What do you find when you subtract the proton number from the nucleon number?

In chemistry and physics, a nucleon is one of the two particles that make up the atomic nucleus. Protons are one of the nucleons, Neutrons are the other nucleon.
Thus by subtracting the number of Protons in the nucleus (the Proton number) from the total number of nucleons (the nucleon number) you will get the total number of Neutrons (the neutron number) in the atoms nucleus.

How do you find Celsius from kelvin?
Just subtract 273.15 from Kelvin to get degrees Celsius.
To find acceleration you subtract what?
To find acceleration you subtract initial velocity from final velocity and divide it by time.
How do i determine the daughter nucleus formed when a radon-222 nucleus emits a alpha particle?
First, you figure out how many protons and neutrons Radon-222 has. Find the atomic number - that's the number of protons. Subtract that from 222 to get the number of neutrons.From that, you subtract an alpha particle - i.e., 2 protons and 2 neutrons. Use the number of protons to look up the element. Add protons and neutrons to get the isotope number. As an alternative, since you don't really need the number of neutrons, you can just subtract 2 protons, and a total of 4 nucleids from the parent nucleus.
How do you get the number of neutrons in a element?
To find the number of neutrons in an atom you would subtract the protons from the atomic mass. The number of protons is equal to the atomic number. When dealing with an element with no net charge, the atomic number = the number of protons and also the number of electrons. The atomic mass - the atomic number (number of protons and electrons) = the number of neutrons
When force arrows are in opposite directions what do you do to find the net force?
subtract the magnitudes
How do you determine the number of neutron in any element?
Find the weight on the periodic table then subtract the proton numbers.
What would subtract to find the number of neutrons in an atom?
You would subtract the atomic number from the mass number.
To find the number of neutrons in an atom you would subtract what?
You would subtract the atomic number from the mass number.
How do you find the net charge of an atom?
To find the charge to mass ratio (specific charge) of an atom, you have to find both the charge of the nucleus and the mass of the nucleus charge of nucleus = proton number x charge of 1 proton (1.6x10^-19) mass of nucleus = nucleon number x mass of 1 proton (1.67x10^-27) the you have to divide the charge of the nucleus by he mass of nucleus e.g Q/M the answer should be in C/kg or Ckg^-1
What is the total binding energy and binding energy per nucleon on helium-3 The Answer is BE 7.72MeV and BENUC 2.57MeV. I don't know the steps to get there?
To find the total binding energy Use this formula: B= (number of neutrons)(neutron mass)+ (number of protons)(proton mass) - (Atomic Mass of helium). Then to keep the units correct, multiply that entire expression by 931.5 MeV/u. This is the TOTAL binding energy, and the binding energy per nucleon can be found by dividing the number you calculate above by the total number of protons and neutrons.
How do you find the number of protons there are in hydrgen?
the proton is 1
When you subtract the smallest number from the greatest number you will find the?
Range.
How do you find electrons?
you can find electrons by subtract the atomic number and atomic mass.
What does it mean to find the range of the values?
take the largest number in the sample and subtract the smallest number that is the range
How do you find 95 percent of a number?
Divide the number by 5 and subtract the answer from the original number...
What do you do to find the range of numbers?
you take the biggest number and subtract it by the smallest number.
How do you fine the number of neutrons?
you find the atomic mass, and subtract it by the number of protons
