There can not be an atom with more electrons than protons, however to find the Atomic Mass of any atom disregard the electrons and add the number of protons and nuetrons together. The previous answer is correct in that the atomic mass is equal to the number of protons plus the number of neutrons. The atomic number is the number of protons and in a neutral atom the number of protons and electrons are equal. Atoms have can have a charge, they are then called ions. The way the become charged is either through the loss (oxidation) or gain (reduction) of electrons. Therefore it is possible to have a charged atom with more or less electrons than protons.
7 protons , 8 neutrons and 7 electrons in the neutral atom. Nitrogen has an atomic number of 7. The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus. In the neutral atom this is also the number of electrons . The "15" in nitrogen-15 is the mass number, the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Taking 7 from 15 there are therefore 8 neutrons in nitrogen-15.
A neutral atom of neon with atomic number 10 has 10 protons and 10 electrons. The mass number of 22 indicates the total number of protons and neutrons combined. Since the atomic number is 10, the number of neutrons is 22 - 10 = 12.
Xenon has 54 protons, 77 neutrons, and 54 electrons. The number of protons determines the element's chemical properties, while the total number of protons and neutrons determines the atomic mass. Electrons equal the number of protons in a neutral atom.
30 10 protons 10 neutrons 10 electrons
To find the atomic number, you need to subtract the number of neutrons from the total mass number of the atom. In this case, the total mass number would be 84 (34 electrons + 50 neutrons). If the atom is neutral, the atomic number would also be 34, as it would have an equal number of protons and electrons.
Sulfur has 16 electrons, protons and neutrons.
The weight of an atom is primarily controlled by the total number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus. Protons and neutrons have approximately the same weight, while electrons have negligible mass compared to protons and neutrons.
The number of protons
The atomic mass of an atom is determined by the combined masses of its protons, neutrons, and electrons. While electrons contribute very little to the atomic mass, the protons and neutrons, found in the nucleus, account for the majority of an atom's mass.
7 protons , 8 neutrons and 7 electrons in the neutral atom. Nitrogen has an atomic number of 7. The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus. In the neutral atom this is also the number of electrons . The "15" in nitrogen-15 is the mass number, the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Taking 7 from 15 there are therefore 8 neutrons in nitrogen-15.
Zinc chloride has the chemical formula ZnCl2.The total number of protons is 64; the total number of electrons is also 64.The number of neutrons depends on the isotopes of Zn and Cl.
A neutral atom of neon with atomic number 10 has 10 protons and 10 electrons. The mass number of 22 indicates the total number of protons and neutrons combined. Since the atomic number is 10, the number of neutrons is 22 - 10 = 12.
Xenon has 54 protons, 77 neutrons, and 54 electrons. The number of protons determines the element's chemical properties, while the total number of protons and neutrons determines the atomic mass. Electrons equal the number of protons in a neutral atom.
The mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons (together known as nucleons) in an atomic nucleus.Thus add the number of neutrons (20) to the atomic number (which is a count of the number of protons) 19 to give a mass number of 39.
Protons = 92 Electrons = 92 Neutrons = 146 The number of electrons and protons in a neutral atom are each equal to the atomic number of the element (92). The number of neutrons equals the atomic weight minus the number of protons (238 - 92 = 146).Uranium has 92 protons, 92 electrons, and usually 147 neutrons, though another isotope has 143 neutrons.
30 10 protons 10 neutrons 10 electrons
Phosphorus has an atomic no. of 15 and its atomic mass is 31.=we know,atomic no.=number of protons==also, atomic mass=no.of protons+no. of neutrons==this implies, 31=15+no. of neutrons= 31-15=no. of neutrons= 16=no. of neutrons==also,no. of protons=no, of electrons=so, total no. of protons=15total no. of electrons=15total no. of neutrons=16
