The position of Carbon on the Periodic Table tells you how many protons carbon has in its nucleus. The number after it tells you the total number of protons and neutrons. You can take the number after it and subtract its number on the periodic table and get the number of neutrons.
For example: Helium is the second element in the periodic table. Helium 3 has two protons and one neutron. Helium 4 has 2 protons and 2 neutrons. Since it is element number 2 it has two protons.
Now try that with carbon.
Protons: 5 Neutrons: 7 Electrons: 5
To be a carbon atom or ion, it must contain 6 protons. There may be either 6, 7 or 8 neutrons along with the protons in the nucleus.
The most stable isotope of sulfur (S-32) has 16 electrons, 16 protons and 16 neutrons.
The Bromine atom contains: 35 protons, 35 electrons, and 45 neutrons.
the atomic mass of carbon 13 is 13 lt has six protons how many neutrons does this isotope
7 protons, 7 neutrons and 7 electrons
Each atom has a unique combination of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
117 neutrons in Pt-195 isotope.
Protons and neutrons each have an atomic mass of 1 So, 38-15=23 Neutrons
a neon atom has 10 electrons , 10 protons , and 10 neutrons. its mass no. is 20 and atomic no. is 10. it is a stable atom.
there are 7 neutrons because when you take away the number of protons, which is 7 as well, from the atomic mass, which is 14 when rounded, you get 7 which is the number of neutrons in nitrogen.
A typical atom of iodine contains 74 neutrons.
If the atomic mass of the atom is 48 and it contains 20 protons, then the atom contains 28 neutrons. This can be calculated by subtracting the number of protons from the atomic mass, since the atomic mass includes both protons and neutrons.
Each element has a different number of protons and neutrons. So it changes for each element.
45 neutrons
A stable atom of Zinc (Zn) typically has 34 neutrons.
The atomic weight minus the number of protons = the atom's neutrons.
