Answer to Problem 1STP

Option A is the correct answer.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

An element,

Nickel 60N2860i

Where,

Atomic number (Z)=28

Atomic Mass number (A)=60

Formula used:

Number of protons is given by (Z) .

Number of neutrons is given by AZ .

Number of electrons is given by (Z)

Where,

  A : Atomic mass number of atom

  Z : Atomic number of atom

Calculations:

For an element

Nickel 60N2860i

Substitute the values of A and Z to find the number of protons, neutrons and electrons.

Here,

Number of electrons Z=28

Number of protons Z=28

Number of neutrons,

  AZ=6028AZ=32

Conclusion:

Thus, the option A is correct.
