What do isotopes and nucleus have in common?
All the isotopes of a chemical element have the same atomic number, number of protons and number of neutrons.
The mass number of an elements is equal to?
the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
If an atom of an element has a mass number of 31 and 16 neutrons in its nucleus what is the atomic number of the element?
12. the atomic number of an element is the number of protons in it's nucleus. The mass number is the number of protons+neutrons. Therefore the element has (32-20)12 protons.
What element has the same number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus as an alpha particle?
An alpha particle has 2 protons and 2 neutrons. That is the same as a helium nucleus.
How many protons and neutrons does a nucleus of an atom contain?
Each element has a different number of protons and neutrons. So it changes for each element.
What do isotopes and nucleus have in common?
All the isotopes of a chemical element have the same atomic number, number of protons and number of neutrons.
How does the mass of a nucleus differ from the mass of an electron?
There is no simple answer.The mass of a nucleus depends on the number of neutrons and protons in the nucleus. The number of protons in the nucleus depends on the element. Moreover, the number of neutrons can vary between isotopes of the same element.
How is the nucleus related to the periodic table?
The nucleus contains the protons and neutrons. The number of protons determines the atomic number of the element and the number of protons and the number of neutrons together determine the atomic mass.
Is the atomic weight of an element is equal to the number of protons minus the number of neutrons?
Atomic weight of an element is the number of protons plus neutrons in the nucleus, atomic number is the number of protons only.
The mass number of an elements is equal to?
the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
If an atom of an element has a mass number of 31 and 16 neutrons in its nucleus what is the atomic number of the element?
12. the atomic number of an element is the number of protons in it's nucleus. The mass number is the number of protons+neutrons. Therefore the element has (32-20)12 protons.
The atomic weight of an element is determined by what?
The atomic number of an element is determined by the number of protons in its nucleus.
The mass number of an atom indicates the number of what?
The mass number is the sum of protons + neutrons.
What element has the same number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus as an alpha particle?
An alpha particle has 2 protons and 2 neutrons. That is the same as a helium nucleus.
What atom has the same number of protons and a different number of neutrons from other atoms of the same element?
Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but differing numbers of neutrons in the nucleus.
What detemines the identit of an element?
The number of protons it has in the nucleus. Number of electrons and neutrons can vary but if the number of protons changes, you have a different element. Number of protons is a constant in an element which never changes.
How many protons and neutrons does a nucleus of an atom contain?
Each element has a different number of protons and neutrons. So it changes for each element.
