How do you calculate the atomic mas based on the number of protons and neutrons of an atom?
Atomic mass is simply the sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons. If an atom has "A" protons and "B" neutrons, its atomic mass is A + B.
Atomic mass is determined by the number of protons plus the number of?
Atomic mass is determined by the number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus.
What does the atomic number of an atom made of?
An atomic nucleus contain protons and neutrons; protons and neutrons contain quarks and gluons.
The number of protons and neutrons in an atom?
Depends on the atom. The atomic number will give you the number of protons. The atomic weight will give you approximately the number of protons and neutrons combined.
How is an atomic number similar to mass number?
The nucleus of an atom consists of protons and neutrons. The number of protons in a particular nucleus is its "atomic number". The total number of protons and neutrons in a particular nucleus is its "mass number".
What do you have when you subtract the atomic no from atomic mass?
Atomic number is number of protons in an atom while atomic mass is the sum of protons and neutrons in an atom when you subtract you will get the number of neutrons in an atom.

What number is the atomic mass equal to?
Atomic mass is the number of protons and neutrons in an atom.
What is equal to the total number of protons and neutrons?
If you add the number of protons to the number of neutrons in an atom, you have calculated that atom's atomic mass.
Distinguish between atomic number and atomic mass?
The Atomic Number of an element is equal to the number of Protons/Electrons in the nucleus and the Atomic Weight is approximately the total number of Protons/Electrons and Neutrons combined. Using Carbon as an example: Total Protons/Electrons = 6, therefore the Atomic Number is 6 Total Neutrons = 6, and the Atomic Weight is 12 Question? The Atomic Number of Lithium = 3 The Atomic Weight of Lithium = 7 How many Protons/Electrons? How many Neutrons? Answer: Protons/Electrons = 3 Neutrons = 4
What are counted in an an atom to determine mass number?
Atomic Mass: protons AND neutrons atomic number: just protons
If the atomic mass of an atom is 48 and the atom contains 20 protons how many neutrons does the atom contain?
28. Atomic mass - Atomic # (same as the number of protons) = number of neutrons
What is the number of protons and neutrons called?
The number protons in an atom is called the atomic number (it is this number that tells us which element the atom is). The number of neutrons in an atom can change, but the term for the amount of neutrons is called an isotope. The number of protons and neutrons added together is called the atomic mass.
