To find the number of neutrons in an atom, first find the atomic weight of the element and round that number to the nearest whole number. Then, find the atomic number of the element. Subtract that number from the atomic weight and the number of neutrons will be found.
24, it's the number of protons and neutrons, i.e. the number of sub-atomic particles in the nucleus.
nucleons
There are no 'nucleons' in an Oxygen atom. You mean 'neutrons'. As all the mass of an atom is in its nucleus (made up of 'protons' and 'neutrons') and as the Atomic Number is the count of how many 'protons' there are, if you subtract the Atomic Number form the Atomic Mass, you get the number of 'nutrons'. 17-8=9.
protons and neutrons, collectively called nucleons, at their core. The number of protons in the nucleus determines the element's identity, while the total number of nucleons determines the atom's mass number. Electrons orbit the nucleus in distinct energy levels.
Protons and neutrons are collectively called nucleons, which are particles found in the nucleus of an atom. Nucleons are responsible for the majority of an atom's mass and exist alongside electrons in an atom.

The "11" refers, precisely, to the number of nucleons.
The atomic number represents the number of protons in an atom's nucleus, while the number of nucleons includes both protons and neutrons. The atomic number uniquely identifies an element, while the number of nucleons determines the atom's mass.
It gives the number of nucleons = protons + neutrons.
Yes, the difference between the mass number and the atomic number of an isotope equals the number of neutrons in the nucleus, which are also known as nucleons. This relationship helps to identify the number of neutrons in an isotope based on its atomic and mass numbers.
no there are different elements, and you can check a periodic table for more information.

No, the total number of nucleons in the nucleus remains constant during a decay chain. The total number of protons and neutrons may change as individual particles are emitted during decay, but the overall number of nucleons (protons and neutrons combined) remains the same within a closed system.
