The number of positively charged particles in atoms of a given element?
Positive charged particles in atomic nucleus - protons. Number of protons = atomic number (The number of a given element in the Mendeleev table)
What particles make up the atomic mass number of an element?
The atomic mass number of an element is determined by mass of the nucleus of an atom. Therefore the particles that make up the nucleus determine the mass number. These particles are protons and neutrons.The mass of the protons and neutrons do not vary between elements, but the number of each in the nucleus varies between elements and between isotopes of the same element.
How was the atomic number and the atomic mass determined?
the atomic number is determined by looking above top of the letter[s] on an element on the periodic table of elements
What dose the atomic number of an element represent?
The atomic number is the number of protons present in the atom's nucleus
Protons in the nucleus?
The number of protons in the atomic nucleus is equal to the atomic number of an element.
The number of positively charged particles in atoms of a given element?
Positive charged particles in atomic nucleus - protons. Number of protons = atomic number (The number of a given element in the Mendeleev table)
The atomic number for an element is the total number of subatomic particles?
False; the atomic number is the total number if protons in the nucleus only.
What particles make up the atomic mass number of an element?
The atomic mass number of an element is determined by mass of the nucleus of an atom. Therefore the particles that make up the nucleus determine the mass number. These particles are protons and neutrons.The mass of the protons and neutrons do not vary between elements, but the number of each in the nucleus varies between elements and between isotopes of the same element.
The atomic number is the same as the same as the number of these particles what are they?
The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus. The protons are positive particles, and so the number of them is matched by the number of electrons orbiting the nucleus. The organisation of the electrons determines how an element behaves when it reacts.
What is an element's atomic number?
An element's atomic number is the # of protons in its nucleus.
The atomic number is the same as the number of these two particles?
The "Atomic number" of an element corresponds to the number of only the protons in the nucleus of its atoms. Add to that the number of neutrons that are also in there, and you have the "Atomic weight".
The atomic number is an indication of the number in the nucleus of the atom of an element?
The atomic number is an indication of the number of PROTONS in the nucleus of the atom of an element.
How was the atomic number and the atomic mass determined?
the atomic number is determined by looking above top of the letter[s] on an element on the periodic table of elements
Element's atomic number tell about that element?
The atomic number tells you the number of protons in the nucleus of that element.
The Atomic number of an atom is?
No. Atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. Each element has a unique atomic number that identifies it as that element.
What dose the atomic number of an element represent?
The atomic number is the number of protons present in the atom's nucleus
Protons in the nucleus?
The number of protons in the atomic nucleus is equal to the atomic number of an element.
