The atomic number is equal to the number of protons in an atomic nucleus; the atomic number is the order number of a chemical element in the Periodic Table of Mendeleev.
What else can I help you with?
What is an atomic number and how is the atomic number used to distinguish one element from another?
The atomic number is equal to the number of protons in the atomic nucleus. It is an individual characteristic.
What is the atomic number used for?
The atomic number of an element is the number of protons found in the nucleus of an atom. The atomic number is identical to the charge number of the nucleus. For example, the atomic number of Oxygen is 8.
What characteristic of an atom is NOT used to determine the number of neutrons in an atom?
The characteristic of an atom that is not used to determine the number of neutrons is its atomic number. The atomic number indicates the number of protons in an atom, while the number of neutrons is derived from the difference between the atomic mass (which is the total number of protons and neutrons) and the atomic number. Therefore, only the atomic mass and the atomic number are needed to calculate the number of neutrons.
How did later chemists change Mendeleevs periodic table?
They used atomic number instead of Atomic Mass to organize the elements
What element has an atomic number of forty-seven and is used photograph film?
Silver (Ag) has an atomic number of 47 and is used in photography.
What equation is used to calculate neutrons for an element?
Number of neutrons = Atomic mass - Atomic number
What is the atomic number and is 47and is used for photography film?
Silver (Ag) - atomic number 47.
Why is the number of neutrons the atomic number?
the number of neutrons is not the atomic number. The atomic number of an atom is the atoms number of protons. The number of protons is same as the number of electrons. The number of protons is used as the atomic number so that the elements can be easily organized in polarity size and bonding probability.
How is atomic number used to distinguish one element from another?
The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom, and each element has a unique atomic number. This means that the atomic number is used to identify and distinguish one element from another. The number of protons in an atom determines its chemical properties and its placement on the periodic table.
What is the set of numbers that is used to identify the element?
The atomic number generally. the atomic number is the number of protons(or electrons) an atom has.
What is atomic number same as?
The atomic number is the same as the number of protons.
Why do not use the atomic number often when you write the atomic symbol?
The atomic number is typically not used together with the atomic symbol because the atomic symbol already implies the atomic number. The atomic symbol consists of one or two letters, with the first letter capitalized, and the second letter, if present, in lowercase. The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom and is unique to each element.
