If atomic mass of 16 and atomic number of 8 this means the number of neutrons in this type of oxygen is?
The atomic number refers to the number of protons in an element. The mass number can be used to indicate the number of neutrons because both protons and neutrons have a mass of about 1. An oxygen atom has 8 protons and 8 neutrons.
What element has an atomic mass of 8 and 8 neutrons?
the element that has 8 neutrons is Oxygen
Gas atomic mass 16 8 nuetrons?
The gas with atomic mass of 16 and has 8 neutrons is oxygen.
Is 18 O an isotope?
Number of Neutrons = Atomic mass minus Atomic Number. Neutrons = 18[Atomic Mass] - 8[Atomic Number] Neutrons = 10
Is it true The number of neutrons in an atom is referred to as the atomic number of that element?
No, the atomic number refers to the protons of an atom, and for the most part the electrons. The atomic mass refers to the neutrons of an element in a way; the atomic mass consists of protons and neutrons, so if you subtract the amount of protons from the atomic mass, you get the amount of neutrons. For example oxygen has an average atomic mass of 16.01 and has 8 protons, so 16.01 atomic mass-8 protons=8.01 average neutrons. Now this is just for the average amount of neutrons, which is changed by isotopes (atoms with different amounts of neutrons).

How many neutrons in o16?
There are 8 neutrons in an oxygen-16 atom. Oxygen has an atomic number of 8 and with an atomic mass of 16, it is simple to calculate the number of neutrons by subtracting the atomic number (8) from the atomic mass (16). The 16 - 8 = 8.
How many protons are in an oxygen-16 nucleus?
The atomic number of oxygen is 8, which means that there are 8 protons in the nucleus of an oxygen atom. Mass number = protons + neutrons, therefore neutrons = mass number - protons = 16 - 8 = 8 neutrons.
What element has an atomic mass of 8 and 8 neutrons?
the element that has 8 neutrons is Oxygen
Gas atomic mass 16 8 nuetrons?
The gas with atomic mass of 16 and has 8 neutrons is oxygen.
Is 18 O an isotope?
Number of Neutrons = Atomic mass minus Atomic Number. Neutrons = 18[Atomic Mass] - 8[Atomic Number] Neutrons = 10
He atomic number of oxygen is 8 What is the mass number of an oxygen atom with 7 neutrons?
The atomic mass of oxygen (8 protons + 7 neutrons) is 15.For finding the atomic mass of any element, we have to get sum of number of protons & number of neutrons. Atomic Mass (A) : p+n.p = no. of protons.n = no. of neutrons.
Is it true The number of neutrons in an atom is referred to as the atomic number of that element?
No, the atomic number refers to the protons of an atom, and for the most part the electrons. The atomic mass refers to the neutrons of an element in a way; the atomic mass consists of protons and neutrons, so if you subtract the amount of protons from the atomic mass, you get the amount of neutrons. For example oxygen has an average atomic mass of 16.01 and has 8 protons, so 16.01 atomic mass-8 protons=8.01 average neutrons. Now this is just for the average amount of neutrons, which is changed by isotopes (atoms with different amounts of neutrons).
What element has atomic mass of 16 and 8 neutrons?
If you had looked in the periodic table, you would have seen that the element Oxygen has an atomic mass of 16 (or more precisely 15.9994) and if you were to take that atomic mass and subtract the atomic number from it (i.e. 8) you would get a difference of 8 which is the number of neutrons it contains. In short, oxygen is that element.
The atomic weight of an element whose atoms contain 8 protons 8 electrons and 8 neutrons is?
That would be an oxygen isotope and it's Atomic Mass would be 16. (Protons + Neutrons) The mass of an electron is so minuscule that it is not even factored into the mass.
How can you find out the number of neutrons in an atoms nucleus?
By the process of elimination. For example, The atomic weight of an atom is just the number of its protons, and the atomic mass is the total weight of protons and neutrons in the atom. So, the atomic weight of Oxygen is 8(protons) and the atomic mass is 16(protons + neutrons) so we can tell that there are 8 protons and 8 neutrons.
Sn isotope of oxygen has an atomic number of 8 and an atomic weight of 18. how many neutrons does it have?
The atomic number of an isotope is the number of protons it contains, whereas the mass number is the total mass of the nucleus, which is the combined number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. To find the number of neutrons, you must therefore subtract the atomic number of the isotope from the mass number of the isotope.In the above example, the atomic number is 8 and the mass number is 18. This isotope is known as O18. The number of neutrons in the isotope is: Mass number - Atomic number = Number of neutrons18 - 8 = 10
