there is amount of proton = amount of electron and the mass = amount of proton + amount of neutron so we take the mass - amount of pronton we will get the amount of neutron =20.8
Mass number is about the neutrons and protons. The total of neutrons and protons.
79; the mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons, and the atomic number is the number of protons. So if you take the mass number (protons + neutrons) minus the atomic number (protons), you get the number of neutrons.
Mass number!:)
The "25" is the mass number, which is the sum of the number of neutrons and protons. We don't know how many neutrons there are, but we do know how many protons magnesium has. The atomic number of an element is the same as the number of protons, so locating a Periodic Table, magnesium is number 12, which means 12 protons. If mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons, then number of neutrons = mass number - number of protons (or atomic number). So 25 - 12 = 13 neutrons in 25Mg.
The mass number is the average atomic mass of all the isotopes that are found in nature.
The number of protons
18 protons and 18 neutrons
Atomic number means number of protons present in an atom. Atomic number= number of protons. mass number = number of neutrons+ number of protons. So if you subtract the number of protons you get neutrons and if you subtract neutrons you get protons. mass number - protons= neutrons Mass number - neutrons = protons.
Uranium isotopes have 92 protons and electrons; the number of neutrons is different for each isotope.Number of neutrons = Mass number - Number of protons
Americium has 95 protons and electrons. Number of neutrons: Atomic Mass of an isotope - number of protons
The mass number for iodine is 131, which is the sum of the protons and neutrons. Iodine has 53 protons and 53 electrons, if neutral. To find how many neutrons iodine has subtract 53, the number of protons from the mass number of 131. This shows that iodine has 78 neutrons.
The mass number is the sum of protons + neutrons.
