WRITE SHORT ANSWER

Define the atomic mass number of an atom.


In group I of the periodic table, three elements X, Y, and Z have ionic radii 1.33 Å, 0.95 Å and 0.60 Å respectively. Giving a reason, arrange them in the order of increasing atomic number in the group.


From the symbol `""_15^31"P"`, state :  atomic number of phosphorus
