Sulphur has an atomic number 16 and a mass number of 32. State the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of sulphur. Give a simple diagram to show the arrangement of electrons in an atom of sulphur.
Answers
Explanation:
We Know That Atomic Number Is Equal To The No. Of Electrons Present In The Atom Of Any Elements
So We Can Say That Sulphur Has 16 Electrons .
And We Know That Atomic Number Is Equal To No. of Protons Also
That's Why We Can Say That
PROTON ==== 16
NEUTRON ===16 Because Neutron = Mass Number - Proton
It Has Following Electrons In Present In Each Shell
K Shell. ----- 2 Electrons
L Shell. ------ 8 Electrons
M Shell. ------7 Electrons

Answer:
In the case of Sulphur the atomic number is 16 - that means the number of protons is 16. An atom always has the same number of protons as electrons so there are 16 electrons also. The difference between the mass number and atomic number (32 - 16) is the number of neutrons so Sulphur has 16 neutrons also.
