An atom of an element has atomic number 17 and mass number 36. The number of neutrons in its nucleus is– (1) 17 (2) 19 (3) 36 (4) 53

1 Answer

Answer :

(2) 19 Explanation: Mass Number = number of protons (atomic number) + nu.sriber of neutrons. So as per the question, 36= number of neutrons + 17. Number of neutrons= 36 -17= 19
