NOT only 15 but 14 is more common (92%)

Explanation:

Si (atom number 14) has three naturally occurring isotopes with mass numbers:

28 (92%), 29 (5%), and 30 (3%).

They have respetively 14, 15 and 16 neutrons.

(This is because 'mass number' minus 'atom number' equals 'neutron number')

How many protons and neutrons are in silicon?

Silicon's atomic number is 14. Therefore it has 14 protons and 14 electrons. The number of neutrons can vary by isotope. Most silicon is silicon-28 with 14 neutrons. There are stable isotopes with 15 or 16 neutrons. The unstable (radioactive) isotope is silicon-32 with 18 neutrons (half-life 170 years).

How many neutrons does silicon 27 have?

Silicon-27 has 14 protons (since it is silicon) and 13 neutrons, as the atomic number (proton number) minus the mass number (proton number + neutron number) gives the number of neutrons. In this case, 27 - 14 = 13 neutrons.


How many neutrons do silicon have?

Silicon has 14 protons, so it typically has 14 neutrons as well to maintain a stable atomic structure.
