Hydrogen is a non metal element. Mass number of it is 1.
Deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen with 1 proton and 2 neutrons for a combined mass number of 3.
by the number of atomic numbers in the element and the amount of mass numbers in the element. these are the numbers on the top and bottom of each element.eg. Helium (Symbol He) has a mass number of : 4 and an atomic number of:2
Oxygen is heavier as it has a mass number of 16 whereas hydrogen has a mass number of 1. Both form diatomic molecules (molecules of two atoms) making the formula masses 32 for oxygen and 2 for hydrogen.
Having only one proton deuterium has the atomic number 1, as hydrogen; but because deuterium has also and a neutron, the atom is different compared to the atom of hydrogen. Consequently deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen with the Atomic Mass 2.
The atomic symbol for an isotope of calcium will be the regular symbol for calcium, Ca. The number of protons will differ from standard calcium. This is written below the mass number Ca.
"D" [note capitalization!] is sometimes used as an alternative symbol for the hydrogen-2 isotope. Its mass number is therefore 2.
As Deuterium and Tritium are both merely isotopes of Hydrogen and not elements in their own right, they both have an atomic number of 1, just like Hydrogen (Hydrogen-1). Deuterium (Hydrogen-2) has an atomic mass of 2, and Tritium (Hydrogen-3) has an atomic mass of 3.
Hydrogen is a gas. Mass number of it is 2.
Hydrogen is a non metal element. Atomic mass of it is 1.
Hydrogen is a non meta element. Atomic mass of it is 2.
Each isotope of each element has an atomic mass number. The atomic mass numbers for hydrogen are 1, 2 and 3. That's because hydrogen has three isotopes. "Regular" hydrogen has a single proton in its nucleus. It's atomic mass is 1. There is also heavy hydrogen, which has a neutron bound to the proton in its nucleus. It's atomic mass is 2. Heavy heavy hydrogen has two neutrons bound together with the proton. It's atomic mass is 3. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on hydrogen.
Because the number of protons defines the element, not the mass (you can have Hydrogen with 1 or 2 neutrons and it is still Hydrogen)
The molar mass of hydrogen is 2.
Deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen with 1 proton and 2 neutrons for a combined mass number of 3.
This case is impossible. Hydrogen will always have an atomic number of 1.
If you think to tritium (hydrogen-3) the mass number is 3.If you think to helium-4 the mass number is 4.
The letter H is the chemical symbol for the element hydrogen.
