In an atom protons and neutrons are located in the atomic nucleus.
Any atom of magnesium will have 12 protons.Neutral atoms of Mg-24 will have 12 neutrons and 12 electrons. Mg-25 has 13 neutrons and Mg-26 has 14 neutrons. A magnesium ion will have either 10 or 11 electrons.
This would be magnesium, based on the number of protons. Since the protons is equal to the number of electrons it is a neutral atom. Given the number of protons in the atom, the isotope would be magnesium-26.
Protons and Neutrons.
Any atom, ion, or isotope with 12 protons is going to be magnesium. Only the number of protons in the nucleus will determine the element. But with the information about the number of neutrons, the specific isotope can also be determined - 22Mg.
Yes, the nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons.
Atomic # : 12 Mass Number : 24 # of Protons : 12 #of Neutrons : 12 # of Electrons : 12
Any atom of magnesium will have 12 protons.Neutral atoms of Mg-24 will have 12 neutrons and 12 electrons. Mg-25 has 13 neutrons and Mg-26 has 14 neutrons. A magnesium ion will have either 10 or 11 electrons.
Mass of protons + Mass of neutrons + mass or electrons - Binding energy of the atom. Do not forget to subtract the binding energy. If you teacher never mentioned this, then he/she is wrong. You always have to subtract the binding energy to find the real mass.
This would be magnesium, based on the number of protons. Since the protons is equal to the number of electrons it is a neutral atom. Given the number of protons in the atom, the isotope would be magnesium-26.
The mass number is the number of protons plus neutrons. Magnesium is element number 12, so it has 12 protons. Its mass number with 14 neutrons is 12 + 14 which is 26.
This would be magnesium, based on the number of protons. Since the protons is equal to the number of electrons it is a neutral atom. Given the number of protons in the atom, the isotope would be magnesium-26.
Manesium 24 has 12 electrons, protons and neutrons.
I believe it is two isotopes of an element. Because an isotope is the amount of protons. with a different number of neutrons in the nucleus. hopefully this will help :)
protons and neutrons are located in the atom's nucleus.
there are 12 protons in an atom of magnesium:-)
Protons and Neutrons.
The protons and neutrons of an atom are found in the nucleus of the atom.
