Well, the neutrons AND protons are totaled together to equal the atomic weight!

Atomic weight is equal to the?

Atomic weight/ mass = number of protons + number of neutrons


Is the atomic weight of an element is equal to the number of protons minus the number of neutrons?

No, the atomic weight of an element is not equal to the number of protons minus the number of neutrons. Atomic weight is the average weight of an element's isotopes taking into account their abundance, which includes the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus.


What is the atomic weight of an atom equal to?

Neutrons and protons combined


Does the number of protons in an atom of an element always equal its atomic weight?

atomic weight = mass of protons + mass of neutrons


What is equal to the total number of protons and neutrons?

If you add the number of protons to the number of neutrons in an atom, you have calculated that atom's atomic mass.


Can atomic weight minus the number of neutrons equal the number of isotopes an element has?

It is not correct.


What is chemical atomic weight?

Atomic weight = Weight of protons + Weight of neutrons


How can you calculate the number of neutrons N in an atom?

equal to number of protons


How do you figure out protons electrons neutrons?

Find the atomic number. That tells you the number of protons and electrons (in a neutral atom). Then find the atomic weight. The number of protons plus the number of neutrons will equal the atomic weight. So if you know the wt. just subtract the number of protons and you will have the number of neutrons.


Has a mass about the same as a proton's?

The atomic mass doesn't equal to the number of protons. The number of protons plus the number of neutrons equal to the atomic weight... DAI BI!


Are the number of neutrons equal to the atomic number minus the atomic mass?

false


Is The atomic number is always equal to the atomic weight?

No.The atomic number is dependent on the number of protons. The atomic weight is dependent on the number of protons and neutrons. As almost every element has some neutrons in its nucleus the atomic number will never be equal to the atomic weight.The one possible exception is Hydrogen with a single proton. However there are two isotopes of hydrogen: deuterium and tritium. Deuterium has one proton and one neutron. Tritium has one proton and two neutrons. Therefore when taken as a whole the atomic weight of hydrogen will always be slightly greater than 1g/mole.
