How do the atoms of one element differ from those of another element?
Atoms of the same element differ in the number of neutrons in their nuclei. All atoms of a given element have the same number of protons, of course. The number of protons in a nucleus determines which element the atom is. But the number of neutrons can vary, and these different "versions" of a given element are called isotopes of that element. See the related question, which is linked below.
Is the atomic number of an atom equal to the number of protons or neutrons or electrons in the nucleus?
No, atomic number equals the number of protons.The number of neutrons is NOT specific to an element, and various atoms of the same element can have different numbers of neutrons - these are called isotopes.
What information could you use to determine the atomic number of an unknown element that has a mass number of 22?
the only element with a mass number of 22 is sodium (Na) which has an atomic number of 11. This is because the atomic number only represents the number of protons in the nucleus, while the mass number represents the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
How many subatomic particles does element calcium has?
All elements have three subatomic particles: Protons: positive forces, centered in the nucleus of the atom with neutrons Neutrons: neutral forces, centered in the nucleus of the atom with protons Electrons: negative forces, centered in different energy levels outside the nucleus of the atom Between all these particles, there is only empty space; nothing.
What is in hydrogen nucleus?
In a Hydrogen nucleus there is a proton. Hydrogen is the only element to not have a neutron in it's nucleus.
What have one proton and no neutrons in its nucleus?
The only element that has one proton and no neutrons is a hydrogen atom.
What configuration defines an isotope of the same element?
Isotopes of one particular element differ only in their number of neutrons in nucleus.
Isotopes of any element have a different number of?
isotopes have varying amounts of electrons ^ The above is wrong. Isotopes of an element vary in the amounts of neutrons within the nucleus only.
What element has A neutrons in its nucleus?
Only hydrogen has un-isotopic atoms without a neutron. Hydrogen can sometimes though have one or so neutrons in its isotopes. The other elements must have neutrons to keep the protons from repelling each other in the atom's nucleus.
Is the atomic weight of an element is equal to the number of protons minus the number of neutrons?
Atomic weight of an element is the number of protons plus neutrons in the nucleus, atomic number is the number of protons only.
What is the only element that has no neutrons inside the atom?
There is no ELEMENT which contains no neutrons HOWEVER there is an isotope of hydrogen called protium which is a single proton surrounded by a single electron.
Why is hydrogen the 1st element?
It has the lowest atomic number (one) as its nucleus contains only one proton (and (usually) no neutrons).
What is the number of a protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom?
It all depends on which element you are speaking about. Some only have one and some have many.
What element has atoms which do not have nuetrons?
The most abundent isotope of Hydrogen has only a proton for a nucleus with a single electron orbiting it. However some isotopes of Hydrogen do have neutrons in the nucleus.
Atoms of the same elements that differ only in the number of neutrons are known as?
Atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons are called isotopes. An isotope is known by its mass number, which is the sum of the protons and neutrons in its nucleus.
Which particle or particles make up the nucleus?
Every nucleus (except for Hydrogen) consists of protons and neutrons. The hydrogen nucleus is only a proton.
Can atoms of two different elements have the same number of neutrons?
Number of protons in in an element denote the type of element. So you identify element on the number of protons in it. Protons being positively charged can not sit together in a nucleus. They will repel each other. So you do not have an element in which only 2 or more protons and no neutrons are there.It means neutrons act as binding material in an element. So usually equal or more neutrons are there in an element. If same number of neutrons are there in nucleus but different number of protons, then it is no more a same but different element. An element in which different number of neutrons are there are called as Isotope. All element have got one or more Isotopes. So there 'physical' properties would differ but not 'chemical' property.
