Mass number = 5 + 6 = 11
The Atomic Mass is, basically, the sum of the protons (the "atomic number"), and the number of neutrons.
Subtract the atomic number of the isotope from its atomic mass number to obtain the number of neutrons in an isotope.
The Atomic Mass is, basically, the sum of the protons (the "atomic number"), and the number of neutrons.
The Atomic Mass is, basically, the sum of the protons (the "atomic number"), and the number of neutrons.
The Atomic Mass is, basically, the sum of the protons (the "atomic number"), and the number of neutrons.
The atomic mass number of an isotope is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. In this case, atomic number 5 represents the number of protons, and adding the 6 neutrons gives an atomic mass number of 11 for this particular isotope.
The atomic mass number is calculated by adding the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. In this case, the isotope with atomic number 5 and 6 neutrons would have an atomic mass number of 11 (5 protons + 6 neutrons = 11 atomic mass number).
Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - atomic number Atomic number of Cf is 98.
Each isotope of an element has a different number of neutrons: Atomic mass of the isotope - Atomic number = Number of neutrons
153 neutrons in the most stable isotope Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - atomic number. Atomic mass of the most stable isotope of Cf is 251. Atomic number of Cf is 98.
The Atomic Mass is, basically, the sum of the protons (the "atomic number"), and the number of neutrons.
The number of neutrons is different for each isotope. Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - 104
