Molybdenum-96 (not Mo-96) or Mo 96 42 has 42 protons and 54 neutrons. The atomic number is number of protons The mass number minus the atomic number is number of neutrons
The molybdenum chemical symbol is Mo.
Molybdenum's atomic number is 42 and its atomic weight is 95.94
95.94 according to my chemistry textbook...
95.94
Molybdenum
Molybdenum 98, a stable isotope, has 56 neutrons.
Most molybdenum atoms have 54 neutrons. The atomic number (number of protons) of molybdenum is 42, and its weight (number of protons and neutrons) is around 96. 96 - 42 = 54.
An element's atomic number gives its number of protons. Checking the periodic table, we see that molybdenum is the element with the atomic number of 42. Thus molybdenum has 42 protons in its nucleus.

The count of quarks in an atom of molybdenum would depend on the nuclide's mass number (A), or in other words, on which isotope. 3 * A = (quark count) since both neutrons and protons have 3 quarks each. The lowest we know about (Mo-83) would have 249 quarks, the highest (Mo-115) would have 345. Molybdenum-98 is the commonest isotope with (3 * 98) quarks.
