16 neutrons in the most stable isotope of phosphorus (15P31).
Elements are identified by number of protons on the periodic table. Number 15 is Phosphorus.
The number of neutrons in an atom is called the neutron number.
Atomic mass is the number of protons and neutrons that make up an atom. The neutron number is only the number of neutrons present in the atom. This can be found by subtracting the number of protons from the atomic mass.
Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom, not the number of atoms. The element with the atomic number 15 is phosphorus.
Neutron radiation increases the atomic number of the donating atom by one. This occurs when a neutron is absorbed by an atom, causing it to become unstable and undergo beta decay, which results in an increase in atomic number.
You calculate the number of neutron in the nucleus of an atom by : atomic mass - atomic number = neutron number. :) hope this helps
There is no 'neutron atom'. If you mean 'neutral' atom, then the answer is yes.
Elements are identified by number of protons on the periodic table. Number 15 is Phosphorus.
The atomic number of phosphorus is 15. So there are 15 protons and 15 electrons in phosphorus.
All phosphorus atoms have 15 protons (hence their atomic number of fifteen). Assuming the atom is neutral, it will also have an equal amount of electrons.
An atom of phosphorus has 15 electrons in total. This can be determined based on its atomic number, which is 15.
The number of neutrons in an atom is called the neutron number.

mass number= no. of protons + no. of neutron
Of course, number of neutrons or neutron number !
