How do you calculate the number of protons neutrons and electrons in C-14?

The number of protons in all atoms, ions, or isotopes of carbon will have six protons. If the particle had a different number of protons, it would be a different element. In an atom, the charge of one proton will balance/cancel out the charge of one electron. So in a neutral atom of carbon, there would be six electrons to cancel the six protons. The "14" in "C-14" is the mass number - the sum of the number of protons and neutrons. If we know that there are six protons, the subtraction will give us eight neutrons.

How do you calculate the number of protons neutrons and electrons of an atom?
The charge of an ion can be calculated by adding up the protons and subtracting the electrons. When oxygen with 8 protons has 8 electrons it is neutral, when it has 7 electrons it is positively charged.
Determine the numbers of electrons protons neutrons 80 35 Br?
Number of Protons: 35 Number of Neutrons:45 Number of Electrons:35
What is the protons neutrons and electrons for 65Zn?
Protons- 30 Electrons- 30 Neutrons- 35 Zn-65 means the atomic number plus the number of neutrons equals 65. Zinc always has 30 protons; therefore, it's atomic number is 30 and it has 30 protons and electrons. The remaining number is the neutrons: 65-30= 35

What are the number of protons neutrons and electrons in an element?
Number of protons = Number of electrons = Atomic number Number of neutrons = Atomic number - Number of protons
Do electrons equal the sum of the number of neutrons and protons in an isotope?
No. The number of neutrons has no affect on the number of protons and electrons.
What is the number of neutrons electrons and protons in nitrogen14?
there are 7 neutrons, 7 protons, and....----electrons
How many protons electrons and neutrons does americium have?
Americium has 95 protons and electrons. Number of neutrons: atomic mass of an isotope - number of protons
How would you calculate the atomic mass of atom without using the periodic table if you know the number of protons electrons and neutrons?
Add the number of protons plus the number of neutrons for an approximate answer. Compared to protons and neutrons, electrons have zero mass - it takes over 1800 electrons to equal the mass of a proton or neutron.
Determine the numbers of electrons protons neutrons 80 35 Br?
Number of Protons: 35 Number of Neutrons:45 Number of Electrons:35
How many electrons protons and neutrons are in uranium?
Uranium isotopes have 92 protons and electrons; the number of neutrons is different for each isotope.Number of neutrons = Mass number - Number of protons
