Atomic mass of an atom is determined by the combined masses of?
the atomic mass is determined by adding the weight of protons & neutrons
How is the atomic mass determined?
Atomic Mass is the number of protons in an atom plus the number of neutrons in the same atom.
Why is the atomic mass scale also called the relative atomic mass scale?
All atomic masses are determined by comparing them to the mass of an atom of carbon12. One atomic mass unit equals one twelfth the mass of an atom of carbon12. That's why its called relativeatomic mass.
What is the atomic number of an atom determained by the number of what?
The atomic number of an atom is determined by the number of protons it has.
Atomic mass is determined by the number of protons plus the number of?
Atomic mass is determined by the number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus.
Atomic mass of an atom is determined by the combined masses of?
the atomic mass is determined by adding the weight of protons & neutrons
How were the atomic number and the atomic masses of the elements determined?
Atomic masses are determined by mass spectrometry. The atomic number is identic with the number of protons in the atom - depends on position in the periodic table.
How is the atomic mass determined?
Atomic Mass is the number of protons in an atom plus the number of neutrons in the same atom.
Why is the atomic mass scale also called the relative atomic mass scale?
All atomic masses are determined by comparing them to the mass of an atom of carbon12. One atomic mass unit equals one twelfth the mass of an atom of carbon12. That's why its called relativeatomic mass.
The atomic number is determined by?
The atomic mass is the can be determined by the number of protons in an atom. Remember that a proton has an atomic mas number of 1 AMU (atomic mass unit). (The total mass of an atom is the protons, neutrons and electrons combined.)
What atom is standard for atomic masses?
Carbon (12).
What is the atomic mass of an atom?
The atomic mass of an atom is the combined mass of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
How can an atom's protons be determined?
By the atomic mass
What is the atomic number of an atom determained by the number of what?
The atomic number of an atom is determined by the number of protons it has.
Atomic mass is determined by the number of protons plus the number of?
Atomic mass is determined by the number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus.
The atomic number of an atom is determined by the number of?
Protons
Is what is determined by the number of protons in an atom?
The Atomic Number
