in the nucleus, mass 1
protons --- rel. mass 1 amu, rel. charge +1, location in the nucleus. neutrons --- rel. mass 1 amu, rel. charge 0, location in the nucleus. electrons --- rel. mass 0 amu, rel. charge -1, location outside the nucleus.
Neutrons are located with Protons in the Nucleus.
The number of protons
protons --- rel. mass 1 amu, rel. charge +1, location in the nucleus. neutrons --- rel. mass 1 amu, rel. charge 0, location in the nucleus. electrons --- rel. mass 0 amu, rel. charge -1, location outside the nucleus.
Atomic Mass: protons AND neutrons atomic number: just protons
Mass number is about the neutrons and protons. The total of neutrons and protons.
The mass number = protons + neutrons
Mass of an atom = mass of protons + mass of neutrons
mass number = protons + nuetrons
Protons and nuetrons Dom says: Protons and Neutrons.
The major contribution to the mass of an atom is from protons and neutrons; electrons have a known but negligible mass.
Not necessarily. An estimated form of atomic mass is protons + neutrons.
