Kaizen can be defined as the philosophy and practice of continuous improvement. Kaizen is a workplace methodology. It refers to the practice of looking for ways to improve work processes on a regular basis. The practice involves small, incremental changes rather that large changes.
Phosphate is an anion with the chemical formula #PO_4^(3-)# and has the above configuration. Only single elements have a atomic number, which is the number of protons in the nucleus. The atomic number of phosphorus is 15 and the atomic number of oxygen is 8.
ATOMIC NUMBER AND MASS NUMBERS. After reading this section you will be able to do the following: Define and determine the atomic number of an atom. Define and determine the mass number of an atom. What is an atom's atomic number? The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom determines an element's atomic number. In other words, each element has a unique number that identifies how many protons are in one atom of that element. For example, all hydrogen atoms, and only hydrogen atoms, contain one proton and have an atomic number of 1. All carbon atoms, and only carbon atoms, contain six protons and have an atomic number of 6. Oxygen atoms contain 8 protons and have an atomic number of 8. The atomic number of an element never changes, meaning that the number of protons in the nucleus of every atom in an element is always the same.
