If the number of charged and uncharged particles in the center of an atom are 7 and 8 respectively.What is the mass number of the atom?

The charged particles would be protons (+) and would have a mass of 7 ( which would also tell you its atomic number, making this element Nitrogen). If the uncharged particles are eight in number and like protons have a value of one, 7 + 8 = 15 for atomic mass. Since the actual atomic mass of N is 14.007, the difference in mass tells us that we are talking about an isotope of N.


What color would you use for fluorine atom model for the neutrons and protons?

I would use green for the neutrons and blue for the protons. It doesn't really matter as long as you make them different colors.


How many electrons trifloride?

Neutral fluorine has an atomic number of 9, meaning it has 9 protons and 9 electrons. Trifluorine, were it to actually exist on its own, would be a molecule comprised of three fluorine atoms. Therefore, trifluorine would have 3 X 9 = 27 electrons per molecule.


How would you describe the atomic number?

Atomic number is about protons. It symbolises the protons an atom has.


What element has 12 electrons and 12 protons and 14 neutrons?

This would be magnesium, based on the number of protons. Since the protons is equal to the number of electrons it is a neutral atom. Given the number of protons in the atom, the isotope would be magnesium-26.

What the total number of electrons in a neutral atom of fluorine?

Fluorine has the atomic number of 9. This means it has 9 protons in the nuclei of its atoms. So, a neutral fluorine atom would also have 9 electrons.


How the atomic number related to the core electrons?

For a neutral (uncharged) atom, the total number of electrons is equal to the atomic number (number of protons). This would be the sum of the core electrons plus the valence electrons.

Why oxygen cannot have 9 protons?

Because if it did it would be Fluorine


What element has 8 protons 9 neutrons and 8 electrons?

Giving a specific number of protons and neutrons specifies an isotope of an element. In this case, the isotope is the isotope of fluorine with an atomic mass of 19. Other isotopes of fluorine with different numbers of neutrons also exist, but are not nearly as common.


What is the mass number of a fluorine atom with 8 neutrons?

The atomic number is nine, because there are 9 protons. The mass number is 19, because an element does not have a charge, unless it forms to an ion. Therefore, if protons and neutrons have an amu of 1, the equation is as follows: Mass number (19)- Atomic number (9)= 10. There are 10 Neutrons and 9 protons.


How many electons are there if there is 9 protons and 9 neutrons?

then it would have 9 protons, 9 electrons,


What is the atomic number of an element whose atoms have 9 protons and 10 neutrons?

The atomic number is the number of protons. It is also the number of electrons. The atomic mass equals the protons and neutrons together/weight of the nucleus. So, the atomic number would be nine, because there are 9 protons. The atomic mass would be around 19, because there would be 9 protons and 10 neutrons in the nucleus. The element you are talking about is actually Fluorine, and on the periodic table it says that the atomic mass is 18.9984032. This is because the atomic mass is usually never an exact amount. You can round this decimal place to 19, anyway.


If an atom has 16 electrons how many are in the third level?

16 ... if it's not ionized. A neutral atom would have 16 electrons, one negative charged electron for each positive charged proton. Now an atom does not have to be neutral, it can have more or less electrons, which is called an ion. 16 Protons would make this a Sulfur atom, which is going to try to aquire 2 more electrons to have a complete orbital shell.

What is the atomic number of an atom with 9 protons 10 neutrons and 9 electrons?

Only protons and neutrons have 1 unit mass each, which form the nucleus. The Electrons that orbit the nucleus are of negligable mass. Therefore; total mass = 9 protons + 10 neutrons = 19 unit mass.
