the mass of protons + the mass of neutrons = mass of the element
It is about neutrons and protons. The total of neutrons and protons.
Sodium is a metal element. Mass number of it is 23.
The mass number is the sum of protons + neutrons.
A mass number is the sum of numbers of protons and neutrons in an atom. Therefore, an element with a mass number of 65 and 36 neutrons contains (65 - 36) or 29 protons and is therefore an atom of copper.
The mass number is the average atomic mass of all the isotopes that are found in nature.
The nucleus contains the protons and neutrons. The number of protons determines the atomic number of the element and the number of protons and the number of neutrons together determine the atomic mass.
protons + neutrons
It is the boron element. It contains similar numbers of electrons and protons.
It contains 10 protons and 10 electrons (no. of protons =no. of electrons in ground state) Number of neutrons=Mass number of element- number of protons =19-10 =9
The approximate mass of an atom that contains 10 protons and 11 neutrons is 21.
Sum of protons and neutrons is the Mass number of the element. The number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. Neutrons and protons are sub atomic particles.
