In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is the same as the number of protons. The electronic structure of an atom with five electrons would be 2, 3. The electron configuration would be 1s22s22p1.

What can you conclude about the particle labeled 1 1 P?
It has one nucleon. It has no neutrons. It has one proton.
What is electronic configuaration?
Electronic configuaration is the process in which electrons are placed from the 1st shell, 2nd shell, 3rd shell, 4th shell etc. it is normally 2 in the first shell and so on... e.g(2.8.8) and so on the process carries on according to the proton number since,proton number=number of electrons
Who discovered the nucleon?
The nucleon was not "discovered" per se. That's because the term nucleon, which is a derived word coming from nucleus, can be fairly applied to either of the two particles that make up the nucleus of an atom. You already know these particles are the proton and neutron. We don't call either particle a nucleon when that particle is outside the nucleus, but only when they're inside atomic nuclei. Nucleon is actually an umbrella term that isn't "one specific particle or thing" as we know it.
Isotopes exist because atoms of the same element can have a different numbers of what?
Isotopes are different atoms of the same element with the same number of protons (proton number) but different in number of neutrons. Given that nucleon number is equal to the sum of proton and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom, isotopes have different nucleon number due to difference in number of neutrons.
How do you figure out how many neutrons are in a a atom?
Each nucleon (proton or neutron) contributes about 1 atomic mass unit to the mass of the atom. The mass contribution of the electrons can be ignored, since it takes about 1800 of them to equal the mass of a nucleon and the heaviest elements known have around 1/15th that number of electrons. So if you subtract the atomic number (number of protons) from the atomic mass rounded to the nearest whole number (number of nucleons), what's left is the number of neutrons.
How can you get the nucleon number?
add the number of nucleus and proton number
What do you find when you subtract the proton number from the nucleon number?
In chemistry and physics, a nucleon is one of the two particles that make up the atomic nucleus. Protons are one of the nucleons, Neutrons are the other nucleon.Thus by subtracting the number of Protons in the nucleus (the Proton number) from the total number of nucleons (the nucleon number) you will get the total number of Neutrons (the neutron number) in the atoms nucleus.
What can you conclude about the particle labeled 1 1 P?
It has one nucleon. It has no neutrons. It has one proton.
Is the protron a nucleon?
Yes, the proton is a nucleon. The term nucleon is used to speak of component particles of the nucleus of an atom. That means either a proton or a neutron. The term nucleon can be applied to either the proton or neutron when speaking of these particles as building blocks of atomic nuclei. Use the link to the related question below for more information.
How do you determine the number of neutrons for a sodium atom?
Subtract the proton number or atomic number (11) from the nucleon number or the atomic mass (23) and you get the number of neutrons = '''12'''.
Why is proton number of an atom of an element different from the nucleon number of an atom of an element?
The difference between proton number (which is atomic number) and nucleon number, which is the number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus, is the number of neutrons in the nucleus of a given nuclide. Nucleons are the components of an atomic nucleus. We know that both protons and neutrons make up an atom's nucleus. So the number of nucleons, which is the number of protons and neutrons, minus the number of protons, will equal the number of neutrons in the atomic nucleus.
Can a nucleon be either a neutron or a proton?
A nucleon means either a proton or a neutron, yes. However it is conceivable that the word will be extended to mean anything forming the nucleus of an atom. For example researchers in CERN have managed to produce anti-hydrogen. The nucleus of such an atom would be an anti-proton. It might be reasonable to call that one a nucleon as well.
Does 1 amu equal 1 proton?
1 amu = 1 nucleon
What subatomic particle has a relative mass of 1?
The term nucleon is applied to any particle that makes up an atomic nucleus. That means it can be applied to either a proton or a neutron (but only when we are talking about them as the components of an atomic nucleus). The nucleon with the positive charge is the proton. You'll recall that the neutron is a neutral particle; it has no charge.
What is the number of electrons in the second shell in oxygen?
Oxygen has a proton number of 8, meaning that it has 8 electrons. The electronic structure of oxygen is 2.6 This means that the number of electrons in the second shell is 6.
Can you conclude about a particle labeled 1 1 p?
It has one nucleon it has no neutrons it has one proton
Any subatomic particle found in the atomic nucleus Another name for either proton or neutron?
A nucleon.
