**Question 18:** How are the following two atoms related to one another? | Particle | Atom 1 | Atom 2 | |----------|--------|--------| | Proton | 15 | 15 | | Neutron | 16 | 17 | | Electron | 18 | 15 | **Options:** A) They are different elements B) They are isotopes of the same element C) They are the same element BUT one is a cation D) They are BOTH ions of the same element E) They are BOTH isotopes AND ions of the same element --- **Explanation:** - Both Atom 1 and Atom 2 have the same number of protons (15), indicating they are the same element. - Atom 1 has 16 neutrons, while Atom 2 has 17 neutrons, indicating they are isotopes of each other. - Atom 1 has 18 electrons, whereas Atom 2 has 15, indicating that Atom 1 is an anion (with a negative charge) and Atom 2 is neutral or possibly a cation (if charged positively). Therefore, **Option E** is correct: They are BOTH isotopes AND ions of the same element.
