What is the number of neutrons in argon?
Argon has 22 neutrons.
What is the mass number of an atom with 18 protons 22 neutrons and 18 electrons?
if you were to count the individual weight of all the protons neutrons and electrons you will get 40. however this is not the case when they are joined together due to something call the strong neuclear force which causes the atom to weigh 39.9
How many neutrons are in the nucleus of an atom of argon-42?
Neutrons = 24 Protons = 18 Electrons = 18
How many nutrons does argon have?
There are 3 Isotopes with the following mass numbers: Argon 36 Argon 38 Argon 40 Argon has an atomic number of 18 (it therefore has 18 protons in its nucleus and 18 electrons flying round it). To get the number of neutrons one subtracts the atomic number from the mass number. This means that some Argon atoms have 18 neutrons, some 20 neutrons and some 22 neutrons the isotope with 22 neutrons is the most common and forms 99.6% of all Argon.
How many protons nuetrons and electrons does argon have?
In order to answer this question, the specific isotope of argon must be known. However, I will answer it using argon-40 because it makes up over 99% of the atoms of argon. Argon-40 has a mass number of 40, meaning that the sum of protons and neutrons in the nuclei of its atoms is 40. In order to use this information to determine the numbers of protons and neutrons, you also need to know the atomic number, which is the number of protons in the nucleus of its atoms. Argon's atomic number is 18, so we know that all argon atoms have 18 protons. To calculate the number of neutrons, we subtract the atomic number from the mass number, which is (40-18)=22 neutrons. The number of electrons equals the number of protons in a neutral atom, so argon atoms have 18 electrons. So, to sum things up, neutral atoms of argon-40 contain 18 protons, 22 neutrons, and 18 electrons.
What element has 18 neutrons in its atom?
There are several. However, Chlorine is one. Chlorine-35 has 17 protons, 18 neutrons and 17 electrons in its isotopic atom. However, Chlorine-37 has 17 protons, 20 neutrons and 17 electrons in its isotopic atom.
An atom has an atomic number of 18 and 20 neutrons. what is the element?
Argon-20
How does an atom Argon-38 compare to an ordinary Argon-36 atom?
Argon 38 has eighteen protons and twenty neutrons. Argon 36 has eighteen protons and eighteen neutrons.
What is the number of neutrons in argon?
Argon has 22 neutrons.
An atom has what number of protons and electrons?
9 protons and 10 neutrons in F-19 isotope.

An atom has 18 protons 18 electrons and 20 neutrons. This atom has?
This atoms has an atomic number of 18 and an atomic mass of 38.
What does the number 40 in argon-40 represent?
It is the mass number, i.e., the total number of protons and neutrons in argon and is ofter used to calculate the number of neutrons present. As the atomic number (or the number of protons) for argon is 18, there will be 22 neutrons in Argon-40 isotope.
How many neutrons are in the nucleus of an atom of argon-42?
