14-6=8
8 neutrons and 6 protons (atmic num = protons num)

How many neutrons does carbon-17 have?
11 Carbon has atomic(proton) number 6. i.e it has 6 protons. There are three naturally occurring isotopes for carbon. They are C12 c13 and c14. among them c14 is radioactive. c12 has 6 protons and 6 neutrons. c13 has 6 protons and 7 neutrons. c14 has 6 protons and 8 neutrons. Similarly, c17 has 6 protons and 11 neutrons.
How many neutrons is in californium?
153 neutrons in the most stable isotope Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - atomic number. Atomic mass of the most stable isotope of Cf is 251. Atomic number of Cf is 98.
How may protons neutrons and electrons In lawrencium?
Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - Atomic number of the element; the atomic number of Lr is 103. Lawrencium has many isotopes and each isotope has a different number of neutrons.
How many neutrons does the isotope carbon have?
Most carbon atoms have 6 neutrons, but a small fraction of them have 7 neutrons (to make carbon-13 isotope atoms) or 8 neutrons to make carbon-14 isotopes. Radioactive carbon atoms with other numbers of neutrons can be made in nuclear reactions.
How many nuetrons are there in carbon-12?
There are 6 neutrons in carbon-12. Carbon-12 has an atomic number of 6, which indicates the number of protons in its nucleus. The sum of protons and neutrons gives the atomic mass of an element, so carbon-12 has a total of 12 nucleons. Subtracting the 6 protons gives the number of neutrons.
How do you get the number of neutron?
The isotope number and the atomic number can be used to calculate the number of neutrons. Consider carbon-14. The atomic number for carbon is 6 (i.e., the number of protons is 6). The isotope number of carbon-14 (i.e., 14 = protons + neutrons). Subtract the atomic number from the isotope number calculate the number of neutrons (8 for carbon-14).
Carbon has an atomic number of 6 how many protons and neutrons are in a nucleus of carbon 13?
12 - 6 = 6 neutrons; the number of neutrons in an isotope is always the mass number minus the atomic number.
What is the relation of atomic mass with atomic no 6 and atomic mass 12 of carbon?
Carbon has 6 protons. With carbon-12 (the most common isotope) there are 6 protons + 6 neutrons, which gives the atomic mass of 12.
How many neutrons does carbon-17 have?
11 Carbon has atomic(proton) number 6. i.e it has 6 protons. There are three naturally occurring isotopes for carbon. They are C12 c13 and c14. among them c14 is radioactive. c12 has 6 protons and 6 neutrons. c13 has 6 protons and 7 neutrons. c14 has 6 protons and 8 neutrons. Similarly, c17 has 6 protons and 11 neutrons.
What would be an isotope of carbon12?
The 12 in Carbon-12 designates the isotope which has an atomic mass of 12. This is the most abundant isotope of carbon. Carbon has an atomic number of 6, therefore it has 6 protons. Carbon 12, therefore has 6 neutrons. Carbon 14 is another isotope of carbon, still having 6 protons, but has 8 neutrons, so it has an atomic mass of (6 + 8 = 14). See related link for more information on carbon isotopes.
How many protons neutrons and electrons in carbon-14?
Carbon 14 has 6 protons, 8 neutrons, and (in the neutral atom) 6 electrons.
How does the atomic number relate to the number of protons in an atom?
Atomic Mass (of an isotope) - number of protons (of an isotope) = number of neutrons (of an isotope)
How many neutrons is in californium?
153 neutrons in the most stable isotope Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - atomic number. Atomic mass of the most stable isotope of Cf is 251. Atomic number of Cf is 98.
How many neutrons in C-13 in isotope?
Carbon 13 has 7 neutrons.The atomic mass represents the total number of protons and electrons. Carbon atoms have 6 protons. Therefore, the atomic mass being 13, it has 7 neutrons.
How many protons are there in the C-12 isotopes?
All isotopes of the same element differ only in the number of neutrons, not protons. As we are talking about carbon, all isotopes of carbon have 6 protons.There are 6 protons in C-12 isotope. Its atomic number is also 6.The number of neutrons is also 6.
What is Atomic Mass unit based on?
The mass of any isotope is based on the mass of an isotope of carbon, which is assigned a mass of 12.
