What element has the atomic number for 3.14?

No element has this atomic number. All atomic numbers are whole numbers.


Who is credited with developing the concept of atomic numbers?

On observing the X-Ray spectrum with increasing atomic numbers Henry Gwyn-Jefferies Moseley developed the concept of atomic numbers. By testing Bohr's and Broek's hypothesis he was able to arrive at the conclusion.


What is thew atomic number for granite?

Granite is a type of rock made up of various minerals, so it does not have an atomic number. Atomic numbers are assigned to individual elements on the periodic table based on the number of protons in their nucleus.


How are the atomic numbers and the atomic masses of the elements related to how the elements are arranged on peridoic table?

Elements are arranged in a periodic table by atomic number, lower on top and left. Atomic masses have no direct relationship to the arrangement of atoms, although generally atoms with higher atomic numbers will have higher atomic masses. (There are at least three exceptions for atoms with atomic numbers differing by 1.)


How do atomic numbers and atomic masses increase in the periodic table?

Atomic numbers increase from left to right across a period on the periodic table. This is because each element in a period has one more proton in its nucleus compared to the element before it. Atomic masses generally increase from left to right as well, but there may be deviations due to isotopes or other factors. Within a group or column, atomic numbers and atomic masses increase from top to bottom as each successive element has more electrons and neutrons than the one above it.

Why do elements of even atomic numbers are more abundant than that of odd numbers?

Elements with even atomic numbers are more abundant than those with odd atomic numbers because of nuclear stability. Elements with even atomic numbers have equal numbers of protons and neutrons, resulting in more stable nuclei due to pairing effects. This stability makes it easier for elements with even atomic numbers to be formed through various nuclear processes, leading to their higher abundance compared to elements with odd atomic numbers.


What are the atomic numbers of boron?

The atomic number of boron is 5.


Can you have a fractional atomic number?

No, fractional atomic numbers do not exist in the context of the periodic table. Atomic numbers represent the number of protons in an atom's nucleus, and since protons are whole particles, atomic numbers must be whole numbers. However, in certain advanced theoretical contexts, such as in particle physics or discussions about isotopes, concepts may arise that involve fractional charges or effective numbers, but these do not change the fundamental nature of atomic numbers as integers.
