We can find Atomic Mass and mass number in chemical elements. Atomic mass is about weight of the atom. Mass number is about total of neutrons and protons.

What information does the mass number give?
the mass of an atom of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units. It is approximately equivalent to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom (the mass number) or to the average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.
How can you determine the number of neutrons in an atom if its mass number and its atomic number are known?
It is impossible to determine the number of neutrons from the mass number and atomic mass, since the two are essentially same value. However, with the atomic number and the mass number, one can calculate the number of neutrons by subtracting the atomic number from the mass number.
What does the number of neutrons determine?
they determine the atomic mass of the atom
What is the difference between the atomic number and the atomic weight of the known elements as listed on the periodic table?
The atomic number of the element is the number of protons or number of electrons in an atom of the element . The atomic weight of the element is the ratio of the mass of the atom to the 1/12th of the mass of the atom of carbon 12.
What is The atomic weight of an atom reflects the average number of?
the mass of an atom of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units. It is approximately equivalent to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom (the mass number) or to the average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.
How are the atomic mass and the atomic number different?
the atomic mass is the number of protons and neutrons in an atom of an element and the atomic number is the number of protons of an atom of an element.
Why atomic mass is different from the mass numbers?
atomic mass is the number of protons in an atom mass number is the number of protons plus neutrons in an atom
What is an atomic mass number?
Atomic mass and atomic number are two different things. Atomic mass is the mass of an atom compared to that of hydrogen. The atomic number is the atom's position in the periodic table. It's also the number of protons it has.
What has a different mass number than the normal atom?
We can find atomic mass and mass number in chemical elements. Atomic mass is about weight of the atom. Mass number is about total of neutrons and protons.
What is the number of neutrons in an atom affects the atomic what?
The number of neutrons in an atom can affect the atomic mass of an atom.
What is the atomic mass of and atom?
the mass of an atom of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units. It is approximately equivalent to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom (the mass number) or to the average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.
How is the mass number different from the average atomic mass?
We can find atomic mass and mass number in chemical elements. Atomic mass is about weight of the atom. Mass number is about total of neutrons and protons.
How many protons and neutrons are in the nucleus of the atom?
No it is not the atomic number. We call it mass number.
What is ment by the atomic mass of an atom?
the mass of an atom of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units. It is approximately equivalent to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom (the mass number) or to the average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.
What does the atomic mass of atom state?
the mass of an atom of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units. It is approximately equivalent to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom (the mass number) or to the average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.
What does the atomic mass of an atom represent?
the mass of an atom of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units. It is approximately equivalent to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom (the mass number) or to the average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.
What can the atomic mass tell you about an atom?
the mass of an atom of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units. It is approximately equivalent to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom (the mass number) or to the average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.
