Plutonium a very explosive element.
An atom with 94 protons is plutonium (element 94). Adding 150 neutrons gives us the isotope plutonium-244, which has a total of 94 protons and 150 neutrons.
The atom that contains 94 protons and 150 neutrons is plutonium-244 (Pu-244).

Plutonium (Pu) typically has 94 protons and around 145 neutrons in its most common isotope, Pu-239.
For Md-258 isotope, there are 157 neutrons (258 - 101 = 157; atomic number = 101)
Pu-246 is Plutonium with an atomic weight of 246. The atomic weight is the sum of the protons and neutrons (the weight of electrons is negligible). The atomic number(number of protons) for plutonium is 94. Therefore, the number of neutrons is: atomic weight - atomic number or 246 - 94 = 152 neutrons.
In plutonium-240, there are 94 protons, since plutonium has an atomic number of 94. Since atoms are electrically neutral, there are also 94 electrons. The number of neutrons can be calculated by subtracting the number of protons from the atomic mass, which is typically close to 240 for plutonium-240.
Since each molecule of sodium chloride contains one sodium atom, the mass of the sodium in a 150 gram sample of sodium chloride would be the same as the mass of the sample itself, which is 150 grams.
Plutonium (Pu) typically has 94 protons and around 145 neutrons in its most common isotope, Pu-239.
Since a nucleus contains from 1 (heavy hydrogen) to 150 neutrons, as well as up to 110 protons, the neutron is smaller.
92 protons 92 electrons, 125 to 150 neutrons depending on the isotope (natural or artificial). For the natural isotopes of uranium: Uranium 238 has: 92 protons, 92 electrons and 146 neutrons. Uranium 235 has: 92 protons, 92 electrons and 143 neutrons. Uranium 234 has: 92 protons, 92 electrons and 142 neutrons.
There are 88 neutrons in Samarium (Sm). This can be calculated quite easily: Neutrons=1amu Protons=1amu Since the atomic mass is equal to the sum of protons and neutrons, and the atomic number is the number or protons, you can simply subtract the mass from the atomic number to see how many neutrons are present. (Atomic Mas - Atomic Number = Number of neutrons) 150 - 62 = 88 (Note: The mass of Sm is slightly larger than 150 but for the purpose of time, mass is almost always rounded in calculations)
Protons = 92 Electrons = 92 Neutrons = 146 The number of electrons and protons in a neutral atom are each equal to the atomic number of the element (92). The number of neutrons equals the atomic weight minus the number of protons (238 - 92 = 146).Uranium has 92 protons, 92 electrons, and usually 147 neutrons, though another isotope has 143 neutrons.
Because the atomic number is 62, the element Samarium has 62 electrons and 62 protons. Since the number of neutrons is calculated by subtracting the atomic number from the atomic mass, and Samarium's atomic mass is 150, it has 88 neutrons.
In plutonium-240, there are 94 protons, since plutonium has an atomic number of 94. Since atoms are electrically neutral, there are also 94 electrons. The number of neutrons can be calculated by subtracting the number of protons from the atomic mass, which is typically close to 240 for plutonium-240.
There are from 134 neutrons to 153 neutrons in a plutonium atom, depending on which isotope of the element we are investigating. The isotopes 238Pu to 244Pu are arguably the most commonly considered. Use the link below for more information on isotopes of plutonium. There are quite a few, and Wikipedia has a good list.
After taking out my periodic table of elements, the closest i could find would be Californium, with 153 neutrons, Berkelium, with 152 neutrons, and finally Curium with 151 neutrons. This can be found by taking the atomic number of an element (which is the number of protons it has) and subtracting it from the elements atomic mass (which is the number of protons and neutrons added together). No element has a perfect 150 neutron number, but in its most stable isotope form Curium appears to be the closest.
Differences in IsotopesThey have different numbers of neutrons and therefore different mass numbers.
Uranium has many isotopes and each isotope has a different number of neutrons (N). N = atomic weight of the isotope - atomic number of uranium (A=92) The number of neutrons of the isotope 92U238 is 238-92=146 and the number of neutrons of the isotope 92U235 is 235-92=143.
The atomic number represents the number of protons in the nucleus. It determines what element you're talking about. Numbered from 1 to over 100. The mass number represents the total of protons AND neutrons in the nucleus. It is close to (not the same as) the atomic mass. Isotopes can have different mass numbers but belong to the same element (same atomic number). The number of neutrons (not having a special 'name') varies from 0 to over 150.
