The atomic number of aluminium is 13. So it has 13 protons and 13 electrons.
protrons:13
nuetrons:14
Looking at a periodic table, you see Al is number 13. It has 13 protons in the nucleus,so to have a total mass number of 24, it must have 11 nuetrons. Mass number = # protons + # nuetrons
The mass number
mass number
by number of protons and nuetrons
well you look at the periodic table of elements. the atomic number equals the number of protons. Then subtract the number of protons from the atomic mass (both protons and nuetrons have atomic mass units of 1 and electrons equal 0). That will give you the number of nuetrons.
mass number = protons + nuetrons
Looking at a periodic table, you see Al is number 13. It has 13 protons in the nucleus,so to have a total mass number of 24, it must have 11 nuetrons. Mass number = # protons + # nuetrons
The mass number = the number of protons + the number of nuetrons. Each of these particles is considered to have a mass of 1 amu. (atomic mass unit) For example, Aluminum has 13 protons and 14 nuetrons, so it's mass number = 27.
The mass number
mass number = protons + nuetrons
atomic number is the number of protons. the sum of protons and neutrons is known as mass number
mass number
12,13, and 26
Mass number will help you. Mass number is the total of neutrons and protons.
