What element is the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus?
All elements have neutrons and protons within the nucleus.
The mass number is used to calculate the number of what?
The number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus
Mass number - atomic number?
The mass number represents the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. The atomic number specifies the number of protons in the nucleus. The difference between the mass number and atomic number gives the number of neutrons in the nucleus.
Does a nucleus have the same number of protons and electrons?
The nucleus of an atom contains only protons and neutrons; there are never any electrons in the nucleus. The number of neutrons is generally equal to or greater than the number of protons.
The mass number is used to calculate the number of?
protons and neutrons in an atom. It is the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.
Is this statement correct atoms are made up of nucleus and electrons composed of protons whose number is called the atomic number and neutrons whose numbers added together make the mass number?
It's close, but an atom is made of a nucleus and electrons. The nucleus is made of protons and neutrons. The number of protons equals the atomic number of the element, and the atomic mass is the number of protons plus neutrons.
How many protons are in a lithium nucleus?
The atomic number of lithium is 3. Therefor there are 3 protons and neutron in the nucleus of lithium. Lithium also has 4 neutrons. atomic # = protons and neutrons neutrons = rounded atomic mass - atomic number Sources- 7th grade Acc. Science
How is the nucleus related to the periodic table?
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.
A common isotope of carbon has a mass number of 13 The total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus is?
13. The mass number is always the total number of protons and neutrons.
Total number of particles in the nucleus is called what?
There are two types of particles in the nucleus of an atom, which are the Protons and the Neutrons. The number of particles in the nucleus depends what is the element. For example, Oxygen has 8 protons and 8 neutrons in the nucleus and Phosphorus has 15 protons and 16 neutrons in the nucleus.
Define the term mass number?
Mass number is a value approximate to the number of protons (Atomic Number) plus the number of neutrons within an atom of the element considered. I say approximate as mass number takes into account the mass of the nucleus and not the actual number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
Is the atomic number of an atom is equal to the number of protons or neutrons in the nucleus?
Protons
