By the number of protons and neurons in a element. each has a relative Atomic Mass of 1. an electron weighs around a 2000th of this, so is ignored for Ar calculations
These determinations are based on mass spectrometry.
Atomic mass minus atomic number. This is rather simplified but the atomic mass of an element is the total of all the protons, neutrons, and electrons in an atom. Each proton and neutron has an atomic mass of approximately 1 AMU (atomic mass units) while an electron has an atomic mass of about 0.0005 AMU. So, you don't need to worry about the electrons. The atomic number of an element is simply the number of protons in the atom. So, atomic mass (number of protons and neutrons) minus atomic number (number of protons) equals number of neutrons in an atom.
If you mean "how does one determine an atoms atomic mass?", then the answer would be to find a periodic table of elements where the whole numbers indicate atomic number and the other indicating atomic mass. Atomic number is generally described as the number of protons in a naturally occurring atom of a given element, and the atomic mass is the number of protons + number of neutrons in an atom.
The numbers of protons and of electrons in an atom are both the same as the atomic number, and the difference between the mass number and the atomic number is the number of neutrons in the atom.
No, the atomic mass is the average mass of the atom and the atomic diameter is the average diameter of the atom
you cannot determine its electronic configuration through its atomic mass. atomic no is necessary. for this, check modern periodic table.
Proton + Nuetron = Atomic Mass

they determine the atomic mass of the atom
the atomic mass
In an atom, no. of protons = no. of electrons=atomic no. no. of neutrons=atomic mass-atomic no.
To determine the number of protons, look at the atomic number. The number of electrons is also the atomic number.To find the number of neutrons subtract the atomic number from the Atomic Mass number.
Atomic Mass: protons AND neutrons atomic number: just protons
protons plus neutrons
If you mean "how does one determine an atoms atomic mass?", then the answer would be to find a periodic table of elements where the whole numbers indicate atomic number and the other indicating atomic mass. Atomic number is generally described as the number of protons in a naturally occurring atom of a given element, and the atomic mass is the number of protons + number of neutrons in an atom.
Number of Neutrons = Mass number - Atomic Number
no --- atomic number
The numbers of protons and of electrons in an atom are both the same as the atomic number, and the difference between the mass number and the atomic number is the number of neutrons in the atom.
