CIO_3^-, and CIO_4^-, and Cl^- CIO_4^-, CIO_3^-, and Cl^- Cl^-, CIO_4^-, and CIO_3^- Cl^-, CIO_3^-, and CIO_4^- CIO_3^-, CIO_4^-, and Cl^-

Explanation / Answer

(6) Number of protons = Number of electrons = atomic number of Ba = 56

Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number = 137 -56 = 81

Option (B) is correct

(7) Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number = 40-19 = 21

So isotope is 40K

Option (D) was correct

(8) Atomic number of Br = number of protons = 35 protons

Number of electrons = atomic number - chanrge = 35 - (-1) = 36

Option (E) was correct

(9) Atomic number of Ca = number of protons = 20 protons

Number of electrons = atomic number - chanrge = 20 - (+2) = 18

Option (D) was correct

(10) Option (D) was correct
