An equal number of protons and neutrons typically results in an atom that is?
Often, but not always, atoms with an equal number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus are stable and not radioactive.
Is the number of protons equal to the atomic mass minus the atomic number?
No, the number of protons is equal to the atomic number, which is also the same as the number of electrons in a neutral atom. The atomic mass, on the other hand, is the sum of the protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus.
What are the subatomic particles of astatine?
As for all other elements: neutrons, protons and electrons.
How many protons in thorium-232?
Thorium has an atomic number of 90, or in other words, 90 protons in its nucleus. The mass number or the identification of the -232 isotope with its 142 neutrons is a red herring - in isotopy the number of neutrons may vary but the atomic number or the count of protons is the same. If the atomic number varied from 90 it would by definition no longer be thorium.
What is the mass number minus the atomic number called?
Nucleon Number (total number of protons and neutrons)
How are protons and neutrons different from and similar from each other?
Protons are positively charged Neutrons are negatively charged The number of protons is the atomic number Protons+Neutrons=Atomic weight
What atom has the same number of protons and a different number of neutrons from other atoms of the same element?
Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but differing numbers of neutrons in the nucleus.
Where are the protonselectronsand neutrons in the atom?
Protons have a positive charge Neutrons have no charge Electrons have a negative charge Protons and Neutrons are found in the nuclei of atoms, while Electrons orbit in layers. Neutrons separate the Protons so that they never touch each other. The number of Protons defines which element you have The number of neutrons defines the isotope you have The number of Electrons defines the charged ion you have
What is the number of protons electrons and neutrons in n-14?
Nitrogen-14: 7 Protons, 7 Electrons, 7 Neutrons To work this out in the future for other elements: Protons = Atomic Number Electrons = Atomic Number Neutrons = Atomic Mass - Atomic Number Hope this helps!
How many protons electron and neutrons are in nitrogen?
A neutral nitrogen atom has 7 protons, 7 neutrons, and 7 electrons. If it is electrically charged, the number of electrons will be different. If it is an isotope of nitrogen other than the most common (N-14), the number of neutrons will be different. Protons = Atomic Number Neutrons = Atomic Mass - Protons Electrons = Protons Atomic number is the amount of protons in element.
If an atom has an atomic namber of 20 and a mass namber of 53 how many protons and neutrons does that atom have?
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.
An equal number of protons and neutrons typically results in an atom that is?
Often, but not always, atoms with an equal number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus are stable and not radioactive.
How many protons and electrons in uranium 235?
Uranium-235 has 92 protons and 92 electrons. This is because the number of protons in an atom is equal to its atomic number, which is 92 for uranium. The number of electrons is also equal to the number of protons in a neutral atom.
Is the number of protons equal to the atomic mass minus the atomic number?
No, the number of protons is equal to the atomic number, which is also the same as the number of electrons in a neutral atom. The atomic mass, on the other hand, is the sum of the protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus.
An atom of an element has 54 protons some of the elements atoms have 77 neutrons while other atoms have 79 neutrons what are the atomic numbers and mass numbers of the two types of atoms of this el?
The atomic number for an element with 54 protons is 54. For the atoms with 77 neutrons, the mass number would be 54 (protons) + 77 (neutrons) = 131. For the atoms with 79 neutrons, the mass number would be 54 (protons) + 79 (neutrons) = 133.
What does the atomic mass tell you?
It tells you the average amount of protons and neutrons within the nucleus of an atom. In other words, atomic mass - atomic number (protons)= the number of neutrons within the nucleus.
Do isotopes of carbon have the same number of neutrons and different numbers of protons?
No, it is just the other way around!All isotopes of one particular element have the same number of protons (specific for that element) but are differing in neutron number.Example:Uranium has 92 protons (same as atomic number),butisotope U(235) has 143 neutrons and 92 protons (143+92=235)andisotope U(238) has 146 neutrons and 92 protons (146+92=238).
