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.
If 2 protons are removed from an oxygen nucleus?
You will have an unstable carbon atom. The result will be carbon
How many subatomic does nitrogen have?
Nuetral nitrogen atoms have 7 protons and 7 electrons.
How many protons make up an atom of nitrogen-15?
7 electrons because there are 7 protons in N
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)
How is carbon atom different from a sodium atom?
hi, a carbon atom has 6 protons while sodium atom has 7 protons.
Is an atom a oxygen atom or carbon atom?
That would depend on how many protons exist in the nucleus of the atom. An atom with 6 protons is a carbon atom; 7 protons is nitrogen, and 8 = oxygen.
Which best describes an atom of carbon-13?
An atom of carbon with 6 protons and 7 neutrons.
How many protons are there in the neutral atom of 13C?
There are 6 protons in a neutral atom of Carbon 13
How many protons does an atom of carbon have?
An Carbon Atom has an total of 6 protons.
How many electrons protons and neutrons are in a carbon atom?
6 protons, 6 electrons and 6 protons in carbon-12 atom
What is the difference in carbon that has an atomic mass of 12 and one that has an atomic mass of 14?
A carbon atom with a mass of 12 has 6 protons and 6 neutrons in its nucleus. This configuration is stable. A carbon atom with a mass of 14 has 6 protons and 8 neutrons in its nucleus, making it somewhat heavier. This configuration is unstable and the nucleus will eventually emit an electron, converting the carbon atom into a nitrogen atom with 7 protons and 7 neutrons in the nucleus.
How many protons are found in carbon How many neutrons are found in carbon?
To be a carbon atom or ion, it must contain 6 protons. There may be either 6, 7 or 8 neutrons along with the protons in the nucleus.
What is the number of protons in this carbon atom?
For any Carbon atom, irrespective of its isotopic mass , there are 6(six) protons.
How many protons are in an atom with atomic mass of 6 and mass number of 13?
The atomic number is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus. The mass number is equal to the total number of nucleons (both protons and neutrons). Therefore, there are 13 protons and neutrons, 6 of which are protons, leaving the remaining 7 to be neutrons. In short, 6 protons, 7 neutrons. You're referring to carbon-13, an uncommon isotope of carbon. Sharondenadel The atomic number is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus.

Elements with 6 protons?
The element with 6 protons is carbon (C).
How many protons are in a nitrogren atom?
there are 7 protons in each nitrogen atom.
