Which has greatest number of neutrons carbon13 and carbon14 or nitrogen14?
Gp39718761037146
C-13 has an atomic number of 6 and an Atomic Mass of 13, therefore it has 13-6 neutrons = 7. C-14 therefore has 8 neutrons. N-14 has an atomic mass of 14 and an atomic number of 7, so its number of neutrons is 7. 8>7, so Carbon 14 has the largest number of neutrons.

How many protons electrons and valence electrons are in each nitrogen atom?
Nitrogen14, has 7 protons, 7 electrons and 7 neutrons.
What atom has 5 protons and 6 neutrons and 5 electrons?
I'm almost positive the protons always tell you the identification of an element on the periodic chart... the atom with 6 protons is Carbon a non metal but if electrons are 5 then it must be carbon cation C+.
Isotopes of an element have a different number of?
neutrons
Carbon has the atomic number 6. There is a carbon isotope with a mass number of 14. How many protons and neutrons does this atom have?
This is not an atom, but a non-existing Carbon anion (-1, negatively charged)
Which best describes the nucleus of an atom?
The nucleus of an atom is the densest part of an atom. It contains the protons and neutrons of an atom.
What is the number of neutrons electrons and protons in nitrogen14?
there are 7 neutrons, 7 protons, and....----electrons
How many protons neutrons and electrons are in carbon14?
7 protons, 7 neutrons and 7 electrons
Does the carbon14 have more protons neutrons or electrons than carbon12?
It has the same number of protons and electrons, but two more neutrons.
How many protons electrons and valence electrons are in each nitrogen atom?
Nitrogen14, has 7 protons, 7 electrons and 7 neutrons.
What is nuclear isotopes?
A radioactive isotope is a form of an element that is unstable and eventually decays into a different element. For example, most Carbon has 6 protons and 6 neutrons, and is stable. This is called Carbon12.Carbon14 with 6 protons and 8 neutrons, is unstable and decays by releasing a beta particle from its nucleus to become a stable isotope, Nitrogen14. which has 7 protons and 7 neutrons.That refers to an isotope that is unstable - the atoms will decay after a while.
How does carbon14 enter the atmosphere?
Cosmic rays bombard the upper atmosphere (see Carbon 14 wiki): "Carbon-14 is produced in the upper layers of the troposphere and the stratosphere by thermal neutrons absorbed by nitrogen atoms. When cosmic rays enter the atmosphere, they undergo various transformations, including the production of neutrons. The resulting neutrons (1n) participate in the following reaction: : 1n + 14N → 14C + 1H"
How are neutrons in an atom calculated?
As an example, take Americium 241 - 241 is the atomic weight. It is Atomic number 95 in the periodic table and so there are 95 protons. There are thus 241 -95 = 146 neutrons. That principle applies to all the elements.
Can you list particles from smallest to greatest mass?
electrons are the lightest then protons then neutrons
What are carbon 12 carbon 13 carbon 14 are examples of?
isotopes of carbon
Isotopes of an element have a different number of?
neutrons
What atom has 5 protons and 6 neutrons and 5 electrons?
I'm almost positive the protons always tell you the identification of an element on the periodic chart... the atom with 6 protons is Carbon a non metal but if electrons are 5 then it must be carbon cation C+.
How do you find the neutrons of an element using only the atomic number?
You can't. You can narrow it down a bit---most stable elements have a neutron-to-proton ratio of between 1.5:1 and 1:1 (depending on size). So if you know how many neutrons an element has you can make an educated guess as to approximately how many protons it will have. However, it is impossible to know exactly how many protons an element has based on its number of neutrons, and since the number of protons determines the element's identity, you cannot learn an element's identity from its number of neutrons. For example---all of the following isotopes can be formed with 7 neutrons, with stable ones bolded and underlined: He-9, Li-10, Be-11, B-12, C-13, N-14, O-15, F-16, Ne-17, Na-18, and Mg-19.
