The number of protons and neutrons in an atom?
Depends on the atom. The atomic number will give you the number of protons. The atomic weight will give you approximately the number of protons and neutrons combined.
Give the symbol and number of protons in one atom of?
Li-3 protons Br-35 protons
Does the number of electrons in an atom give its atomic number?
The number of protons is equal to atomic number; in a neutral atom the number of electrons is also equal to the numbers of protons.
Does number of electrons in an atom give it atomic number?
The number of protons is equal to atomic number; in a neutral atom the number of electrons is also equal to the numbers of protons.
What particles in an atom give its charge?
Protons, they have a positive charge.
What is the neutron and proton responsible for in an atom?
Protons make up the identity of the element and give it its unique properties. Protons have a positive charge. Neutrons give an atom additional mass, and the number of neutrons in an atom make it an isotope of an element. Neutrons have no charge.
The protons and neutrons in an atom add up to give the atom's?
Mass number/Atomic Mass
Where are the protons in an atom?
The protons are in the center of a atom.
Why we do assume that there are the same number of protons and elecrtrons in an atom?
Atoms are electrically neutral. If the protons and electrons were unequal, there would be an overall charge. That would give an ion, not an atom.
What does the protons and neutrons tell you about the oxygen atom?
protons will tell the atomic number (8) the sum of protons and neutrons will give the mass number of the element
What two parts of an atom give it most of it's weight?
protons and neutrons
Number of protons in a an atom of an atom?
The number of protons in an atom is its atomic number.
