Subtract the atomic number from the mass number
The number of neutrons in any element is equal to mass number - atomic number. So,number of neutrons in cobalt is = 58 - 27 = 32. therefore, number of neutrons in cobalt is 32.
For each isotope the number of neutrons is different.Number of neutrons = Mass number of an isotope - 98
Carbon has 6 protons an 6 electrons (in a neutral state). The number of neutrons is: - for 12C: 6 neutrons - for 13C: 7 neutrons - for 14C: 8 neutrons For artificila isotopes: number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number
The mass number of an isotope is the number of neutrons and protons in the isotope, let this be p +n = (mass number). To find the number of neutrons you need the atomic number (number of protons), let this be p. You then subtract the two: mass number - atomic number = no. of neutrons p + n - p = no. of neutrons = n
Atomic number = number of protons + number of neutrons Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons
The isotope of zirconim, 91Zr, has 51 neutrons. In order to solve this problem, one must know that an element's atomic weight is the average of its number of protons and neutrons (only neutrons are variable). Since the atomic number is the number of protons, the atomic number subtracted from the atomic weight gives the number of neutrons. An element in period 5 that has this many neutrons is found to be zirconium (the isotope 91Zr).
Number of Neutrons = Mass number - Number of Protons
To find the number of neutrons in an element, subtract the atomic number (number of protons) from the mass number (sum of protons and neutrons). Neutrons do not carry a charge and help stabilize the nucleus of an atom.
The number of neutrons in any element is equal to mass number - atomic number. So,number of neutrons in cobalt is = 58 - 27 = 32. therefore, number of neutrons in cobalt is 32.
For each isotope the number of neutrons is different.Number of neutrons = Mass number of an isotope - 98
The number of neutrons is different for each isotope:Number of neutrons = Mass number of an isotope - 98
Neutrons are not given directly on the periodic table. However the number of neutrons can be indirectly calculated. Mass number = Number of protons + number of neutrons
Mass number-Atomic Number= Number of neutrons
the number of neutrons is mass

For each isotope the number of neutrons is different. Number of neutrons = Mass number of an isotope – atomic number
