Do uncombined atoms have the same number of neutrons as protons?
You are prolly asking this for an online true/false test or something, but the answer is no, not necessarily. They do always have the same number of electrons and protons however.
Is it true or false that isotopes are forms of an element that have the same number of protons but a different number of electrons?
false they have the same number of protons, but varying numbers of neutrons
Subatomic particles responsible for most of an atom's mass?
Protons and neutrons.
How many protons an neutrons does an oxygen atom have?
8 protons and neutrons does an oxygen of an atomOxygen atoms have 8 protons and most of the time 8 neutrons.
How many protons and neutrons does a carbon have?
6 protons. The number of neutrons varies, but the most common isotope has 6 neutrons.
What nuclei would be the most stable?
10 protons, 12 neutrons
How many protons and neutrons are in iron?
In the most abundant isotope of iron, there are 26 protons and 26 neutrons.
How many protons and how Mani neutrons does it have?
Boron has 5 neutrons and 5 protons for its most common isotope
Most stable types of nuclei have an number of protons and an number of neutrons?
4 protons and 4 neutrons
The element boron how many protons and neutrons does it have?
Boron has 5 neutrons and 5 protons for its most common isotope
Does there have to be the same number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus?
No. Even atoms of the same element will vary in the number of neutrons in their nucleus. For example, carbon (6 protons) has isotopes with 6, 7, and 8 neutrons. The most common isotope of hydrogen (1 proton) does not have any neutrons. While the most common isotopes of the lighter elements generally have the same number of protons and neutrons, heavier elements will have more neutrons than protons. For example the most common most stable isotope of uranium (92 protons) has 146 neutrons.
What is matter most made of?
Neutrons and protons.
