Solution

The symbol that correctly represents this atom is 106Ru.

Here's why:

  1. The number of protons in an atom determines the atomic number, which identifies the element. In this case, 44 protons correspond to the element Ruthenium (Ru).

  2. The sum of protons and neutrons in an atom gives the atomic mass number. In this case, 44 protons + 62 neutrons = 106.

So, the correct symbol is 106Ru.
