Is the atomic mass equal to the number of atoms in the elements?

The mass number of an isotope of an element is equal to its Atomic Mass number. However, the atomic weight of an element is a weighted average of the isotopes that occur in the element in nature. Because almost all elements have more than one naturally occurring isotope (if they have any), the atomic weights of most elements are not integers, as mass numbers always are.

∙ 10y agoNo. Atomic mass is the mass of all of the protons, neutrons, and electrons in a single atom of an element at rest. This is not the same as the atomic weight, or relative atomic mass, given for each element on the Periodic Table. The atomic weights, or relative atomic masses, are the relative atomic masses of the elements in the crust of the earth and atmosphere.

∙ 13y agoNo. The number of protons in an atom is equal to its atomic number. Atomic mass is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoNo, the atomic mass number is equal to the (SUM of the) number of neutrons AND protons.

Atomic number is equal to?
no of the protons or the no of electron is equal to the atomic no denoted by the symbol Z
How many atoms do there be in sulfur?
there are 16 atoms in sulfur, because the number of atoms in an element is equal to its atomic number, which is the number at the top of the square which is bolded
The atomic number equals?
The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of the atoms of a given number. The elements are arranged in increasing order of atomic number on the periodic table. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons, however, the number of electrons is not the atomic number of an element.
How many electrons does a gold atom contain?
The elements in the Periodic Table are arranged in order by atomic number. The atomic number of gold (Au) is 79. Atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of the atoms of that element. So gold atoms have 79 protons in their nuclei. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is equal to the numbers of protons. So a neutral gold atom has 79 electrons.
Atomic number equals the number of?
The atomic number is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus and in a neutral atom will also equal the number of electrons.
Is the atomic number the number of atoms it has?
The atomic number is equal to the number of protons.
What is number of protons of an atom is the atoms atomic number?
The number of protons in the atomic nucleus is equal to atomic number.
What is the atomic number also equal to?
The atomic number is equal to the protons and electrons of an element.
How is an atoms atomic number related to it's number of protons?
The atomic number IS the number of protons. Elements are classified based on their proton count since no two elements have the same number of protons. This is better than the old periodic table where elements were classified by atomic mass since isotopes exist.
Does a neutron contribute to the atoms atomic number?
Nope, the atomic number is equal to the number of protons.
The atomic number is equal to the numbers of?
The atomic number is the number of protons in the nuclei of the atoms of a particular element. The elements are arranged in increasing order of atomic number on the periodic table. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons equals the number of protons. However, the number of electrons is not the atomic number.
How are elements described in terms of the atoms?
Each chemical element has atoms with a specific number of protons, different from the atoms of other elements.
What are protons and electrons equal to on the periodic table?
The equivalence is with the atomic number.
Equal to the number of protons in an atom found on the periodic table?
The atomic number or the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons.
What are elements determined by number?
You think probable to atomic number, equal to the number of protons in the atomic nucleus.
How is an atoms atomic number related to number of protons?
number of proton is equal to the atomic number of element in Periodic Table
How is an atom's atomic number related to it's number of electrons?
For neutral atoms the atomic number is equal to the number of electrons.
