How many protons does the nucleus of a silicon atom contain?
The nucleus of a silicon atom contains 14 protons.
When the nucleus of a nitrogen atom absorbs a proton the resulting element is?
Oxygen, the element with an atomic number higher by one than that of nitrogen.
6 The atomic number of oxygen is 8 because oxygen has?
The atomic number of oxygen is 8 because oxygen has 8 protons in its nucleus.The atomic number of a chemical element (also known as its proton number) is always the number of protons found in the nucleus of an atom of that element, and identical to the charge number of the nucleus. It is conventionally represented by the symbol Z.The Atomic Number is a count of how many Protons are present in an atom of an element.The element Oxygen has 8 Protons in its atomic nucleus and therefore has an Atomic Number of 8.Note: in an electrically neutral atom the number of electrons in the electron cloud exactly matches the number of Protons in the nucleus of the atom, therefore electrically neutral oxygen will also have 8 electrons.
The atomic number of oxygen is 8 therefore oxygen atoms always contain 8 neutrons?
No. In chemistry and physics, the atomic number (also known as the proton number) is the number of protons found in the nucleus of an atom. As electrical charge is always balanced it is also the number of electrons to be found in the electron shells surrounding the atomic nucleus. Neutrons are electrically neutral (they pad out and stabilize the atomic nucleus) and their number in an atomic nucleus can vary, giving rise to the various isotopes of the element. In the case of Oxygen, the main isotopes are: 16O with 8 neutrons 17O with 9 neutrons 18O with 10 neutrons
What is the difference between an oxygen 16 atom and an oxygen 18 atom?
The main difference between an oxygen-16 atom and an oxygen-18 atom is their atomic mass. Oxygen-16 has 8 protons, 8 neutrons, and 8 electrons, while oxygen-18 has 8 protons, 10 neutrons, and 8 electrons. This difference in neutron number gives them different atomic masses and slightly different chemical behaviors.
Which particle in atom dose not contain oxygen?
An atomic nucleus contain protons, neutrons and electrons - not oxygen.
What does the nuclease of an atom not contain?
the nucleus does not contain electrons of the atom.
What does nucleus of an atom have?
The nucleus of an atom contain protons and neutrons; protons and neutrons contain quarks and gluons.
How the nucleus of an oxygen-18 atom is different from the nucleus of an oxygen-16 atom?
2 extra neutrons
The nucleus of atom is?
The atomic nucleus contain protons and neutrons; a nucleus is in the center of the atom and is electrically positive
What does the nucleus of an atom do not contain?
Nuts
What type of atoms are found in the nucleus of an atom?
The nucleus of an atom CANNOT itself contain atoms.
Does the nucleus of an atom contain particles?
The nucleus has protons and neutrons. Electrons can be found in the shells of an atom.
How many elements of oxygen does a proton have?
Hmm, oxygen is an element and elements can be divided smallest to an atom. Protons are subatomic particles that are in the nucleus of an atom. So the answer to this question is 0. 0 elements of oxygen is within a proton.
What does an atom's nucleus contain?
protons and neutrons
What does both an atom and a nucleus contain?
An Atom's nucleus contains protons and neutrons. Surrounding them is the electron cloud.
How are electrons in an Oxygen atom arranged?
In an Oxygen Atom there are two rings on which the Electrons orbit around the Nucleus, there is the inner ring and the outer ring. The inner ring closest to the Nucleus contains two Electrons and on the outer ring there are six Electrons making a total of eight Electrons, which is equal to the amount of Neutrons and Protons in the Nucleus (8 Neutrons, 8 Protons). This should answer the Question.
