If an atom contains 15 protons it must contain?
Any atom should have equal number of protons and electrons. If the atom contains 15 protons then it must contain 15 electrons.
This element has 15 protons and 15 electrons in its neutral atom?
Protons are particles with a positive charge, and in order for your atom to be neutral the positive charge must be cancelled out by adding negative charges of the same value. Electrons are negatively charged. So adding 15 electrons to 15 protons would result in a neutral atom. Also since your atom contains 15 protons it must be Phosphorus, element number 15.
How many protons are in one atom phosphorus?
15 protons. Also usually 15 electrons and 15 neutrons.
How many electrons does phosphourus have?
A phosphorus atom has 15 electrons.
How many protons in P?
P is a p block non metal. Atom contains 15 protons.
If an atom contains 15 protons it must contain?
Any atom should have equal number of protons and electrons. If the atom contains 15 protons then it must contain 15 electrons.
If an atom has 15 protons what else does this tell you about the atom?
The atom also has 15 electrons.

What is the atomic number of a nuetral atom with 15 electrons and 31 neutrons?
In an atom is neutral and has 15 electrons, then it also has 15 protons and therefore the atomic number is 15.
A neutral atom with an atomic number of 15 will have electrons in its outermost energy level?
The element is phosphorus and it contains 5 valence electrons.
How many electrons does phosphorus atom have?
phosphorus have 15 electron because you know the atomic number to know electron
A certain atom has 15 protons 8 neutrons and 12 electrons Which is a different isotope of this atom?
An atom with 15 protons, 15 neutrons, and 15 electrons.
An atom has 15 protons and 18 neutrons How many electrons does it have?
If the atom is neutral, then it will have 15 electrons to balance the 15 protons.
How many protons are in one atom phosphorus?
15 protons. Also usually 15 electrons and 15 neutrons.
How many electrons are outside the nucleus of a phosphorus atom?
The neutral atom of phosphorus has 15 electrons in the atom.
How many electrons in a phosphorus atom?
15 electrons
How many protons neutrons and electrons make up an atom of nitrogen's 15?
Nitrogen 15 contains: 7 protons 8 neutrons 7 electrons "15" is added to the name because it is an isotope and contains inequal amounts of protons and neutrons (in this case, an extra neutron).
