Lithium has 3 protons. The atomic number and the number of protons will be the same.
Mass number minus atomic number equals number of neutrons. In this instance, 4.
C. 4 neutrons.
The number of electrons is equal to the number of protons which determines it's atomic number. Therefore, the element with 3 electrons is the one with 3 protons which has an atomic number of three which is Lithium (symbol - Li, amu - 6.941)
It is lithium(Li) . NB Most elements produce isotopes. Hydrogen has 3 isotopes. Carbon has 3 isotopes Chlorine has 2 isotopes. To name but a few.
The atomic number is equal to the protons and electrons of an element.
The number of protons in the nucleus of of the element. For Plato Its C :)
The atomic number of an element refers to the number of protons.
No. Lithium is an element with atomic number 3 (or 3 protons) and neon is an element with atomic number 10 (or 10 protons). Both are not same.
Lithium as number of protons is equal to the atomic number..
Lithium has the atomic number of 3, which means it has 3 protons, and a neutral atom of lithium has 3 electrons.
Lithium is element #3. That, of course, is the atomic number - the number of protons. The atomic mass will of course depend on the specific isotope. The most common isotope is Lithium-7, that is, atomic mass = 7. Lithium-6 also occurs in nature as a stable isotope.
The atomic number of lithium is 3. Therefor there are 3 protons and neutron in the nucleus of lithium. Lithium also has 4 neutrons. atomic # = protons and neutrons neutrons = rounded atomic mass - atomic number Sources- 7th grade Acc. Science
The number of protons.
The number of protons in an atom is the atomic number. It tells you which element the atom is.
There are many different types of elements, all varying in the number of protons they contain. To determine the number of protons in a specific element, refer to the periodic table of elements. The atomic number (generally listed above the element's symbol, sometimes represented as 'Z') is equal to the number of protons in that atom.
gold, as its atomic number is the highest
The number of electrons is equal to the number of protons which determines it's atomic number. Therefore, the element with 3 electrons is the one with 3 protons which has an atomic number of three which is Lithium (symbol - Li, amu - 6.941)
The atomic number is the number of Protons in the nucleus of any particular element. Hydrogen has 1 proton, its atomic number is one; Helium has 2 protons, its atomic number is two; Lithium has 3 protons, its atomic number is three . . . Uranium has Ninety-two protons, its atomic number is 92
It is lithium(Li) . NB Most elements produce isotopes. Hydrogen has 3 isotopes. Carbon has 3 isotopes Chlorine has 2 isotopes. To name but a few.
