The mass number tells you the number of Protons and Neutrons in an atomic nucleus.
The mass number of an element tells us the total number of nucleons present in an atom. That is, the sum of the protons + neutrons.
Type your answer here..The Atomic Mass Unit tells us that ,How heavy a substance as compare to the other.
The mass number of the element chlorine is 35.5. The mass number (nucleon number) of an isotope of an element tells us the sum of the number of neutrons and protons. It is a decimal because mass numbers of elements are averages, based on the different isotopic forms of the element and their relative abundance.
it tells you how much mass is in that object
it tells if its a solid - gas - liquid
As a first approximation it tells us simply the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. The electrons and binding energy of the nucleus contribute a very much smaller amount to the mass. Since the number of protons in a given element is constant (the atomic number), we can also tell the number of neutrons in an atom by subtracting the atomic number from the atomic mass (approximately). Since different isotopes of each element have different numbers of neutrons (but the same number of protons), they will have different atomic masses. The given atomic weight for a particular element is usually based on the relative abundance of the isotopes as they occur in nature. It is also true that elements with very high elemental weights tend to be unstable, that is, radioactive. (Referring to the Wikipedia entry on "atomic mass" I see that what I have defined here may include some of the sense of "atomic weight", however the difference is subtle. See that entry for further clarification.)
The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus.The Atomic Number of an element helps us to locate that particuarler element on the Periodic Table of Elements.
The mass number tells us the number (the sum) of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.
The periodic table is in order of atomic mass
it tells us that the number is equal to the number of protons plus the number of nuetrons in the nucleus of an atom

It tells us the total mass of Protons and Neutrons, in AMU, Atomic Mass Units.
Need the atomic number - that would tell us the number of protons and from there the number of neutrons can be calculated. The question as posed does not have enough information to answer.
The atomic number is the number of protons that the element has.

Elements in the same period has same number of valence shells.There are 7 periods in Periodic Table.
