Find out how many protons (atomic number) and what the mass number of a particular element is. Then subtract the number of protons from the rounded mass number to get the number of neutrons in a particular atom.
nutrons
The bigger number (Atomic mass) is the amount of protons (=same amount of electrons unless specified) and nutrons in an atom. The smaller number (atomic number) is the amount of protons only
an atom is a nucleus,[ nutrons and protons] and a number of electrons whirring around it. a molecule is a combination of two or more atoms to make something new
Neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom along with protons. They have no electrical charge and help stabilize the nucleus by adding mass without affecting the atom's overall charge.
The number of protons in an atom.
neutron can be calculated by subtracting the atomic number of the particular atom from its mass number.
All you need is the periodic table and a brain. The number of protons is the atomic number(located at the top left hand side of the square for each element) The number of nutrons is the the Atomic Mass minus the Atomic Number.
In an atom, the number of protons is always similar to its atomic number. (The number of nutrons may be similar or different.)
nutrons
a big ball of protons and nutrons
The bigger number (Atomic mass) is the amount of protons (=same amount of electrons unless specified) and nutrons in an atom. The smaller number (atomic number) is the amount of protons only
an atom is a nucleus,[ nutrons and protons] and a number of electrons whirring around it. a molecule is a combination of two or more atoms to make something new
mass number= protons+nutrons
Sum of protons and nutrons
that would be an electron, protrons are positive and nutrons you guessed it neutral
Neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom along with protons. They have no electrical charge and help stabilize the nucleus by adding mass without affecting the atom's overall charge.
you would have to know how many protons, nutrons, and/or electrons are in the element. then you subtract the number from its mass and you get the other number. p=e=am.p+n=m.
