From the Periodic Table, the atomic number of iron (Fe) is 26. This means that iron atoms have 26 protons in their nuclei. Mass number is the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an isotope of an element. So, for your example of 31 neutrons, the sum of the number of protons (26) and neutrons (31) is 57. So the mass number of this iron atom is 57.
69
Protons + Electrons - Neutrons 0
An atom is made up of protons, neutrons and electrons. The protons and neutrons form a nucleus where the majority of the mass is; the electrons are in orbit around the nucleus.
The nucleus is an organelle, enclosed within the cell that stores the cell's DNA (genes and chromosomes) and coordinates the cell's activities. The nucleus is the control center for the cell.
Because in a normal atom the are there are the same numbers of electrons and protons. Charge of an electron is 1- and charge of a proton is 1+, thus the overall charge will be zero.
how many particles are found in the nucleus of a uranium atom? 92 protons and x neutrons; the number of the neutrons is dependent of the isotope atomic mass. Also 92 electrons.
Neutrons have no charge. When the number of protons of an atom is equal to the number of electrons in it, the atom is neutral, in other words, it has no charge.
False. The atom that has the same number of protons as it has electrons is a neutral atom.
no electrons
To have a neutral atom, the atom must have the same amount of protons, neutrons, and electrons inside of it.
7 protons, 7 electrons and 8 neutrons
It will have 6 electrons since an atom is neutral when its number of protons is the same as its number of electrons.
False. An atom is neutral if it has an equal number of protons and neutrons
neutrons, just think neutron = neutral
yes. also, all atoms are neutral.
If the atom is neutral, then it will have 15 electrons to balance the 15 protons.
An atom is made up of subatomic particles called protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons have a positive charge, Neutrons are neutral, and electrons have a negative charge. :-)
49 protons, 64 neutrons and 49 electrons.
