Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \({ }_{24} \mathrm{Cr}_{{ }_{33}} \mathrm{As}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, mass number of \(X=52\) Mass number of \(Z=75\) Suppose, number of protons in \(X=a\) \(\therefore\) Number of neutrons \(=0.166 a+a=1.166 a\) As we know that, Mass number \(=\) Number of proton + Number of neutron…
