Nuclide
No. For an isotope of an element, the number of neutrons, not protons, in the nucleus of an atom of the isotope is equal to the isotopic mass number minus the atomic number. The atomic number itself is the number of protons in the nucleus.
The number of neutrons minus the number of protons in an atomic nucleus.
Curium is an artificial chemical element. Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - atomic number of the isotope The atomic number of curium is 96; and atomic mass is 247 so no of neutrons is 151.
The atomic nucleus of technetium contain 43 protons and electrons.For each isotope the number of neutrons is different. Number of neutrons = Mass number of an Tc isotope - 43
Atomic Mass
Number of neutrons in an atomic nucleus = Atomic mass of an isotope - Number of protons in the nucleus For uranium the number of protons is 92; each isotope has of course a different mass.
An isotope's mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in each atomic nucleus of the isotope.
The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom's nucleus.
Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - Number of protons (Atomic number)
No. For an isotope of an element, the number of neutrons, not protons, in the nucleus of an atom of the isotope is equal to the isotopic mass number minus the atomic number. The atomic number itself is the number of protons in the nucleus.
The number of neutrons minus the number of protons in an atomic nucleus.
The mass number of an isotope of an element is defined as the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of each atom of the isotope. The atomic number is defined as the number of protons only in the nucleus. Therefore, an atom with an atomic number of 6 has 6 protons in its nucleus.
The sum of protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus is called "mass number"; this value is different for each isotope.
Curium is an artificial chemical element. Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - atomic number of the isotope The atomic number of curium is 96; and atomic mass is 247 so no of neutrons is 151.
The atomic nucleus of technetium contain 43 protons and electrons.For each isotope the number of neutrons is different. Number of neutrons = Mass number of an Tc isotope - 43
The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of any given element. The mass number is the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom of an isotope of an element.
The mass number is the sum of neutrons and protons in the atomic nucleus and is different for each isotope of any element. For example the isotope oxygen-16 has the mass number 16.
