Hydrogen
The element with the smallest atomic mass is hydrogen, which has an atomic mass of approximately 1.008 atomic mass units. Its atomic number is 1, indicating that it has one proton in its nucleus. Hydrogen is the simplest and most abundant element in the universe.
The element symbol represents one mole of element , atomic number represents number of protons, atomic mass represents sum of protons and neutrons.
by subtracting the atomic number from the mass number. the atomic number is the one under the element's symbol and the mass number is the one above the element's symbol.
The element with an atomic mass number of one is hydrogen. Hydrogen is the lightest and simplest element in the periodic table, with a single proton in its nucleus.
The average mass of one atom of an element is given by its atomic mass, which is listed on the periodic table in atomic mass units (amu). It represents the average mass of all isotopes of that element, taking into account their relative abundance.
Both argon and cobalt have this characteristic.
Tungsten is a non meta element. Atomic mass of it is 74. Atomic number of it is 183.
The atomic number, or Proton number, defines which element it is. So by definition, two different elements must have a different atomic number, or else they'd be the same element. Atomic mass is the number of protons + neutrons in the element's nucleus. Since the number of neutrons in the nucleus can vary, even within a single element (as isotopes) it is possible to have one isotope of one element sharing an atomic mass with an isotope of another element.
One takes the atomic mass of that element (the number under the element on a periodic table, measured in amu). That number is the number of grams of the element it takes to make one mole. in other words:X grams (of element)(Atomic Mass of element)= --------------1 mol (of element)
One should look up the mass number of an isotope of that particular element and then substract the atomic number from it: this leaves the number of neutrons.Note that atomic mass is not the same as mass number!
AlphaThe atomic number goes down by two and the atomic mass number goes down by four.Beta-The atomic number goes up by one and the atomic mass number stays the same.Beta+The atomic number goes down by one and the atomic mass number stays the same.
The number on the periodic table representing the mass in grams of one mole of atoms in an element is called the molar mass, which is expressed in grams per mole. It is numerically equal to the atomic mass in atomic mass units (amu) of the element.
