Number of neutrons = Atomic Mass - Atomic number
So Fluorine = 19- 9 = 10 and Neon = 20-10 = 10 :)
Under bombardment with thermal neutrons a nuclear fission is produced with the isotopes 235U and 233U; a formidable energy is released after fission.
No two subatomic particles have the exact same mass. The proton and the neutron, however, come close. Neutrons are heavier than protons by only 2.3 X 10-30 kg. (Neutron: 1.674927351 x 10-27, Proton: 1.672621777 x 10-27)
Any atom of magnesium will have 12 protons.Neutral atoms of Mg-24 will have 12 neutrons and 12 electrons. Mg-25 has 13 neutrons and Mg-26 has 14 neutrons. A magnesium ion will have either 10 or 11 electrons.
61 neutrons 10 electrons 46 protons

Fluorine (18.994-9=10 neutrons) and Neon (20.180-10=10 neutrons)
10 protons, 12 neutrons
All oxygen atoms contain 8 protons in their nuclei. All neutral oxygen atoms have 8 electrons. There are three isotopes of oxygen, containing 8,9, or 10 neutrons in their nuclei.

The main difference is that hydrogen nuclei have 1 proton whereas helium nuclei have 2 protons. The number of neutrons depends on the "isotope". Usually, a hydrogen nucleus does not have neutrons and is simply a proton. The helium nucleus usually has 2 neutrons.
Based on the extreme case of Hydrogen which has one proton and no neutrons for 0%, Large nuclei would have a larger percentage.
Nuclei contain protons (positively charged particles) and neutrons (no charge). numbers of neutrons and protons makes up mass of atom.
(Explanation): remember that if an atom has less than 20 protons, the closer the number of neutrons and protons are, the more stable it is. Since 10 is closest to 12 out of these options, D is the correct answer.
Nuclear fission. It realeases nuclear energy by spitting big atomic nuclei, usually those of uranium. Neutrons are fired at the nuclei. As the neutrons smash into the nuclei they split off more neutrons, which bombard other nuclei, setting of a chain reaction, which makes energy.

Nuclei is the plural form of nucleus. A nucleus is the center of an atom that holds all the protons and neutrons.
