The mass number of an ion remains the same as the element. This is because an ion gains or loses electrons which have minimal mass.
The mass number of an atom or ion is determined by adding together the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Protons and neutrons contribute roughly the same amount of mass to an atom, so the mass number gives a good approximation of the atomic mass.
The problem statement that the ion has a plus 1 charge means that there is one more proton than electron in the ion. Therefore, the ion contains 106 protons and 157 neutrons and thus has a mass number of 106 + 157 or 263 amu.
No, the atomic number remains the same when an ion is formed. The atomic number is determined by the number of protons in an atom, which does not change when an atom becomes an ion by gaining or losing electrons.
The element is cesium (Cs) and the cation is Cs^1+
There are 10 neutrons in the ion 18O2. This is calculated by subtracting the atomic number of the oxygen ion (8) from its mass number (18), as neutrons are equal to the difference between these two values.
The ion is a lead ion with a 4+ charge. Its atomic number is 84, and its mass number is 208 (since the mass number is one less than the atomic mass for this particular ion).
The ion with an atomic number of 16, mass 33 and 18 electrons is the sulfide ion S2-
The mass number of an ion is calculated by adding the number of protons and neutrons. Since the ion has 107 electrons and a charge of +1, it must have 108 protons (107 electrons + 1). Therefore, the mass number is 108 protons + 158 neutrons, which equals 266. Thus, the mass number of the ion is 266.
The mass number of an ion is equal to the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but differ in the number of neutrons. Therefore, the mass number of an ion can be the same as the number of isotopes because isotopes contribute to varying mass numbers in the element.
The sulfide ion, S2-.
The mass number of an atom or ion is determined by adding together the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Protons and neutrons contribute roughly the same amount of mass to an atom, so the mass number gives a good approximation of the atomic mass.
The mass of an ion with 107 electrons would depend on the specific element of the ion. You would need to know the atomic number of the element to calculate the mass accurately using the atomic mass of the element.
The difference in mass between a sodium atom and a sodium ion (supposing Na+) is 9.10938188 × 10-31kg (the mass of an electron). This is due to the sodium atom losing an electron to form an ion. In order to attain the mass of a single sodium atom you need to divide the molar massn (mass number) of sodium by avogadro's number. You can then find the mass of the ion by subtracting the mass of an electron from the mass of a sodium atom.

37, as the isotope is identified by its mass number.
To calculate the ion mass, you would sum the mass of its protons and neutrons. The mass of a proton is approximately 1.0073 atomic mass units (u), and the mass of a neutron is approximately 1.0087 u. Add up the number of protons and neutrons in the ion to get the total mass.
Iron is a meta element. Atomic Mass of it is 54. Atomic number of it is 26.
