it depends because isotopes have different nucleon numbers but their atomic number stays the same.

How can you dertermine the number of neutrons in a isotope?

Subtract the atomic number of the isotope from its atomic mass number to obtain the number of neutrons in an isotope.


How does the atomic number relate to the number of protons in an atom?

Atomic Mass (of an isotope) - number of protons (of an isotope) = number of neutrons (of an isotope)


How may neutrons does neon have?

Number of neutrons = Atomic mass - Atomic number Atomic number of neon: 10 Atomic mass: depending on the neon isotope, each isotope has a different mass


What does the atomic mass equals the number of?

An isotope's mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in each atomic nucleus of the isotope.


How many neutrons is in californium?

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.


What is the atomic mass number of an isotope that has an atomic number 5 and includes 6 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.


How do you find atomic mass and mass number of isotope?

The atomic mass of an isotope is the weighted average of the masses of the naturally occurring isotopes of an element. It is found by multiplying the mass of each isotope by its natural abundance and summing these values. The mass number of an isotope is the total number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus and can be found by rounding the atomic mass to the nearest whole number.


Was is the atomic mass number for oxygen?

The mass number is the sum of neutrons and protons in the atomic nucleus and is different for each isotope of any element.For example the isotope oxygen-16 has the mass number 16.The mass number is not the atomic mass !!


How many protons and neutron and electron and nucleus electron cloud are the in curium?

Curium has 96 protons. Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - atomic number of the isotope The atomic number of curium is 96; for the isotopic masses of curium read at the link below.


What is the atomic notation for an isotope that has an atomic number of 35 and a mass of 81?

The atomic number 35 corresponds to bromine, and the symbol would be 81Br.


Is 18 O an isotope?

Yes, 18O is an isotope of oxygen. It has a different number of neutrons compared to the more common isotope of oxygen (16O), which affects its atomic mass.


How is an isotope and mass number related?

It isn't, as such. Isotopes of the same element have different numbers of neutrons, and neutrons have a mas of one atomic mass unit (amu). So isotopes have different atomic masses, but being told the number of neutrons any isotope has, will not enable you to say what element or atomic mass it had, unless you remembered the details for every single isotope. Even then different elements can have the same number of neutrons. Isotopes do get named after their atomic mass however - uranaium 235 has an atomic mass of 235, for instance.
