In an atom, the number of protons is always similar to its atomic number. (The number of nutrons may be similar or different.)
false
It is equal to the difference between atomic number and Atomic Mass number. A+
If you add the number of protons to the number of neutrons in an atom, you have calculated that atom's atomic mass.
Electrons are equal to the number of protons and the atomic number. To find the number of neutrons you must subtract the atomic number from the mass number.
The number of neutrons in an atom is equal to the mass number minus the atomic number. The mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus, while the atomic number represents the number of protons. Therefore, the equation can be expressed as: Neutrons = Mass number - Atomic number.
The Atomic Mass is equal to the number of protons plus neutrons. So if you know the atomic number then you can find out the number of neutrons Atomic # is the amount of Protons or Electrons Atomic Mass- Number of protons plus neutrons Atomic Mass-Atomic Number = Amount of neutrons
The number of neutrons in an atom is equal to the mass number minus the atomic number. The mass number represents the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus, while the atomic number indicates the number of protons. Therefore, the formula can be expressed as: Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number.
The atomic number of an element is defined by the number of protons in its nucleus. Therefore, protons equal the atomic number, while neutrons do not; instead, the number of neutrons can vary among isotopes of the same element. The atomic number determines the element's identity, whereas the total number of nucleons (protons and neutrons) gives the atomic mass.
Atomic weight/ mass = number of protons + number of neutrons
The atomic mass of an element is equal to the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus. It is not directly related to the atomic number, which represents the number of protons in an atom.
False as a generalization but true for some isotopes. The atomic number is the number of protons in a nucleus, which may coincidentally be the same as the number of neutrons but is not required to be.
It has 10 neutrons since the atomic number is equal to the number of protons and the isotope number is the number of neutrons and protons together.
