Solution Steps

Step 1: Determine the element

The number of protons determines the element. Since there are 27 protons, the element is cobalt (Co), which has an atomic number of 27.

Step 2: Calculate the charge

The charge of an ion is determined by the difference between the number of protons and electrons. In this case, there are 27 protons (positive charges) and 24 electrons (negative charges). The charge is 27 - 24 = +3.

Step 3: Write the ion symbol

The ion symbol is written as the element symbol followed by the charge as a superscript. In this case, the ion symbol is Co³⁺.

Final Answer

\(\boxed{Co^{3+}}\)

Code the following case study. One code is required. Procedure: Right below the knee amputation Indication for Procedure: Gangrene of the right foot due to diabetes Preoperative Diagnosis: Gangrene of the right foot Postoperative Diagnosis: Gangrene of the right foot Procedure Notes: The patient was brought to the operating suite and given general LMA anesthesia. The right foot was secluded in an isolation bag and the lower extremity circumferentially prepped and draped in its entirety. Beginning on the right side, the skin was marked with a marking pen 4 fingerbreadths below the tibial tuberosity. anteriorly with a long posterior flap. The skin was incised circumferentially, and the anterior muscle was sharply divided exposing the tibla. The tibla was cleaned with a periosteal elevator and then transected with the Stryker saw. The fibula was exposed and transected with the bone cutter and the amputation completed by sharply incising the posterior muscles. Bleeding vessels were ligated. The wound was imigated and ultimately closed without significant tension utilizing interrupted vicryl sutures and skin staples. ICD-10-PCS code:
