Need the atomic number - that would tell us the number of protons and from there the number of neutrons can be calculated. The question as posed does not have enough information to answer.
20. the mass of an atom is determined by the sum of the number of neutrons and protons the atom has.
Boron typically has 5 neutrons, as the mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus. In this case, with a mass number of 10, and Boron having 5 protons (atomic number 5), the number of neutrons is 5 (10 - 5 = 5).
The symbol for the isotope would be B and the atomic number would be 5, as the mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus, so in this case: 5 protons + 10 neutrons = mass number 15.
The mass number of this atom is 23, the sum of the number of protons and neutrons.
To find the number of protons, you need to subtract the number of neutrons from the mass number. In this case, the atom has a mass number of 19 and 10 neutrons, which means the number of protons is 19 - 10 = 9 protons.
To find the number of neutrons in an atom, subtract the atomic number from the mass number. Therefore, for an atom with a mass number of 10 and an atomic number of 4, there would be 6 neutrons (10 - 4 = 6).
Number of neutrons = Mass number - Atomic number = 22 - 12 = 10
The mass number of this atom is (10 + 11 =) 21.Remember:Mass number is the sum of (the number of) neutrons (= 11) and protons.Atomic number is equal to the number of protons (= 10)This atom is the least abundant isotope of neon, 2110Ne (< 0.3%)
A neutral atom of neon with atomic number 10 has 10 protons and 10 electrons. The mass number of 22 indicates the total number of protons and neutrons combined. Since the atomic number is 10, the number of neutrons is 22 - 10 = 12.
Boron-10 isotope has 5 neutrons out of a total of 10 particles, so the percentage of neutrons in boron-10 is 50%.
The mass number of an atom is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons in its nucleus. So an atom with 15 protons and 10 neutrons would have a mass number of 15 + 10 = 25.
sodium has more protons and neutrons. electrons have practically no mass, valence electrons are just outer orbital electrons. sodium has 11 protons, 11 electrons, and 12 neutrons. Mass is 23. neon has 10 protons, 10 electrons, and 10 neutrons. Mass is just 20. The neon atom has 10 protons and 10 neutrons for a mass number of 20. The sodium atom has 11 protons and 12 neutrons for a mass number of 23. The number of valence electrons has no bearing on mass number or atomic weight.
