protons 26 electrons 26 neutrons Iron will have 26 electrons 26 protons (they are = because the atom is neutral) and it will have 30 neutrons (because protons + neutrons= your atomic weight)
electrons have virtually no mass
If the iron atom had a +2 charge there would be two less electrons than protons. 26 protons 24 electrons 30 neutrons.

The atomic number of an element is equal to the number of protons it has, so in this case, the atomic number of Iron is 26. The Atomic Mass of an element is the sum of its protons and neutrons, so for Iron with 26 protons and 30 neutrons, the atomic mass is 56 (26 + 30 = 56).

∙ 15y agoThe number of protons in an atom is equivalent to it's atomic number, in this case, 26. The number of neutons is equivalent to the atomic mass minus the number of protons, in this case 30 (or just the atomic mass minus the atomic number). The number of electrons in neutral atoms is equivalent to the number of protons.

∙ 10y agoIf, as you have alleged, the atom is electrically neutral, then the number of its
negative charges must be equal to the number of its positive ones. Therefore it
must follow, as the night does the day, that, since there are 26 positive protons in
the atom's nucleus, there must be 26 negative electrons bound to that nucleus,
if neutrality in the electrical sense is to be achieved.

Atomic Mass (Mr)-56 (Number of Protons and Neutrons)
Net charge-3+ Number of protons minus number of electrons)

Atomic mass: 56
Net charge: 3+

∙ 14y agoIts atomic mass is the amount of protons plus the amount of neturons, therefore it is 56. Electrons are so small their mass is virtually none. Therefore meaning they don't effect the mass.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoCharge is +3 As there are 3 more protons than there are electrons.
atomic mass/weight is number of protons + number of neutrons = 56
atomic number is 26.

How many protons nuetrons and electrons does yttrium have?
Look at the atomic number. That will be the number of protons and electrons; subtract that number from the atomic mass (rounding down) and you'll have the number of neutrons.
What is the number of protons and nuetrons for aluminum?
Aluminum has 13 protons and approximately 14 neutrons.
How do you calculate the amount of protons or neutrons in an element?
To calculate the number of protons in an element, you look at its atomic number on the periodic table. The number of neutrons can be calculated by subtracting the atomic number from the element's atomic mass number.
What particles make up the mass of an atom?
The number of protons
How can the number of proton neutron and electron be calculated to get atomic number and atomic mass?
atomic number is the amount of protons, equal to the atomic number, the electrons, minus the mass number atomic number is the amount of protons, equal to the atomic number, the electrons, minus the mass number atomic number is the amount of protons, equal to the atomic number, the electrons, minus the mass number

What is the number of protons and nuetrons for aluminum?
Aluminum has 13 protons and approximately 14 neutrons.
How many protons nuetrons and electrons does copper have?
Copper has 29 protons, that is why it has the atomic number of 29. In addition, copper has 29 electrons and 35 neutrons.
How do you calculate the amount of protons or neutrons in an element?
To calculate the number of protons in an element, you look at its atomic number on the periodic table. The number of neutrons can be calculated by subtracting the atomic number from the element's atomic mass number.
How many protons neutrons and electrons are in aluminum?
,Aluminium ; from the Periodic Table its atomic no. is 13. Its atomic mass is 27. From the information we can deduce ;- #1 ; The number of protons is '13' #2 ; the number of electrons is '13' #3 ; the number of neutrons is '27-13 = 14'. Remember for all elements, the number of protons and electrons is the same as the atomic number ; its position in the periodic table. Remember to, for all elements, if you subtract the atomic mass from the atomic number , then answer id the number of neutrons in the most common isotope.
What is the sum of the protons and nuetrons in an atomic number?
atomic number is the number of protons. the sum of protons and neutrons is known as mass number
How many neutrons do the elemants have?
There are too many elements to list how many nuetrons each one has, but as a general rule of thumb you can subtract the atomic number (number of protons) from the molecular mass number (Which is generally the number of protons and nuetrons added, since electrons weigh very little) to obtain the number of nuetrons For example, Carbon has an atomic mass of 12. Subtract the atomic number, which is 6, and you will get the number of nuetrons, which is also 6.
Do protons and nuetrons have same atomic number?
no. -------------- In atoms, only the Protons count as atomic number The neutrons and the protons together is as the atomic mass
What particles make up the mass of an atom?
The number of protons
What is the number of protons nuetrons and electrons?
12,13, and 26
How are atoms different from one another?
They are different because of the number of electrons in there electron cloud. True, the number of electrons are specific to the type of atom but so are the number of protons. The atomic number of the atom is directly related to the number of protons and electrons it has. So carbon for example is given the atomic number 6. Thus it has 6 protons and 6 electrons. It's atomic mass is 12.0107 amu. This we can round to 12. To aquire the atomic mass of a given element you add the number of protons and nuetrons together since the electrons are so infinitely small they are not considered to have any mass. We know from the atomic number that carbon has 6 protons, it's atomic mass is 12, so that means the number of nuetrons must also be 6. This doesn't exactly answer the question though. The obvious things that differentiate one atom from another are their atomic number, the number of protons and electrons inside an atom, and their atomic mass.
How many protons nuetrons and electrons does Xenon have?
Xenon has 54 protons, 77 neutrons, and 54 electrons. The number of protons determines the element's chemical properties, while the total number of protons and neutrons determines the atomic mass. Electrons equal the number of protons in a neutral atom.
