The mass number of an atom is determined by the number of neutrons and protons. Since you already know the number of neutrons, you just need the number of protons, then you can add them together. I happen to know that iodine has 53 protons, so that means that the mass number is 127.It is the protons and neutrons added together so when you add 53 and 74 you get 127!
Hope that helped a lot!! :):):):):):):)
The mass of 1 iodine atom is approximately 126.9 atomic mass units (u).
There are five neutrons in one atom of boron with a mass number of 10. Boron has an atomic number of 5, so 10 (mass number) - 5 (atomic number) = 5 neutrons.
A phosphorus atom typically contains 16 neutrons. This can be determined by subtracting the atomic number, which is 15 for phosphorus, from its atomic mass, which is usually around 31 for the most commonly occurring isotope.
Its the mass number of an atom.The mass of an atom is concentrated in the nucleus. Both protons and neutrons which are collectively known as nucleons are found within the nucleus.Mass of electrons are not considered to be contributing towards the mass no. of an atom as their size is small and thus their mass is negligible.
there are 11.99 neutrons in an atom of sodium
mass number = protons + nuetrons
mass number
The Mass Number.
Number of Neutrons = Mass number - Atomic Number
mass number = protons + nuetrons
add the number of protons and nuetrons together
The mass number = the number of protons + the number of nuetrons. Each of these particles is considered to have a mass of 1 amu. (atomic mass unit) For example, Aluminum has 13 protons and 14 nuetrons, so it's mass number = 27.
no. of protons+no. of nuetrons in an atom is known as mass no. of that atom.while no . of protons present in an atom is called its atomic no.thus, in 1st condition we consider both, no. of protons as well as no. of nuetrons and in the 2nd condition we just consider no. of protons.
The sum of the number of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is called as atomic mass.
protons and nuetrons
it tells us that the number is equal to the number of protons plus the number of nuetrons in the nucleus of an atom
The number of neutrons and protons together constitutes the mass number of a single isotope of an element.
