How many neutrons are in the isotope of oxygen?
there are 8 neutrons (assuming the oxygen is the naturally occurring one).
How many protons and neutrons are in 2 oxygen isotopes with a mass number of sixteen and seventeen?
Isotopes are different forms of the same element with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons. The atomic number of oxygen is 8. So both oxygen-16 and oxygen-17 have 8 protons (and 8 electrons). You get the number of neutrons by subtracting the mass number by the atomic number, so they would have 8 and 9 neutrons respectively.
How many neutrons does element 24 have?

What is the period and group of element having 18 neutrons?
Many isotopes have 18 neutrons.
How many protons electron and neutrons does oxygen?
Oxygen is a p block element. It has 8 protons and neutrons.
How many neutrons are in the element oxygen?
Oxygen has 8 neutrons. However, there are other isotopes that have a different number than this.
How many nuetrons are in the element oxygen?
There are 8 neutrons in oxygen element because the no. of electrons are equal to the number of protons and oxygen element contain 8 electrons.
How many neutron are in oxygen?
There are 8 neutrons in oxygen. You can determine the number of neutrons in any element by subtracting the atomic number (which is 8 for oxygen) from the atomic mass, rounded to the nearest whole number (which is 16 for oxygen). This is because the mass of any element comes mainly from the protons and the neutrons - the mass of the electrons is too tiny to be a significant contribution. The atomic number corresponds to the number of protons in an element, so when you subtract it from the element's total mass, you are left with the number of neutrons.
How many neutrons are in the element gold?
There are 118 neutrons in the element gold.
How many neutrons does singlet oxygen have?
8 Neutrons in singlet oxygen
How many neutrons are in an atom of the element silver?
there are 61 neutrons in a the element silver
How many protons electron and neutrons are in the element oxygen?
There are always 8 protons in Oxygen. This is represented by the atomic number of oxygen. As for electrons , they are often represented by the atomic number in the neutral form, 8, but if the oxygen atom is a ion it would have 10 electrons. For neutrons the average atomic mass is 16.01, neutrons are found by subtracting the number of protons from the atomic mass, so 16.01-8=8.01, there 8.01 average neutrons in oxygen, but in isotopes oxygen can have differnet amounts of neutrons, the mainest is 8 neutrons.
How many neutrons the element H has?
Hydrogen has 0 neutrons
How many neutrons are in the isotope of oxygen?
there are 8 neutrons (assuming the oxygen is the naturally occurring one).
What element that is a gas has eight protons and eight neutrons?
Oxygen. The Elements Atomic Number tells you the number of protons and it's amu is generally the weight of all of the averaged isotopes so since it is nearly 16 (not all O's have 8 neutrons) it is Oxygen.
How many neutrons are in the element Cadmium?
about 66 or 64
