Does 12C have fewer neutron than 13C?
Yes. Both carbon atoms have 6 protons. However, the 12C atom has 6 neutrons while the 13C atom has 7 neutrons :)
Does thyroxine have fewer iodine atoms than triiodothyronine?
No. Thyroxine is also called as tetraiodothyronine. So thyroxine has four iodine atoms and triiodothyronine has three iodine atoms.
The total number of protons amd neutrons in the nucleus determines the atoms?
This is the "mass number" of the atom, indicating relative mass of an isotope.For example uranium-235 (235U) is a lighter atom than uranium-238 (238U) because while both isotopes have 92 protons (the atomic number), the first has 3 fewer neutrons.
Does polyunsaturated fats has fewer hydrogen atoms than saturated fats?
Yes.
Which has the greatest number of atoms- 3.5 grams of helium or 3.5 grams of lithium?
Helium because it has fewer atoms, so there are more atoms needed to have 3.5 grams of it.
Will an atom with more neutrons react identically to an atom of the same element with fewer neutrons?
Not always. Some atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons are radioactive, whereas the other atoms are not.
Does 12C have fewer neutron than 13C?
Yes. Both carbon atoms have 6 protons. However, the 12C atom has 6 neutrons while the 13C atom has 7 neutrons :)
Some atoms may have more or fewer what than will other atoms of the same element?
Neutrons in the nucleus, so you have isotopes of the same element, For example hydrogen, deuterium and tritium.
What is an atom with more or fewer neutrons than atoms of the same element?
An atom of a certain element with a different number of neutrons compared with the common form of the element is called an isotope. Isotopes have the same number of protons and electrons in an atom, but a different number of neutrons (which means that they have a different atomic mass number).
Do all atoms contain proton neutron and electron?
yes, all normal atoms do, but there are things called ions and isotopes that have fewer or more electrons and neutrons
Does thyroxine have fewer iodine atoms than triiodothyronine?
No. Thyroxine is also called as tetraiodothyronine. So thyroxine has four iodine atoms and triiodothyronine has three iodine atoms.
12C has one fewer proton than 13C?
Carbon 12 and carbon 14 are atoms of carbon, different isotopes of the element. Carbon owes its chemical identity, indeed, its elemental identity, to the number of protons in its nucleus. There are 6 of them. No more, no less. Carbon 12 has 6 protons and 6 neutrons. Carbon 14 has 6 protons and 8 neutrons. Carbon 14 has fewer protons than neutrons.
Does U-235 have fewer neutrons than common uranium?
Uranium-235 has 143 neutrons; uranium-238 has 146 neutrons. Each isotope has a different number of neutrons.
The total number of protons amd neutrons in the nucleus determines the atoms?
This is the "mass number" of the atom, indicating relative mass of an isotope.For example uranium-235 (235U) is a lighter atom than uranium-238 (238U) because while both isotopes have 92 protons (the atomic number), the first has 3 fewer neutrons.
Why do the masses of atoms of the same element may differ?
some atoms may have more or fewer universes! Remember on jonny test, he went in his own atoms and boom! He had his very OWN UNIVERSE lets hope you have more universes than Jonny Test!
What element has fewer or more neutrons than protons?
The vast majority
If the isotope is given for calcium what is the formula?
An isotope has extra/fewer neutrons than the original atom. So if you know the isotope you can deduce the original atoms' formula.For Ca that would be:20 protons40 mass number
