The atomic number of phosphorus is 15, therefore if I were to draw a dot diagram there would be 5 dots. The atomic weight of phosphorus is 30.97376. And, the symbol of Phosphorus is P, which makes sense considering what the element starts with. Phosphorus combines with oxygen, halogen, trichloride, pentachloride, oxychloride, sulfur, and metals. Phosphorus occurs in more than one form. One is waxy and white, they call white phosphorus, and the other is dark red powder, known as red phosphorus.The electronic configuration of this element is Ne 3s2 3p3.
 * ATOM ASSIGNED:** Phosphorus (P)
