Best Answer

An atom that has 12 neutrons and 11 protons has a mass number of 12+11 or 23, because mass number is defined as the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons. (The ending "12 neau" of the question has been disregarded, because it was assumed to be an error.)

Is the number of electrons equal the number of neutrons in an atom?

not usually, a standard atom will contain the same amount of electrons and PROTONS, not neutrons


How do you tell the number of neutrons in an element?

Subtract the atom number from the mass number to get the neutron. Mass number is the sum of neutrons and electrons. Atom number is the number of electrons. the number of electrons is equivalent to the number of protons.


What is the number of electrons and neutrons in fluorine?

In a neutral atom of fluorine, there are 9 electrons. The number of neutrons varies with an isotope's mass number.


What are the Number of protons neutrons and number of electrons found in an atom of neon?

Neutrons = 10. Protons = 10. And electrons = 10.


Why are electrons number the same as neutrons number?

They are NOT. The number of electrons and the number of neutrons are not linked at all - for instance, an atom of Hydrogen has one proton and one electron and NO neutrons.


Will an atom with 27 protons 32 neutrons and 27 electrons be electrically neutral?

Neutrons have no charge. When the number of protons of an atom is equal to the number of electrons in it, the atom is neutral, in other words, it has no charge.


How do you find the number of electrons in an atom if you know the number of protons and neutrons?

In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons of the nucleus.


What does the atom of?

An atom has a nucleus composed of protons and usually neutrons as well (there is only one kind of atom which has no neutrons, which is the hydrogen 1 isotope) and it also has electrons surrounding the nucleus, with the same number of electrons as the number of protons in the neutrons.


How do you find the mass number given the proton electrons and atomic number but not the neutrons?

The mass number of an atom is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons. This is is the same as the number of electrons plus the number of neutrons since the number of protons is the same as the number of electrons in an atom.


An atom has what number of protons and electrons?

9 protons and 10 neutrons in F-19 isotope.


If a neutral atom has a mass of 15 amu and an atomic number of 7 whats the number of protons neutrons and electrons in the atom?

The protons is 7, the neutrons is 8, and the electrons is 22.


If a neutral atom has a mass of 12 amu and an atomic number of 5 determine the number of protons neutrons and electrons in the atom.?

Protons: 5 Neutrons: 7 Electrons: 5
