What are particles in an atom called that have no charge?
Neutrons have a neutral charge. They do not add or subtract from the overall charge like protons and electrons do. They do,however, add mass to the atom.
What increases on a atom when neutrons do not add to the charge of an atom when its neutral?
Mass number increases as neutron is added
Does the nucleus of an atom have protons neutrons electron?
no, they don't. instead they make up the nucleus of the atom. protons and neutrons are made of quarks, which are held together by gluons.which means that the nuceuls and electrons together make the atom.
Where is most of the mass of an atom contained?
When calculating the mass of an atom, you add the mass of the protons and the neutrons. This is the nucleus of the atom. The electrons are small enough to be ignored except in the most delicate calculations.
When the central region of an atom where its neutrons and protons are?
The protons and neutrons of an atom are found in the nucleus of the atom.
Neutrons add only to an atom?
Neutrons are neutral particles, so they donâ??t change the charge of an atom. They do however, change the atomic mass.
What is the mass of an isotope of this atom that has 2 neutrons?
It is 3 because you have to add the neutrons and the protons.
What is the mass number of an isotope of this atom that has neutrons?
It is 3 because you have to add the neutrons and the protons.
What is the number of an atom with 5 protons and 7 neutrons?
To the find the mass number of an atom you add the protons and neutrons. Meaning that the mass number of this atom is 12.
What is mass number of an isotope of this atom that has 2 neutrons?
It is 3 because you have to add the neutrons and the protons.
What are particles in an atom called that have no charge?
Neutrons have a neutral charge. They do not add or subtract from the overall charge like protons and electrons do. They do,however, add mass to the atom.
The protons and neutrons in an atom add up to give the atom's?
Mass number/Atomic Mass
What is equal to the total number of protons and neutrons?
If you add the number of protons to the number of neutrons in an atom, you have calculated that atom's atomic mass.
Do all atoms contain at least one nuetron?
no, atoms don't have to have neutrons, neutrons are supposed to be neutral so it wont change the charge of the atom if you add or subtract neutrons from an atom. what will change is the mass number of the atom.
An atom has 14 protons and 13 neutrons what it its atomic mass?
27 add protons and neutrons
Do you have to add the protons and electrons in order to find the atomic mass of an atom?
no, you add the protons and neutrons
What increases on a atom when neutrons do not add to the charge of an atom when its neutral?
Mass number increases as neutron is added
