Answer:
Due to the lack of context for your question I’m not completely sure which you are talking about but NH can be Imidogen or it could be ammonium which is NH4^1+
Continental drifts was a theory that explained in how continent shift position on the earth surface.
The theory was presented in 1912 by Alfred Wegener, who was a geophysicist and meteorologists. The theory also explained the reason why plant and animal fossils that look similar are found all over the continents.
Wegener had the thought that all the different continents were at a point joined together before it breaks up and moves to their present position.
Wegener published a book in 1915 called "The Origin of Continents and Oceans. In this book, he further explained the theory of continental drifts but the theory was widely criticized by geologists because to them, wegener did not have a good model to properly explain how the continent drifted apart.
From Wegener explanation, there were certain things he laid emphasis on, which were very accurate, like the observation about fossils and rock. Wegener thought that the Continent might have plowed through the ocean crust just like icebreakers smashing through ice.
Although, Weneger continental drift theory was discarded but there are certain facts that he established. The theory brought the idea of moving continents to geoscience and after many decades, scientists confirms most of the things the theory covered. For example, the idea that the past existence of supercontinent joined all the landmass of the world as one.

Answer:
The correct answer is option C.
Explanation:
Atomic number(Z) = Total number of protons present in a nucleus of an atom.
Atomic mass(M) = Sum of protons and neutrons present in the nucleus
M = Z + Total number of neutrons
If we are given with mass number of an element and we are said to determine the atomic number of the compound:
22 = Z + Total number of neutrons
Z = 22 - Total number of neutrons
We will require total number of neutrons to determine the atomic number of an unknown elementthat has a mass number of 22.
