look on a Periodic Table. (it's 8 btw)
The atomic number of oxygen, which is 8, represents the number of protons found in the nucleus of an oxygen atom. It determines the element's identity as oxygen and its placement on the periodic table. The atomic number also influences the chemical properties of oxygen.
Oxygen come on now you breath it. :)
Oxygen is a gas. atomic number of it is 8.
Each oxygen atom contains 8 protons in its nucleus. The atomic number of a chemical element (also known as its proton number) is always the number of protons found in the nucleus of an atom of that element, and identical to the charge number of the nucleus. It is conventionally represented by the symbol Z.
The number of protons in an element is the atomic number, which can be found in the top right corner of the box containing the element.
The atomic number of an element is the number of protons found in the nucleus of an atom. The atomic number is identical to the charge number of the nucleus. For example, the atomic number of Oxygen is 8.
Oxygen is an atomic element. It is found in many molecules.
Oxygen is an atomic element. It is found in many molecules.
It's not an element, so it doesn't have an atomic number.
Element with atomic number 8 is Oxygen(O2). It is the most abundant element on earth. It is very reactive, so most sources of oxygen are found in the crust in combined state with other elements.
As far as i know, its the atomic mass of oxygen
The atomic number refers to the number of protons in the element. And since the number of protons = number of electrons, the atomic number is also the number of electrons in the element. The mass number of an element refers to the number of neutrons and protons in the element. &since electrons are negligible in mass, the number of neutrons can be found out by subtracting the atomic number from the mass number. Take for example, oxygen. Oxygen has an atomic number of 8 and a mass number of 16. Hence, from the atomic number it can be derived that it has: 8 electrons 8 protons While from the mass number, it can be derive that it has: 16-8 = 8 neutrons
