1.	The number of electrons, protons and neutrons in a species are equal to 18,16 and 16 respectively. Assign the proper symbol to the species.
Answer» SOLUTION :ATOMIC number = 16. HENCE, the element is sulphur (S). Mass number = 16+16 = 32 CHARGE = 16 - 18 = -2 THEREFORE, the symbol is `""_16^33""s^(2-)`
