How is the atomic mass determined?
Atomic Mass is the number of protons in an atom plus the number of neutrons in the same atom.
What can be determined by looking at the atomic number of an element?
the number of protons in an atom and the number of electrons in an atom
Do valence electrons determine the atomic mass?
No, the valance electrons determine the charge, the atomic number is determined by the number of protons. Generally, electrons are equal to protons, but in ions it is different, so use protons.
The atomic mass is determined by the weight of?
The number of protons, neutrons and electrons.
How was the atomic number and the atomic mass determined?
the atomic number is determined by looking above top of the letter[s] on an element on the periodic table of elements
How is the atomic mass determined?
Atomic Mass is the number of protons in an atom plus the number of neutrons in the same atom.
What determines the atomic number of a substance?
The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, while the atomic mass is the total mass of the nucleus (both protons and neutrons)
What can be determined by looking at the atomic number of an element?
the number of protons in an atom and the number of electrons in an atom
Is determined by the number of protons and neutrons in a atom?
Atomic mass.
The atomic number is determined by?
The atomic mass is the can be determined by the number of protons in an atom. Remember that a proton has an atomic mas number of 1 AMU (atomic mass unit). (The total mass of an atom is the protons, neutrons and electrons combined.)
Do valence electrons determine the atomic mass?
No, the valance electrons determine the charge, the atomic number is determined by the number of protons. Generally, electrons are equal to protons, but in ions it is different, so use protons.
The atomic mass is determined by?
atomic mass is determined by adding the number of protons and neutrons.this can be seen in the periodic table as the average atomic mass below the name of the element
The atomic mass is determined by the weight of?
The number of protons, neutrons and electrons.
How was the atomic number and the atomic mass determined?
the atomic number is determined by looking above top of the letter[s] on an element on the periodic table of elements
How were the atomic number and the atomic masses of the elements determined?
Atomic masses are determined by mass spectrometry. The atomic number is identic with the number of protons in the atom - depends on position in the periodic table.
Which particle determines the atomic number of an element?
The atomic number of an element is determined by the number of protons.
Why does Calcium have different mass numbers but same atomic number?
Atomic numbers are determined by the number of protons an atom has. The mass number is determined by the number of protons and neutrons. While the number of protons can't change (as the element itself would change), neutrons can and do vary. These are called isotopes.
