The element is Uranium , the symbol is (U). The charge is +1 because:
Atomic number(Z): # of protons (92), which also tells you what element it is in the Periodic Table.
Ion charge: # of protons (92) - # of electrons (91) = 1
Mass number(A): # of protons (92) + # of neutrons (143) =235
In a uranium-238 atom, the number in the isotope name stands for the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. So in this case, uranium-238 has 92 protons (atomic number) and 146 neutrons (238 - 92).
Uranium being element 92, it has 92 protons. If not ionized it also has 92 electrons. U-241 has 241 protons and neutrons together, so it would have 149 neutrons.
No, it is just the other way around!All isotopes of one particular element have the same number of protons (specific for that element) but are differing in neutron number.Example:Uranium has 92 protons (same as atomic number),butisotope U(235) has 143 neutrons and 92 protons (143+92=235)andisotope U(238) has 146 neutrons and 92 protons (146+92=238).
92. All isotopes of Uranium have 92 protons. The number of protons in each element is represented by the atomic number of that element. Uranium is atomic # 92, so it will always have 92 protons. The difference in atomic mass (that's the 234 here) is due to difference in number of neutrons. Atomic mass is calculated (#of protons + # of neutrons), so Uranium-234 has 92 protons and 142 neutrons. Uranium-235 would have 92 protons and 143 neutrons and so forth. The number of protons contained in the nucleus of ANY atom will remain constant in ALL isotopes of the same element. Ex. Carbon-12 has 6 protons and 6 neutrons, Carbon-13 has 6 protons and 7 neutrons, etc. Carbon has an atomic number of 6. If the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom were different, it would no longer be the same element. Ex. Carbon - atomic #6 - has 6 protons with one more proton in the nucleus, it would have 7, and have atomic # 7.... then it would just be...... Nitrogen! Nitrogen - atomic #7 - has 7 protons
U-238 has 92 electrons. In the Periodic Table it is found at the bottom of the table, in the Actinides Period. Atomic No. 92 is U (Uranium) This number tells us that there are 92 protons and 92 electrons in an atom of uranium . The Atmoic Mass is 238 . This is made up of the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of U . Hence the number of neutrons is 238 - 92 = 146. Uranium exhibits several isotopes. U-235 ; 92 protons , 92 electrons & 143 neutrons U-236 ; 92 protons, 92 electrons & 144 neutrons U-238 ; 92 protons, 92 electrons & 146 neutrons. Notice for all the isotopes of 'U' the number of protons and electrons remains the same at '92' each. It is the different number of neutrons that make for different isotopes. The name 'Uranium' comes from the planet 'Uranus' , which it turn comes from Classical Greek God, 'Uranus', the God of the sky. U
Protons = 92 Electrons = 92 Neutrons = 146 The number of electrons and protons in a neutral atom are each equal to the atomic number of the element (92). The number of neutrons equals the atomic weight minus the number of protons (238 - 92 = 146).Uranium has 92 protons, 92 electrons, and usually 147 neutrons, though another isotope has 143 neutrons.
Element number 92 is Uranium and there are two main isotopes - U235 and U238. In U235 there are 92 protons so there are 235 - 92 = 143 neutrons. In U238 there are thus 146 neutrons
Uranium, i think, its also has 92 protons and 92 electrons
92 protons 92 electrons, 125 to 150 neutrons depending on the isotope (natural or artificial). For the natural isotopes of uranium: Uranium 238 has: 92 protons, 92 electrons and 146 neutrons. Uranium 235 has: 92 protons, 92 electrons and 143 neutrons. Uranium 234 has: 92 protons, 92 electrons and 142 neutrons.
92 protons, 92 electrons.146 neutrons in U-238 isotope.
For the natural isotopes of uranium: Uranium 238 has: 92 protons, 92 electrons and 146 neutrons. Uranium 235 has: 92 protons, 92 electrons and 143 neutrons. Uranium 234 has: 92 protons, 92 electrons and 142 neutrons.
The element uranium (U) has 92 protons in its nucleus. That's where its atomic number comes from. When we see an isotope of an element written in "standard" form, the element name or symbol will be followed by the atomic mass (atomic weight) of the isotope. This number is basically the number of protons and neutrons (called nucleons when they are in an atomic nucleus) in an atom. In this case, we have U-235 and U-238. In the first case, 235 - 92 = 143, so U-235 has 143 neutrons. In the second case, 238 - 92 = 146, so U-238 has 146 neutrons. See the Related Questions below for how to find the number of neutrons in any atom.
Uranium 240 has 92 protons and electrons, but 148 neutrons because the atomic number is 92 and the atomic mass is 240.
In a uranium-238 atom, the number in the isotope name stands for the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. So in this case, uranium-238 has 92 protons (atomic number) and 146 neutrons (238 - 92).
238U
how many particles are found in the nucleus of a uranium atom? 92 protons and x neutrons; the number of the neutrons is dependent of the isotope atomic mass. Also 92 electrons.
Uranium, atomic number 92, has several isotopes, and 238U is just one of them. Remember that a nucleon is one of the particles that make up the nucleus of an atom, and that means a proton or a neutron. In the case of this isotope of uranium, it has the 92 protons we'd expect for uranium, and it has 146 neutrons in its nucleus along with those protons. That's 238 necleons in the nucleus if 238U. Wikipedia has more information on uranium and on the nucleon, and links are provided.
