An element with mass number 81 contains 31.7% more neutrons as compared to protons .Find the symbol of the atom?SIR, EXPLAIN ME WITH SOLUTION?
The mass number is 81, that means the sum of protons and neutrons is 81. But neutrons are equal to 1.317 times protons ( since 31.7% more neutrons as compared to protons), therefore,
n= neutrons
p= protons
81= n+p
p*[1+31.7/100]=n
(p*131.7)/100 = n
81 = 2.317p
p = 35
the nearest element to these neutrons and protons is Bromine(Br)
