An element with mass number 81 contains 31.7% more neutrons as compared to protons. Assign the atomic symbol.
Let x be the number of protons. The number of neutrons is x+0.317x=1.317x.
The mass number is 81.
It is equal to the sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons.
81=x+1.317x=2.317x
x=35
Hence, the symbol is 8135Br.
