Air transmitted diseases are easier to catch the closer we are to the infected
person. However, in closed areas, the droplet nuclei recirculate and pose a

d) Stagnant water conditions.
Q15. Read the following and answer the questions from (i) to (iv) given below
The atomic number or proton number of a chemical element is the number of
protons found in the nucleus of every atom of that element. The atomic
number uniquely identifies a chemical element. It is identical to the charge
number of nucleus. All the atoms of the same element have the same number
of protons in their nuclei and hence they have the same atomic number.
The sum of the atomic number Z and the number of neutrons N gives the mass
number A of an atom. Since, protons and neutrons have approximately the
same mass and the mass defect of nucleon binding been always small
compared to the nucleon mass.
Atoms with the same atomic number but different mass numbers are known as
isotopes. A little more than three-quarters of naturally occurring elements
exists as a mixture of isotopes, and the average isotopic mass of an isotopic
mixture for an element in a defined environment on Earth, determines the
element’s standard atomic weight.
i) Which of the statement is always correct?

a) An atom has equal number of electrons and protons
b) An atom has equal number of electrons and neutrons
c) An atom has equal number of protons and neutrons
d) An atom has equal number of electrons, protons and neutrons
ii) How many neutrons are present in the nucleus of hydrogen atom?
(a) 1 (b) 2 (c) 3 (d) 0
iii) Different isotopes are matched with their uses as
(a) Co-60-To treat cancer. (b) U-238-To produce electricity.
(c) I-131-To treat goitre. (d) Na-24-In agricultural research.
Which of the above matches are correct?

(a) (i) and (ii) (b) (ii) and (iii) (c) (iii) and (iv) (d) (i) and (iii)
iv) The Number of electrons in an element X is 18 and the number of
neutrons is 4. Which of the following is the correct representation of
the element?
22
(a) 18 X (b) 4022 X (c) 2240 X (d) 1822 X
OR
The atomic number of an element is 13 and its mass, mass number is 27,
The correct order representing the number of electrons, protons and
neutrons respectively is this atom is
(a) 13, 13, 14 (b) 14, 13 13 (c) 27, 13, 13 (d) 27, 14 ,13
