1) it's spelt Calcium and 2) 20 protons, 20 electrons, 20 neutrons
No, the mass number of an element is the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. To determine the number of electrons, you would need to know the atomic number of the element, which is equal to the number of protons. Electrons in a neutral atom equal the number of protons.
Carbon-12 has 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons. The number of protons determines the element (carbon), the number of neutrons plus protons gives the mass number (12), and in a neutral atom, the number of electrons equals the number of protons.
If you know the atomic no. and atomic mass, then the no. of electrons, no. of protons and no. of neutrons can also be determined. Atomic No.=No. of electrons = No. of protons. No. of neutrons=Atomic mass-Atomic no. Also, by no. of electrons you can determine its valency and the no. of valence electrons.
There are 21 electrons and protons in the element Cobalt, and there are 58.933195 neutrons or 36.933195. If your working on a project and your in elementary or middle school you are very smart.Well Done. -Emily (5th Grader)
Five protons makes this the element boron. The number of protons is the atomic number, and determines the identity of an element. This example would be the boron-12 isotope because it contains 5 protons and 7 neutrons.
Boron is an atom or element, and it contains protons, electrons, and neutrons.
Manganese has 25 protons, 25 electrons and 30 neutrons.
Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons
Number of protons = Number of electrons = Atomic number Number of neutrons = Atomic number - Number of protons
Thorium (232Th) has 90 protons, 9o electrons and 142 neutrons.
In a regular sample of the element of gold, meaning no change done to it, then there will be 79 protons and 118 neutrons
An atom contain protons, neutrons and electrons; protons and neutrons contain quarks and gluons.
The element is krypton as it has 36 protons and the isotope is 36Kr86.
The element is Neon and the isotope is 10Ne19
A silicon-28 atom has 14 protons, 14 neutrons, and 14 electrons. The number of protons determines the element (silicon in this case), the sum of protons and neutrons gives the atomic mass of the isotope (28 in this case), and the number of electrons balances the charge to make the atom electrically neutral.
Neutrons. If the differ in electrons they are not neutral and if they differ in protons then they are no longer the same element as the number of protons determines the name of the element.
