4. Copy and complete the table below:
| Element/ion | No of proton | No of electron | No of neutron | Atomic mass |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| X- | 9 | 10 | 10 | 19 |
| Y2+ | 20 | 18 | 20 | 40 |
| P+ | 11 | 10 | 12 | 23 |
| Q- | 17 | 18 | 18 | 35 |
- Explanation for table completion:
- X-: Given 10 electrons and 10 neutrons. Since it's X-, it has 1 more electron than protons. So, protons = 10 - 1 = 9. Atomic mass = protons + neutrons = 9 + 10 = 19.
- Y2+: Given 20 protons and 20 neutrons. Since it's Y2+, it has 2 fewer electrons than protons. So, electrons = 20 - 2 = 18. Atomic mass = protons + neutrons = 20 + 20 = 40.
- P+: Given 11 protons and 12 neutrons. Since it's P+, it has 1 fewer electron than protons. So, electrons = 11 - 1 = 10. Atomic mass = protons + neutrons = 11 + 12 = 23.
- Q-: Given 17 protons and atomic mass 35. Neutrons = Atomic mass - protons = 35 -
