The atom in question has 13 protons, so is atomic number 13, which is Aluminium. Assuming that all of the atom's mass is formed from the protons and neutrons, and each of these have Atomic Mass 1, the number of neutrons is 27 - 13 = 14 neutrons. Almost all Aluminium is of this isotope.
If the atomic mass of the atom is 48 and it contains 20 protons, then the atom contains 28 neutrons. This can be calculated by subtracting the number of protons from the atomic mass, since the atomic mass includes both protons and neutrons.
The atomic weight minus the number of protons = the atom's neutrons.
The Atomic Number of an element is equal to the number of Protons/Electrons in the nucleus and the Atomic Weight is approximately the total number of Protons/Electrons and Neutrons combined. Using Carbon as an example: Total Protons/Electrons = 6, therefore the Atomic Number is 6 Total Neutrons = 6, and the Atomic Weight is 12 Question? The Atomic Number of Lithium = 3 The Atomic Weight of Lithium = 7 How many Protons/Electrons? How many Neutrons? Answer: Protons/Electrons = 3 Neutrons = 4
An atom contains protons, neutrons, and electrons. The number of protons determines the element and is equal to the atomic number. Neutrons have no charge and contribute to the atomic mass. The number of protons and neutrons together make up the atomic mass of the atom.
As electrons have such a small mass, they are not counted in the atomic mass. Thus the mass of an atom with 19 protons and 20 neutrons is 39.
If the atomic mass of the atom is 48 and it contains 20 protons, then the atom contains 28 neutrons. This can be calculated by subtracting the number of protons from the atomic mass, since the atomic mass includes both protons and neutrons.
The atomic weight minus the number of protons = the atom's neutrons.
Protons and neutrons each have an atomic mass of 1 So, 38-15=23 Neutrons
An oxygen atom has 8 protons and usually 8 neutrons, resulting in an atomic mass of 16.
Atomic mass is protons + neutrons, and the atomic number (4) gives you the number of protons. Thus, this atom would have 5 neutrons.
In an atom of ^11B5, there are 5 protons and 6 neutrons. This is because the atomic number (5) specifies the number of protons, and the atomic mass (11) minus the atomic number gives the number of neutrons.
Protons = 18neutrons = 22 (for the most stable isotope of argon, Ar-40)
84 protons, the same as the atomic number, and (210 - 84) or 126 neutrons. The numbers of protons and neutrons together equals the mass number.
To find the number of neutrons in an atom with an atomic number of 12 (which is the number of protons), you would subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass number. The atomic mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the atom. For an atom with an atomic number of 12, the number of neutrons can be calculated by subtracting 12 from the atomic mass number given for that specific atom.
There are similar number of neutrons and protons. It contains 29 neutrons and protons.
subtract the atomic number by the Atomic Mass, and that is the answer. if its a neutral atom, there are probably the same number neutrons as protons.
uh, for one thing mass and atomic nUmbers. and the other: it has 20 protons and 33 neutrons. The atom would have 20 protons and 33 neutrons. The number of protons is always the same as the atomic number. To find the number of neutrons, you simply subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass. Atomic mass - Atomic number = number of neutrons (53 - 20 = 33) If you add the number of protons and the number of neutrons together, you should get the atomic mass.
