Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The number of protons, neutrons and electrons in given species has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Mass number(A): Mass number of an element is sum of protons and neutrons of the atom.
Consider an element X with
Where,
A is mass number and Z is atomic number ( number of proton or electron)
Answer to Problem 2.13QP
