MCQ
Which atom contains exactly 15 neutrons?
  • A
    P32 (atomic number =17)
  • B
    S32 (atomic number =16)
  • C
    O15 (atomic number =8)
  • D
    N15 (atomic number =7)

Answer

  1. P32 (atomic number =17)

Explanation:

mass number = no.of protons + no.of neutrons

Given that mass number of P = 32

Atomic number (no. of electrons = no. of protons) = 17

Number of neutrons = 32 − 17 = 15

Hence, P satisfies the requirement.
