Answer:
answer
Explanation:
i don't know because I'm 10 years old , but pls give me that option
Answer:
Mass number of an atom is the sum of the number of protons and number of neutrons present un the nucleus of an atom.
If we subtract the number of neutrons from the mass number. We will get the number of electrons present in that atom.
Here, given the mass number of atom = 34
The number of neutrons = 18
Therefore, the number of electrons = 34 - 18 = 16
Atomic structure consisting of a center called nucleus. The electrons revolve around the nucleus in a fixed circular orbit with fixed energy and velocity. The number of electrons are equal to the number of protons.
Here, we have 16 electrons present in atom 'Q' which will be filled in shells (2, 8, 6) as shown in diagram:-
- First shell has only two electrons which are present in 1s orbital.
- Second shell will have 8 electrons in which two electrons present in 2s orbital and six present in 2p orbital.
- Third shell will have remaining six electrons. In which two present in 3s orbital and four present in 3p orbital.
