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 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
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.
No, the atomic mass is not equal to the atomic number. The atomic number represents the number of protons in an atom's nucleus, while the atomic mass is the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. The atomic mass can differ from the atomic number, especially due to the presence of neutrons.
No, the atomic weight of an element is not equal to the number of protons minus the number of neutrons. Atomic weight is the average weight of an element's isotopes taking into account their abundance, which includes the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
Typically to find the number of neutrons, you first round the atomic mass to the nearest whole number. After that to you subtract the number of protons (which is the same as the atomic number) from the newly rounded atomic mass and the resulting number is the number of neutrons. lets use Carbon for example: Atomic mass: 12.01 Atomic mass rounded: 12.00 Number of Protons (same as atomic number): 6 (Rounded atomic mass - number of protons)=6 So Carbon has 6 neutrons. Hope that is easy enough to understand.
