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.


What particles are used to determined the mass of an atom?

Mass of an atom = mass of protons + mass of neutrons


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.


Which of the following particles is used to determine the mass of an atom?

Mass of an atom is determined by the no. of protons+ no. of neutrons in the atom.


Which particle determines the atomic number of an element?

The atomic number of an element is determined by the number of protons.


How do you find the number of particles in a compound when given the mass?

The mass is the number of particles. Especially with atoms on the periodic table. The atomic mass is the number of proton and neutrons in the nucleus.


How is the number of moles determined from a known mass?

Number of moles = Total mass/Molar mass


How is the measurement of weight different from the measure of mass?

Weight is affected by the gravitational pull of a large body of mass while mass is affected by how many particles you have in your body. Weight is determined by the equation Fg=mg while mass is determined from a mass balance.


How is the measure of weight different from measurement of mass?

Weight is affected by the gravitational pull of a large body of mass while mass is affected by how many particles you have in your body. Weight is determined by the equation Fg=mg while mass is determined from a mass balance.


How is a number of moles of an element determined from a known mass?

The number of moles is mass in g/molar mass in g.


A property that is determined by the number of particles present in a system but that is independent of the properties of the particles themselves?

Colligative Property! :)
