The element is sulfur and the isotope is 16S31
A phosphorus atom is an atom with 15 protons and 16 neutrons.
phosphorus
The element is phosphorus and the isotope is 15P35
phosphorus 3-
There are a variety of isotopes that have 30 neutrons. It isn't the number of neutrons that determines an element, but the number of protons. Electrons generally balance the number of protons.
It is only the protons that matter in classifying the element. Sulfur has 16 protons (An atomic number of 16).
There are 15 protons and 16 neutrons in the phosphorus atom. The atomic number, which is at the top of the square, represent the number of protons. In a neutral atom, there are the same amount of protons as well as electrons so there are 15 protons and 12 electrons. You can find the number of neutrons by subtracting the atomic number from the atomic mass and round to the nearest whole number. In this case, the atomic number would be 15 and the atomic mass is 31. 31 minus 15 is 16 neutrons total.
P-31 has 16 neutrons and 15 protons
Phosphorous Atomic Number: 15 Atomic Weight: 31 15 Protons 16 Neutrons 15 Electrons
Sulfur-31 is the isotope with 16 protons and 15 neutrons.
The element is phosphorus and the isotope is 15P35
Phosphorous has 15 protons and 16 neutrons.
No, Phosphorus 31 does not have 16 protons. All Phosphorus atoms have the same number of protons, since the number of protons is what determines which element it is. For phosphorus, the atomic number is 15, meaning it has 15 protons. Phosphorus 31 also has 16 neutrons and 15 electrons.
Phosphorus and sulfur both have 16 neutrons.
