1.

A hypothetical of element `X` with mass number 40, posses 2 units of positive charge and `23%` more neutrons than electrons. Symbol of the ion is :A. `_(20)^(40)X^(+2)`B. `_(19)^(40)X^(+2)`C. `_(18)^(40)X^(+2)`D. None of these

Answer» Correct Answer - B
A hypothetical ion of …………
`._(z)^(40)X^(2+)`
`n = e +(23)/(100)e` &
`n = 40 -z` or
`n = 40- (e+2)`
`40-(e+2)= e+(23)/(100)e`
`40 = (123e)/(100)+e+2`
`40-2= (223 e)/(100)`
`e = 17, z = 19 or n = 21`
