Protons and neutrons have relatively equal masses. Electrons have a much smaller mass than the others.
Yes, the mass of the system is equal to the sum of the masses of the individual particles. The total mass of a system of particles is simply the sum of the masses of all the particles that constitute the system.
Both the proton and the neutron have a mass of approximately one atomic mass unit (amu). The proton has a mass of 1.00728 amu and the neutron has a mass of 1.00867 amu.
Number of protons in the nucleus is the atomic number.
Protons are the subatomic particles represented by the atomic number of an element. The atomic number is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, which determines the element's identity on the periodic table.
The atomic number is the amount of protons which will equal the amount of electrons. The average atomic mass minus the number of protons will equal the amount of neutrons.
The number of protons is equal to the atomic number of a chemical element.
The sum of the masses of the atoms in an ionic compound is equal to the formula mass of the compound. It is calculated by adding the atomic masses of all the atoms present in the formula unit.
The atomic number is equal to the number of protons and neutrons in a neutral atom.
Different atoms of the same element possessing different atomic masses but having same atomic number are known as Isotopes. Since the isotopic atoms have the same atomic number, they must contain an equal number of protons. As their atomic masses are different, there must be a difference in the number of neutrons they possess. They will show similar chemical properties but their physical properties will be different due to different masses.
No, the designations of hydrogen for the proton and neutron for the neutron do not imply that these two particles are of equal mass. A proton is about 1836 times heavier than a neutron. The terms "hydrogen" and "neutron" were historically used to describe these particles based on their properties and roles in atomic structure, rather than their masses.
Equal masses will have equal inertia.
The number of neutrons is equal to the atomic mass of an isotope minus the atomic number (or the protons number) of the element. The atomic number of mendelevium is 101 and Md has isotopes with atomic masses between 245 and 260.
