The number of protons in an atom of an element?
It is equal to the no. of electrons in the atom. It is called the atomic number.
What are the number of protons and electrons found in an element called?
the number of protons in an element is called the atomic number and there is no way to see how many electrons an element has.
An elements number of protons is called its?
The number of protons of a chemical element is equal with atomic number.
The number of protons in the nucleus of an element is called?
the answer is that it is called a atomic number.
What is the name for a number of protons in the nucleus of each atom of an element?
The number of protons in an element is called the atomic number.
The number of protons is called the atomic what?
The atomic number, or Z, is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of an element. This is what determines what element an atom is. A link can be found below.
The number of protons in an atom is called the atomic mass of the element?
The mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus. The number of protons is equal to the atomic number.
What is the atomic mass of an element with 4 protons 5 neutrons and 4 electrons?
4 protons 4 electrons 5 neutrons subtract the number of of protons from the atomic weight
What is the number of protons in an element called on the periodic table?
It is called the atomic number.
What are the number of protons and electrons found in an element?
the number of protons in an element is called the atomic number and there is no way to see how many electrons an element has.
How is the atomic mass of an element used to determine the number of nuetrons in its atom?
Different isotopes of the same element have different numbers of neutrons but the same number of protons. The sum of the protons and neutrons is called the mass number. If you know the mass number and the number of protons (which is the atomic number), then you simply subtract the protons (or atomic number) from the mass number and the result is the number of neutrons. Example: Carbon-14 has a mass number of 14. Carbon's atomic number (and number of protons) is 6. So, 14 - 6 = 8 neutrons.
What does the number of elements tell you?
The number is called the element's atomic number. The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom of that element.
