Mass number used to calculate the number of?
the mass number of an atom is used to calculate the number of neutrons and protons in the nucleus of an atom
The mass number is used to calculate the number of?
Protons
In order to calculate the number of neutrons you must subtract the from the?
Number of neutrons = Mass number - atomic number
What does the number 40 in argon-40 represent?
It is the mass number, i.e., the total number of protons and neutrons in argon and is ofter used to calculate the number of neutrons present. As the atomic number (or the number of protons) for argon is 18, there will be 22 neutrons in Argon-40 isotope.
Can the mass number of an element be used to determine the number of electrons in an atom?
No. The mass number can be used, however, to determine the number of neutrons. Electrons can only be determined by knowing the atom's charge.
Mass number used to calculate the number of?
the mass number of an atom is used to calculate the number of neutrons and protons in the nucleus of an atom
The mass number is used to calculate the number of?
Protons
What equation is used to calculate neutrons for an element?
Number of neutrons = Atomic mass - Atomic number
How do you calculate the mass number?
mass number= protons+nutrons
Calculate Mass of cell?
To calculate the mass of the cell you will need to know the mass and atomic number of the element. Multiply the number of atoms by the amount of grams per mole to get the mass.
How do you calculate the atomic mass number?
the atomic mass number is the number of protons/electrons in an atom
How do you calculate the atomic mass?
the Atomic Mass number is the number of protons/electrons in an atom
How you calculate the atomic mass?
the Atomic Mass number is the number of protons/electrons in an atom
What is the mass number and how do you calculate it?
grams and to calculate use a pan balance
What unit is used to calculate mass?
Kilograms (kg) is used to measure mass
How do you calculate avogadro's number?
1 / mass of a proton = avogadro's number 1 / mass of a proton = avogadro's number
Can you use the atomic number and atomic mass to calculate the number of each subatomic particle?
atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons atomic mass = mass of protons + mass of neutrons
