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 contains 15 electrons it will also have 15?

Protons, because electrons are equal to the atomic number and protons are equal to the number of electrons.

15 electrons and 15 protons


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).

How many protons and electrons does phosphorus have?

PHOSPHORUS (P): Protons: 15 Electrons: 15 Neutrons: 16


How many protons in P?

P is a p block non metal. Atom contains 15 protons.


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 atoms are there in phosphorus?

One phosphorus atom contains 15 protons and 15 electrons, giving it an atomic number of 15.


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.


What is the number of electrons and protons in phosphorus?

Phosphorus (P) has 15 protons and 15 electrons. Phosphorus-31, the only stable isotope of Phosphorus, has 16 neutrons.


What element contains 7 valence electrons and 7 protons?

You should understand that while neutral atoms have the same number of protons and electrons, they do not usually have the same number of protons and valance electrons, because except for hydrogen and helium, atoms also have electrons in the inner shells, which are not valance electrons. Therefore, there is no atom which has 7 protons and 7 valance electrons, although there is an element that has 7 protons, and there are several elements that have 7 valence electrons.
