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.
Chlorine naturally occurs with mixed isotopes, and the number is an average of the atomic mass of those isotopes, in the proportion they are present. The isotopes have the same atomic number (protons), but their mass number can be different due to the presence of a different number of neutrons. These atoms of an element having a different number of neutrons are called isotopes.
this is because the atomic number is the number of protons in an atom, and this never changes. However, the recorded atomic mass is a weighted average of all of the isotopes of the atom, because atomic mass is the number protons plus the number of neutrons, and the number of neutrons in an atom differs, causing different atomic masses.
Sometimes the atomic mass is listed as the average mass of the isotopes and contains a decimal. But since you can't have a fractional part of a proton or a neutron without creating a big mess, it is necessary to round to the nearest whole number. Subtracting the atomic number from the rounded atomic mass will give you the number of neutrons.
The atomic number of fluorine is 9.The atomic number of sodium is 11.
Atomic number= number of protons. Hydrogen atomic number=1
The top left number is the mass (neutrons&protons) and the bottom left number is the atomic number(protons)

These atoms of an element having a different number of neutrons are called isotopes.
The atomic mass of an isotope of an element is the mass of the nucleons (neutrons + protons) in an atom of that isotope. This is nearly, though not exactly, equal to the number of nucleons, and so is nearly a whole number.The main cause for the atomic mass being fractional is that most elements have numerous isotopes, each with a different number of neutrons and so a different atomic mass. The atomic mass for an element is the average of the atomic masses of all its isotopes, weighted together in the proportion of the isotopes' abundance on earth. It is this weighting together that results in the numbers being fractional.
An integer.
Yes, I can verify the accuracy of the fractional number generator.
No. chlorine has an atomic weight 0f 35.45. and has an atomic number (number of pprotons) of 17. It has two naturally occuring isotopes chlorine-35 and chlorine -37. It is the presence of these that causes the fractional atomic weight
all of the above

What is the fractional routing number for southern Texas bank of America and how do you get that number
Nitrogen is an atomic element and does not have any 'neurons' because neurons are nerve cells.I think you meant 'neutrons' :-Nitrogen has an atomic mass of 14.00674 and an atomic number of 7. As the majority of mass in an atom is in the nucleus and as the atomic number represents the number of protons in the nucleus, the number of neutrons ROUGHLY = the atomic mass minus the atomic number. In other words Nitrogen would have 7 neutrons in its nucleus.The fractional part of the atomic mass is because there are isotopes of nitrogen some with more or less neutrons than 7. In fact there are two stable isotopes of nitrogen: 14N and 15N the most common is 14N (99.634%).
A whole number with a fractional part attached is called a mixed number. Hope this helps!
It is a number whose magnitude is less than one.
