How many protons and eletrons does carbon have?
count the number of protons which will be equal to number of electron.
How many protons are there in the c-12?
All isotopes of the same element differ only in the number of neutrons, not protons. As we are talking about carbon, all isotopes of carbon have 6 protons.There are 6 protons in C-12 isotope. Its atomic number is also 6.The number of neutrons is also 6.
Do protons circle the nucleus of an atom?
Nuclei of atoms contain protons (+) and neutrons. The electrons (-) circle the nucleus on orbitals, forming the electron cloud. In a balanced or neutral atom, there will be the same number of protons in the nucleus as there are electrons outside of the nucleus. The number of neutrons can vary within the same element; that's how you get isotopes (e.g. Carbon-13 has 6 protons, 6 electrons, and 7 neutrons...The 13 is the atomic mass representing the sum of the protons and neutrons)
What number of protons does carbon atom become unstable?
Carbon atom contains only 6 protons. It is become unstable when number of neutrons are increasing.
How many subatomic particles in sodium?
It really depends in which atom you're talking about. because a hydrogen atom which it's atomic number is 1 has 1 electron, 1 neutron, and 1 proton; the helium atom, has an atomic number of 2, the nitrogen atom of 7, and Unumquadium of 114, meaning that Unumquadium has 342 subatomic particles( a radioactive element , and also a syntetic one, meaning that it is not found in nature, and its manmade)
What is the mass number of an atom with 6 protons and 10 neutrons?
mass number= no. of neutrons + no. of protons so the mass number will be 6+8 which is 14 the mass number = 14 :)
How many neutrons does carbon have if its mass number is 14?
6. Carbon's atomic number is 6, meaning it has 6 protons and 6 neutrons. Carbon-14 has a mass number of 14, meaning it has extra neutrons, but no extra protons. So Carbon 14 still has 6 protons, and it has 8 (14-6) neutrons.
How is the atomic mass of an element used to determine the number of nuetrons in its atom?
Different isotopes of the same element have different numbers of neutrons but the same number of protons. The sum of the protons and neutrons is called the mass number. If you know the mass number and the number of protons (which is the atomic number), then you simply subtract the protons (or atomic number) from the mass number and the result is the number of neutrons. Example: Carbon-14 has a mass number of 14. Carbon's atomic number (and number of protons) is 6. So, 14 - 6 = 8 neutrons.
How many neutrons does a carbon atom have with the mass number of 14 and an atomic number of 6 have?
Nitrogen is a non metal element. Atomic mass number of it is 14.
Atomic number of an element is 6 and atomic weight is 14 it has --- number of protons and --- number of electrons?
The isotope carbon 14: Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons = 6 Atomic mass: 14,003241
What element mass number equals to 14 with having 6 protons?
carbon
If an atomic number of an element is 6 and its mass is 14 how many neutrons are contained in the nucleus?
The atomic number always corresponds with the number of protons in the atom, therefore, since the atomic number is six, there are six protons in the atom.Because the atom has no specified charge, you can assume that the charge is zero and that there are the same number of electrons as protons, also six.The mass of an atom is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons because electrons are tiny. So, you know there is a mass of 14, subtract six from the protons and you get the neutrons (14-6protons=8neutrons)Hope this helped!!
How many neutrons dose carbon 14 have?
Carbon's got an atomic number of 6. That means it has six protons. Carbon-14 means the atomic mass is 14. Atomic mass is Neutrons+Protons. 14-6=8
What is the mass number of an element that consists of 6 protons 6 electrons and 8 neutrons?
Just add the protons and the neutrons. The answer is 14.
How many protons does an atomic number of 6 and a mass number of 14 have?
The mass number of an isotope of an element is defined as the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of each atom of the isotope. The atomic number is defined as the number of protons only in the nucleus. Therefore, an atom with an atomic number of 6 has 6 protons in its nucleus.
How many protons neutrons and electrons in carbon-14?
Carbon 14 has 6 protons, 8 neutrons, and (in the neutral atom) 6 electrons.
How many neutrons does an atom of carbon 14 have?
6 protons [because Carbon is number 6] 6 electrons [because if you want it to be neutral it has to be same as protons number] 8 neutrons [because atomic mass contains neutrons + protons. 14 - 6 = 8]
