Everything is made up of atoms. An atom is the smallest amount you have have of an Element (you find these on the Periodic Table of elements) The atom is made of a nucleus and shells. Inside the nucleus are protons and neutrons.

And in the shells are electrons.

What does a periodic table have?

a modern periodic table should have the 118 elements, their atomic numbers, and their masses. to find the number of protons and electrons, they are the same as the atomic number. to find the neutrons, subtract the protons from the mass.


How do you count the number of neutrons and protons in an atom?

The number of protons in an atom is its atomic number, which you can find on the periodic table. To calculate the number of neutrons, subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass listed on the periodic table.


How do you find the number of protons and neutrons in an element?

The number of protons in an element is equal to its atomic number, which is found on the periodic table. To find the number of neutrons, subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass of the element.


What element on the periodic table has 48 neutrons?

An element with 48 neutrons would most likely be cadmium (Cd) on the periodic table. Cadmium has an atomic number of 48, which means it has 48 protons. Adding the number of protons and neutrons gives the mass number of an element.


To find the atomic mass of an element you do what?

Add up all the protons and neutrons in the atoms nucleus. OR, look it up on the periodic table.


How do you find protons in the periodic table?

# protons = atomic number.


How do you find the number of neutrons in a element using only mass and the element name?

To find the number of neutrons in an element, subtract the atomic number (number of protons) from the atomic mass number (rounded mass of the element). The atomic number can be determined from the element's position on the periodic table.


How do you find the mass number on the periodic table for the elements are calculated?

The mass number is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons in the atomic nucleus.


How do you use a periodic table?

You use a Periodic Table to find the group, period, and the material of the 115 elements. You can find the the number of protons/electrons on the bottom of the symbols(which is arranged in oder). You can the mass number on the VERY bottom of the element's block. You can find out the number of neutrons by subtracting the number of protons/electrons from the mass number.


How many protons and neutrons does Li-9 have?

Lithium-9 has exactly 3 protons, 3 electrons, and 6 neutrons. To Find the number of protons just look on your periodic table, the number usually above the element on the table or the number in bold. (3) Finding the number of neutrons is simply the number preceeding the name (9) minus the number of protons (3).


How much protons neutrons and electrons does manganese have?

25 protons 25 electrons normally 30 neutrons but it can vary between 21 and 40.


How many protons and neutrons are in the nucleus of isotope with mass of 70.925 amu?
