To identify neutrons, we need to subtract the atomic number and Atomic Mass..Since neutrons are the negative ones, the electrons are the positive ones. So clearly, ....shut up !!!!!!!!!ha di ka kasabot diha?/?/???

Can you identify an atom without knowing number of neutrons in it?

Yes, and in order to find the Number of Neutrons, subtract Atomic Mass from Number Of Protons, the result will be the Number of Neutrons for that atom *No. Of Neutron=Atomic Mass - Number Of Protons


Why must you know both how many protons and how many neutrons an element has in order to fully identify it?

The number of protons determine what element it is, the number of neutrons determine what isotope it is.


The mass number of an element is equal to the total number of?

The mass number is the average atomic mass of all the isotopes that are found in nature.


Can you identify an atom without number of neutrons in it?

Every element has a specific number of protons, which is how an element is identified. That gives its atomic number. The number of neutrons can vary, and therefore is not useful in identifying an element.


What is an atom's mass number?

An atom's mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus. It is used to identify isotopes of an element since isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.


What number identify an element?

The atomic number of an element is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus of that element; it will identify the element. The number of neutrons of a given element may be different as the element may have a number of isotopes.


What is the number of protons and neutrons called?

The number protons in an atom is called the atomic number (it is this number that tells us which element the atom is). The number of neutrons in an atom can change, but the term for the amount of neutrons is called an isotope. The number of protons and neutrons added together is called the atomic mass.


Identify the unit that is used for atomic masses?

The carbon atom, which has six protons and six neutrons, is arbitraily declared to have an atomic weight of 12.


Is the difference between the mass number of an isotope and its atomic number is equal to the number of nucleons in the nucleus?

Yes, the difference between the mass number and the atomic number of an isotope equals the number of neutrons in the nucleus, which are also known as nucleons. This relationship helps to identify the number of neutrons in an isotope based on its atomic and mass numbers.


Is The number of protons plus the number of neutrons in the nucleus of an atom known as the mass number?

Yes, the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is known as the mass number. The mass number is used to identify different isotopes of an element.


Why doesn't the number of neutrons identify an element?

The number of neutrons in an atom does not identify the element because different isotopes of an element can have the same number of protons (which determines the element) but varying numbers of neutrons. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, but differing numbers of neutrons.


HOW TO FIND THE NUMBER OF NEUTRONS IN BOHR RUTHERFORD DIAIGRAMS?

To find the number of neutrons in an atom using a Bohr-Rutherford diagram, first identify the atomic number (Z), which is the number of protons, typically indicated in the diagram. Next, locate the atomic mass number (A), usually provided or deduced from the diagram. The number of neutrons (N) can then be calculated using the formula ( N = A - Z ). This will give you the total count of neutrons in the nucleus.
