Atomic Number :-
atomic number of an element is the number of protons present in the nucleus of the atom. (since atoms are electrically neutral the number of protons in an atom is equal to the number of electrons in an atom)
Atomic Mass :-
atomic mass of an element is the number which tells us how many times an atom of that element is heavier than an atom of hydrogen (whose atomic weight is taken as unity [1])

Which is the average of the mass numbers of an element's isotopes?
the Atomic Mass
The atomic mass of an atom is equal to the sum of numbers of what?
protons + electrons= atomic mass NUMBER, not the atomic mass.
What is Relation between atomic and mass numbers?
mass number=atomic number+no. of neutrons
Do isotopes of an element have the same atomic mass but different atomic number?
The different mass numbers are due to different numbers of neutrons.
What is the average of the mass numbers of an elements isotopes?
the Atomic Mass
What is the average of the mass numbers of isotopes of an element?
the atomic mass
What are the atomic numbers and atomic mass of neon?
Neon is a non meta element. Atomic mass of it is 20 Atomic number of it is1 180.
What is the difference between isobar and isotope?
isobars are elements with same mass numbers (Atomic Mass) and different atomic number (number of proton or electron)
How did they come up with the symbols for atomic mass and atomic number?
There are no symbols for atomic mass and number. They're just written as numbers.
How do you get atomic mass?
Atomic mass is found by adding together the individual masses of the numbers of protons, neutrons, and electrons in the atom.--> Atomic Mass = protons + neutrons
Why atomic mass is different from the mass numbers?
atomic mass is the number of protons in an atom mass number is the number of protons plus neutrons in an atom
Isotopes of hydrogen have different atomic what?
Atomic mass and different numbers of neutrons.
