Glad you asked. Tin, which has 50 protons, has different "versions" that each have a different number of neutrons. We use the term isotope to denote the different versions of any element when we talk about that element's different nuclear configurations, its different numbers of neutrons. Some of these isotopes are stable and some are not. (Some elements have no stable isotopes - all their isotopes are unstable and undergo radioactive decay.) Let's check out tin.

Tin has more stable isotopes than any other element. There are 50 protons in every tin atom (which is what makes it tin), and there are isotopes of tin that have 62, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 72 and 74 neutrons which are all stable. There are some "gaps" in there, but there are isotopes of tin that "fill in the gaps" and also a lot of other isotopes, and they are made in the physics lab. There are isotopes of tin with from 49 to 87 neutrons, and they can all be seen by using the link to the table posted by our friends at Wikipedia. You'll find that link below.

you didn't answwer the question at all.

The atomic number of tin is 50, so there are 50 electrons and protons. There are 69 neutrons. See related link.

Tin has quite a few isotopes and so it can vary. However, for the 119 Atomic Weight usually quoted on the Periodic Table, and atomic number 50, would mean 119-50 = 69 neutrons.

How many protons and neutrons in isotopes of tin?

Every atom of tin has 50 protons in its nucleus. And there will be 50 electrons around a neutral atom of tin. The number of neutrons varies because there are different isotopes of tin. Tin is interesting in that it is the element with the greatest number of stable isotopes of all the elements in the periodic table. It has 10 stable isotopes, and they are tin-112 (62 neutrons), tin-114 (64 neutrons), tin-115 (65 neutrons), tin-116 (66 neutrons), tin-117, (67 neutrons), tin-118, (68 neurtons), tin-119, (69 neutrons), tin-120 (70 neutrons), tin-122 (72 neutrons), and tin-124 (74 neutrons). There are other isotopes of tin ranging from tin-99 to tin-137, and the neutron count in any one of them can be found by subtracting the atomic number of tin (which is 50, or the number of protons in the nucleus), from the mass number of the isotop. For instance, if we are interested in tin-121, it has 121 minus 50 or 71 neutrons in it. You'll find links below for more information.


How many neutrons does an atom of tin 115 have?

All tin isotopes have 50 protons. For neutral atoms, the number of electrons will also be 50. The neutron number is 119 - 50, which is 69.

What is the correct number of subatomic particles in an atom of an element with atomic number 48 and mass number 120?

The atomic number of an atom tells you how many protons are present in the nucleus. So there are 50 in the element. By the way, an element with 50 protons and 70 neutrons (120-50) is a stable form of Tin.

What is the tin bohr model?

The bohr model of an atom shows the number of electrons, neutrons, and protons contained in the atom. Each electron is in an orbital (the lines), and the protons and neutrons are contained in the nucleus (the center thingy).


What are the number of electrons tin has?

if you want a neutral atom of tin, you would need 50 electrons, because there are 50 protons. you can also conclude this because tin's atomic number is 50. the atomic number always equals the number of protons, and the number of protons always equals the amount of electrons.


If an atom of tin has a mass number of 118 and an atomic number of 50 how many neutrons are in its nucleus?

AnswerProtons = 4Neutrons = 5There are four protons, four electrons, and five neutrons.You can find the number of protons by looking and the atomic number, and because this atom is not an ion (a charged atom), the number of protons and electrons are equal.You can find the number of neutrons by subtracting the number of the protons from the atomic mass. In this case, 9 minus 4 equals 5 for the number of neutrons. Your atom is the element beryllium, and is specifically the one stable isotope of that element, 9Be.
