Question

how to deduce the number of neutrons present in the nucleus of phosphorus[Atomic number 15 and mass number 31]​

Answer 1

Answer:

16 neutrons

Explanation:

given, atomic mass = 31

atomic no. = no. of electrons present in an element.

no. of electrons= 15

we know that, no.of electrons = no.of protons = 15

let, no. of neutrons = N

now, N = total mass - no. of protons

N = 31 - 15

N = 16.
