Yes it is. It is an isotope of the atom / element tin.


How many nutrons does tin have?

Typically, 69. However it can vary by isotope.


What isotope is most common in tin?

Sn-120 is the most common (33%).


How man neutrons dose tin have?

Just as with any other element, tin has different isotopes, each with a different number of neutrons. Depending on the isotope, a tin atom can have between 49 and 87 neutrons. For more details, read the Wikipedia article on "isotopes of tin". If you don't know what an "isotope" is, you should read the article on "Isotopes" first.


What has 50 protons with 116 mass number?

The element with 50 protons and a mass number of 116 is tin (Sn).


What transition element has 50 neutrons?

Isotope 89Y and isotope 90Zr has 50 neutrons.


Element having maximum number of isotope?

Tin (Sn) has the most number of isotopes with over 30 known isotopes. This is because it has a large atomic number and therefore a greater range of possible isotopes.


Atomic number 50 and mass number 125 contains?

The element with atomic number 50 is tin (Sn). The mass number of 125 indicates that this particular isotope of tin contains 75 neutrons (mass number - atomic number).


How many protons and neutrons in isotopes of tin?

Every atom of tin has 50 protons in its nucleus. And there will be 50 electrons around a neutral atom of tin. The number of neutrons varies because there are different isotopes of tin. Tin is interesting in that it is the element with the greatest number of stable isotopes of all the elements in the periodic table. It has 10 stable isotopes, and they are tin-112 (62 neutrons), tin-114 (64 neutrons), tin-115 (65 neutrons), tin-116 (66 neutrons), tin-117, (67 neutrons), tin-118, (68 neurtons), tin-119, (69 neutrons), tin-120 (70 neutrons), tin-122 (72 neutrons), and tin-124 (74 neutrons). There are other isotopes of tin ranging from tin-99 to tin-137, and the neutron count in any one of them can be found by subtracting the atomic number of tin (which is 50, or the number of protons in the nucleus), from the mass number of the isotop. For instance, if we are interested in tin-121, it has 121 minus 50 or 71 neutrons in it. You'll find links below for more information.


Is tin a rare element on earth?

Nearly 100% of tin ordinarily found in nature is of ten stable isotopes. Traces of radioactive 126Sn are found, but they are not significant. Like all elements, tin has synthetic radioactive isotopes.


How many neutrons are in the nucleus of the isotopes of tin-120?

The isotope of tin-120 has 70 neutrons in its nucleus. Tin, element 50 on the periodic table, typically has 50 protons. By subtracting the atomic number (protons) from the atomic mass (protons + neutrons), we can determine the number of neutrons.


What is the stable isotope that is formed by the breakdown of a radioactive isotope?

The stable isotope formed by the breakdown of a radioactive isotope is called a daughter isotope. This process is known as radioactive decay, where a radioactive isotope transforms into a stable daughter isotope through the emission of particles or energy.
