Atom of element X has mass 5 times than that of Carbon-12 What is its atomic mass?
Willisj1981
Mass of Carbon-12 = 12 amu
5times of mass of Carbon-12 atom = 5 x 12 = 60 amu
So Atomic Mass of element X = 60 amu

Why is the atomic mass scale also called the relative atomic mass scale?
All atomic masses are determined by comparing them to the mass of an atom of carbon12. One atomic mass unit equals one twelfth the mass of an atom of carbon12. That's why its called relativeatomic mass.
How are the atomic mass and the atomic number different?
the atomic mass is the number of protons and neutrons in an atom of an element and the atomic number is the number of protons of an atom of an element.
What is the atomic number of in atom?
atomic number is how much protons(positive atom) and neutrons(neutral atom) are there in an element. therefore an atom does not have an atomic number
What dose the atomic number of an element represent?
The atomic number is the number of protons present in the atom's nucleus
What is The number of protons in an atom of an element is the element's?
The number of protons in an atom of an element is equal to the number of electrons in that atom which is equal to that element's atomic number.

An isotope shares the atomic number with its element atom How does it differ from the element atom?
An isotope shares the atomic number with its element atom. How does it differ from the element atom?
What are the atomic numbers and atomic mass?
Atomic Number :- atomic number of an element is the number of protons present in the nucleus of the atom. (since atoms are electrically neutral the number of protons in an atom is equal to the number of electrons in an atom) Atomic Mass :- atomic mass of an element is the number which tells us how many times an atom of that element is heavier than an atom of hydrogen (whose atomic weight is taken as unity [1])
The number of protons in an atom of an element?
It is equal to the no. of electrons in the atom. It is called the atomic number.
How are the atomic mass and the atomic number different?
the atomic mass is the number of protons and neutrons in an atom of an element and the atomic number is the number of protons of an atom of an element.
What does the atomic mass tell you about the atom?
The Atomic Mass of an element tells you the average mass of an atom in the element.
Is it true that every atom of the same element has the same atomic number?
Yes. It is true. An atom with a different atomic number is an atom of a different element.
How does an atom get its atomic number?
An atom's atomic number is the number of protons within the single atom of an element
What is the atomic number of in atom?
atomic number is how much protons(positive atom) and neutrons(neutral atom) are there in an element. therefore an atom does not have an atomic number
The atomic number is an indication of the number in the nucleus of the atom of an element?
The atomic number is an indication of the number of PROTONS in the nucleus of the atom of an element.
What is the atomic number of an atom with 16 protons?
16 The atomic number of an element is always the same as the number of protons in an atom of the element.
What dose the atomic number of an element represent?
The atomic number is the number of protons present in the atom's nucleus
