The ÊMass ÊofÊ Êa Sn atom having 50 protons and Ê70 neutrons Êin its Ênucleus is 120 amu. It is given ÊbyÊsumming up the number of protonsÊ and neutrons.
An atom's mass is concentrated in its nucleus, which is located in the center of the atom. Protons and neutrons within the nucleus are responsible for its mass; the electrons, which are located outside of the nucleus, don't contribute to the mass of the atom.
Nucleus. Composed of Protons and neutrons. Can be sub-divided further but you probably don't have to know that. (quarks and muons and such.)
number of protons and number of neutrons
Physics has not managed to discover a particle that accounts for mass
The sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus
The mass of an atom is concentrated in the nucleus, which is made up of protons and neutrons.
An atom's mass is concentrated in its nucleus, which is located in the center of the atom. Protons and neutrons within the nucleus are responsible for its mass; the electrons, which are located outside of the nucleus, don't contribute to the mass of the atom.
Protons, and neutrons make up the nucleus of an atom. The nucleus is the centre of an atom where most of the mass is found. Protons are positively charged, neutrons have no charge.
The nucleus of an atom is the central part of an atom containing practically all the mass of the atom. The nucleus is composed from protons and neutrons.
The nucleus, made up of protons and neutrons, contains most of an atom's mass.

number of protons and number of neutrons
The number of neutrons and protons in the nucleus of the atom.
Physics has not managed to discover a particle that accounts for mass
Most of the mass in an atom is found in the nucleus, which contains the protons and neutrons.
The atomic mass of an atom is the combined mass of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
