How many neutrons are in the nucleus of lithium?

Lithium Atomic number = number of proton = 3 Mass number = number of proton + neutrons = 7 Therefore number of neutrons = 7 - 3 = 4

Lithium as number of protons is equal to the atomic number..


Determine the number of electrons in a neutral atom of lithium?

By consulting a periodic table, you can find the atomic number of lithium (which equals its proton number), as well as its average number of neutrons (represented by the mass number - simply take the proton number away from the mass number).


What particle determines what element the atom is?

The number of protons. One proton and you have Hydrogen, two - Helium, three - Lithium, and so on. The atomic number is defined by how many protons are in an atom.


How many proton are there in the lithium ion?

All lithium atoms (ions or neutral) have 3 protons.


Which metal has the lowest number of proton in its atom?

Lithium has the lowest number of protons of any metal: 3. Hydrogen an helium have fewer protons bu they are not metals.

If the atomic mass for lithium is 64.777 and helium id 25.999 how do you tell which one is heavier?

There are rules and consideration to be taken into account to tell which element is heavier. The mass of an element is considered by its number of proton and neutrons. The mass of an electron is equivalent to about 0.00005 of the proton which has a mass of 1. So yeah! more proton and neutron, the mass of the element will be heavier.In this case, the mass of lithium is heavier than the mass of helium because lithium has more protons and neutrons. If You look into the period table, Helium is 2nd and lithium is 3rd which is heavier.


Is lithium-8 radioactive?

Yes, it is. It has a high neutron-to-proton ratio.

3 protons and 2 electrons.


What is the atomic number and the atomic mass of lithium?

Hydrogen has 1 as its atomic number. That's because it has one proton in its nucleus. Hydrogen has three isotopes. Each isotope has one proton in its nucleus (naturally, because that's what makes it hydrogen). Atomic mass is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons in an atom's nucleus. Let's look at each isotope of hydrogen. "Simple" hydrogen has only the 1 proton in its nucleus. It's atomic number is 1 and its mass number is 1 (the 1 proton plus zero neutrons). Heavy hydrogen has 1 proton and 1 neutron in its nucleus. It's atomic number is 1 and its mass number is 2 (the 1 proton plus 1 neutron). Heavy, heavy hydrogen has 1 proton and 2 neutrons in its nucleus. It's atomic number is 1 and its mass number is 3 (the 1 proton plus 2 neutrons).
