What is the number of protons and neutrons called?

The number protons in an atom is called the atomic number (it is this number that tells us which element the atom is). The number of neutrons in an atom can change, but the term for the amount of neutrons is called an isotope. The number of protons and neutrons added together is called the atomic mass.


If there was an atom of this element that has 18 neutrons would it still be the same element?

Yes. Atoms with a different number of neutrons are called isotopes of that atom, but a variation in the number of neutrons does not change what the atom is.


An atoms what number is the sum of protons and neutrons?

The sum of protons and neutrons in an atom is called mass number.

How many neutrons are in one atom?

The number of neutrons depends on the atom. In general, mass number = atomic number + number of neutrons.

Isotopes.


What is the total number protons and neutrons in an atom called?

Does an atom with more neutrons have a positive charge?

No. Neutrons have no charge. They are neutral ... the main reason they're called NEUtrons.The total charge on an atom is not affected by the number of neutrons in its nucleus.
