There are 52 protons in an atom of tellurium. The number of neutrons varies, however, as there are a number of isotopes of this metalloid. There are 70, 72, 73 and 74 neutrons in stable isotopes of tellurium, and 68, 71, 76 and 78 neutrons in four radioactive isotopes which can be found naturally. In all, there are isotopes of tellurium with 53 thorough 90 neutrons. A link can be found below for more information.

Tellurium, Te, has an atomic number of 52, and an Atomic Mass of 127.6, or 128 round. How do we find the number of neutrons? It is fairly simple. (Atomic Mass) = (Number of Protons) + (Number of Neutrons) or (Number of Neutrons) = (Number of Protons) - (Atomic Mass) or X = 128 - 52 X = your answer, 76.
