Lithium by default contains 3 protons and 4 neutrons so its Atomic Mass is 6.941 amu (atomic mass units)
To calculate the mass of Lithium's nucleus, one would use the formula:
nuclear mass = A x u
Where A is the number of protons and neutrons and u is the value one an atomic mass unit (1.66x10^-27 kg)
So:
7x1u = 1.162x10^-26 kg
7. Lithium has 3 protons (if it had any other number, it wouldn't be lithium) plus 4 neutrons to get an atomic mass of 7.
Mass number = 7, Atomic number = 3
7 daltons
8 amu
The atomic number of lithium is 3. Therefor there are 3 protons and neutron in the nucleus of lithium. Lithium also has 4 neutrons. atomic # = protons and neutrons neutrons = rounded atomic mass - atomic number Sources- 7th grade Acc. Science
It contains the nucleons (protons and neutrons)
nucleus
No, the nucleus contains protons and neutrons. Electrons are outside of the nucleus.
The nucleus of an atom contains sub atomic particles such as protons which are positively charged and neutrons which do not have a charge. Protons and neutrons are collectively termed as nucleons.

No, the nucleus contains protons and neutrons. Electrons are outside of the nucleus.
The "dense" central portion of an atom is called the nucleus. The nucleus of an atom contains neutrons and protons.
The nucleus of an atom contains neutrons and protons and protons, in turn, contain quarks.

The nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons. Different amount of neutrons- Isotopes. Different amount of protons- Different element.
The atomic nucleus contain neutrons and protons.
An atom contains protons and neutrons in the nucleus (though Hydrogen does not have neutrons) and electrons orbiting the nucleus.
