Question

Could you please fill in the table? 

The table below illustrates the properties of different isotopes of Nitrogen and Chlorine, including their mass numbers, atomic numbers, and the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons.

| Element Name | Element Symbol | Atomic Number | Mass Number | # of Protons | # of Neutrons | # of Electrons |
|--------------|----------------|---------------|-------------|--------------|---------------|----------------|
| Nitrogen - 14|                | 7             | 14          | 7            | 7             | 7              |
| Nitrogen -   |                | 7             |             |              | 9             |                |
| Chlorine - 35|                | 17            | 35          | 17           | 18            | 17             |
| Chlorine - 37|                | 17            | 37          | 17           | 20            | 17             |
| Chlorine -   |                | 17            |             | 17           | 17            | 17             |

### Explanation

- **Element Name**: Lists isotopes of Nitrogen and Chlorine.
- **Element Symbol**: Not provided in the table.
- **Atomic Number**: Identifies the element (7 for Nitrogen, 17 for Chlorine).
- **Mass Number**: The sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
- **# of Protons**: Equal to the atomic number.
- **# of Neutrons**: Calculated by subtracting the number of protons from the mass number.
- **# of Electrons**: Equal to the number of protons in a neutral atom.

This table highlights the differences in neutron number among isotopes, while the atomic number, and thus the number of protons and electrons, remains constant for each element.
