    A nucleus represented by the symbol \[_{Z}^{A}X\]has:                                                    [AIPMT (S) 2004]

    A)        Z neutrons and A -Z protons                   

    B)  Z protons and A-Z neutrons

    C)  Z protons and A neutrons

    D)                   A protons and Z-A neutrons

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[_{Z}{{X}^{A}}\] has number of protons \[=Z\] and number of neutrons \[=A-Z\]
    Where A is the total number of protons and neutrons i.e., \[A=Z+AL\]
    Note:    The proton is nothing but the nucleus of hydrogen atom i.e., a hydrogen atom from which the single orbital electron has been removed.
