= 18

Formula to find number of protons:
Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons.
35=× +18
×=35 - 18
X=17.
Number of protons =17 and number of electrons also will be 17 as atom is electrically neutral.

Hence Element is chlorine

Electronic configuraton:
1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5

Group number= 17
Period number =3
Valency =1

Answer 2

atomic no. of X = Mass no. of X - no. of neutrons
                  = 35 - 18 = 17

So, atomic number of X is 17.
Electronic configuration of X : 2,8,7

Group no. : 17
​Period no. : 3.
