The atomic number of yttrium (Y) is 39.
The atomic weight of Y is 88.906 grams per mole.
See the Web Links to the left of this answer for a periodic table with more information about this element!
Yttrium (Symbol Y)
50 neutrons
Look at the atomic number. That will be the number of protons and electrons; subtract that number from the atomic mass (rounding down) and you'll have the number of neutrons.
50 because 89(the atomic number, which is the amount of protons+the amount of neutrons)-39(the amount of protons) is 50
The element that has the closest mass to 89 is Yttrium(88.91).
Yttrium's atomic number is 39, meaning that it always has 39 protons in its nucleus. This is, in fact, all that we know for sure about yttrium unless we are given the mass number, which is the total number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus, of a specific yttrium isotope. Thirty-two different yttrium isotopes, ranging in mass number from 77 to 108, have either been found or synthetically produced. Therefore, the number of neutrons in an yttrium atom could be anywhere from 38 to 69. Yttrium's only stable isotope, 89Y, has 50 neutrons.
The atomic number is the count of how many protons an atom has in its nucleus (and therefor also the count of how many electrons the neutral atom possesses). The atomic number us unique for each element and positions the element in the periodic table. The element with atomic number 39 is Yttrium (Y).

Yttrium's atomic number is 39, therefore there are 39 electrons in it.
Look at the atomic number. That will be the number of protons and electrons; subtract that number from the atomic mass (rounding down) and you'll have the number of neutrons.
Yttrium is the largest metal in group three. It is atomic number 39 and has an atomic mass of about 88.9.
88.90585
By 'y' I hope your talking about Yttrium and not a variable. The atomic number is 39, so the number of protons is 39. Always remember that the atomic number is the same as the number of protons.
The electron configuration of the element with the atomic number 39 (yttrium) is: [Kr]4d15s2.
50 because 89(the atomic number, which is the amount of protons+the amount of neutrons)-39(the amount of protons) is 50
