How many neutrons are in atom of sodium?
There is no "average," though I suppose you could find one by adding up the number of neutrons and dividing by the number of elements... Atoms belong to certain elements and are classified by the amount of neutrons they have. Each element has atoms which have a different number of neutrons in them (such as Hydrogen, the atoms of which have one neutron each.) Also, the number of neutrons always equals the number of protons the atom has, so if you want to know how many neutrons a specific atom has, you can always look it up on the Periodic Table of Elements.
What elements has 2 isotopes 6 neutrons and 8 other neutrons?
The element with 6 neutrons and 8 other neutrons is carbon. Carbon-12 is the most common isotope of carbon, with 6 protons and 6 neutrons. Carbon-14 is another isotope of carbon, with 6 protons and 8 neutrons.
Do Elements in a group have the same number of neutrons?
No, none of two elements in any group have the same number of neutrons. But there are such elements across a period, and they are known as isotones. Some examples are; carbon-12 and nitrogen-13 oxygen-18 and fluorine-19 phosphorus-31 and sulfur-32
Do Elements in the same group have the same number of neutrons?
No, the Neutrons vary with the element, in the same group as well, it depends on the isotope, like lithium for example, the most commonly occurring isotope has 4 neutrons, whereas sodium has 12
How many neutrons does this elements have?
117

Are there neutrons in man made elements?
All chemical elements (excepting the isotope 1H) contain neutrons.

Lighter elements have more or less number of protons than neutrons?
Lighter elements tend to have neutrons equal to protonms or only a slight excess. Heavier elements have an excess of neutrons over protons
What elements make sodium?
Sodium is an element. It is not made of any other elements. If you are reffering to the fundamental particles that make sodium, it is 11 protons, 11 electrons and any number of neutrons, depending on the isotope. 11 or 12 neutrons would be acceptable as an answer.
Do Elements in the same group have the same number of neutrons?
No, the Neutrons vary with the element, in the same group as well, it depends on the isotope, like lithium for example, the most commonly occurring isotope has 4 neutrons, whereas sodium has 12
What is the same 2 elements with different neutrons?
Elements with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons are called isotopes. For example Carbon has many different isotopes, but the isotope that is most abundant in nature is Carbon - 12.

Do atoms have neutrons in them?
Atoms of all elements can have neutrons in them. Only the element hydrogen has an isotope whose atoms do not contain neutrons, but all other isotopes of hydrogen have neutrons in them. In the heavier elements the number of neutrons always exceeds the number of protons in the atom.
How many elements have 6 neutrons?
Many isotopes have 6 neutronsș carbon-12 is a typical example.
Are neutrons in the atoms of different elements alike?
neutrons of all atoms are alike
