Atomic Mass minus the atomic number.
Number of Neutrons = Mass number - Number of Protons
To find the number of neutrons in an element, subtract the atomic number (number of protons) from the mass number (sum of protons and neutrons). Neutrons do not carry a charge and help stabilize the nucleus of an atom.
The number of neutrons in any element is equal to mass number - atomic number. So,number of neutrons in cobalt is = 58 - 27 = 32. therefore, number of neutrons in cobalt is 32.
The number of neutrons is different for each isotope:Number of neutrons = Mass number of an isotope - 98
For each isotope the number of neutrons is different.Number of neutrons = Mass number of an isotope - 98
Neutrons are not given directly on the periodic table. However the number of neutrons can be indirectly calculated. Mass number = Number of protons + number of neutrons
Mass number-Atomic Number= Number of neutrons
Carbon has 6 protons an 6 electrons (in a neutral state). The number of neutrons is: - for 12C: 6 neutrons - for 13C: 7 neutrons - for 14C: 8 neutrons For artificila isotopes: number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number
The mass number of an isotope is the number of neutrons and protons in the isotope, let this be p +n = (mass number). To find the number of neutrons you need the atomic number (number of protons), let this be p. You then subtract the two: mass number - atomic number = no. of neutrons p + n - p = no. of neutrons = n
the number of neutrons is mass
For each isotope the number of neutrons is different. Number of neutrons = Mass number of an isotope – atomic number
The number of neutrons is different for each isotope. Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - 104
