Where can you find a chart listing the amount of protons nutrons and electrons are in an atom?

All you need is the periodic table and a brain. The number of protons is the atomic number(located at the top left hand side of the square for each element) The number of nutrons is the the Atomic Mass minus the Atomic Number.


How do you calculate the mass number?

mass number= protons+nutrons


How is mass number obtain?

Sum of protons and nutrons


Atom of a particular element has a unique and characteristic number of these particles?

Each element has a unique number of protons. If another atom has the same number of protons as that element, it is the same element.


How do you find an element through its mass?

you would have to know how many protons, nutrons, and/or electrons are in the element. then you subtract the number from its mass and you get the other number. p=e=am.p+n=m.


How many nutrons does zirconium have?

The number of neutrons for any given element varies, depending on the isotopes. Search the Wikipedia, or Google, for "Isotopes of Zirconium" for the isotopes of this particular element. The list of isotopes will give you the atomic mass (protons + neutrons) for the different isotopes; subtract the atomic number (which is the number of protons) to get the number of neutrons for each isotope.


Do protons of an element vary?

All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons. Atoms of different elements have different numbers of protons. The number of protons determines the element.


Is the number of neutrons equal to the atomic number?

In an atom, the number of protons is always similar to its atomic number. (The number of nutrons may be similar or different.)


How many protons and neutron does a nucleus have?

The number of protons an atom has depends on which element it is. Every element has a different number of protons. And within each element, there will be a different number of neutrons, creating isotopes.


Atom of an element with a different number of protons?

This is not possible. The number of protons identifies an element, and all of the atoms of the same element have the same number of protons. The atoms of an element can, however, have different numbers of neutrons, and they are called isotopes.


In the chemical shorthand 14c the fourteen represents the number of?

The number of protons plus the number of nutrons


Two isotopes of the element rubidium differ in their number of protons?

no isotopes of a particular chemical element all have the same number of protons
