The mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus. If you think to a name as uranium-238 the meaning is that the nucleus has 238 p+n.
Adding the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom gives the mass number of the isotope.
the mass of an atom of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units. It is approximately equivalent to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom (the mass number) or to the average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.
The mass of an atom is obtained dividing the atomic weight of an isotope by the Avogadro number.
Every sodium atom has 11 protons, the atomic number of sodium. The isotope with mass number 23 has (23 - 11) or 12 neutrons, because the mass number of an isotope is defined as the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons in the isotope.
The atomic mass number of that isotope. So C14 has a molecular mass of 14 grams/mole U238, 238 grams/mole
Atomic Mass (of an isotope) - number of protons (of an isotope) = number of neutrons (of an isotope)
It is the mass number for that particular form of the atom - that particular isotope. An element can exist as more than one isotope and the atom's mass number is the (weighted) average of the mass numbers of all its isotopes.
Adding the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom gives the mass number of the isotope.
the mass of an atom of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units. It is approximately equivalent to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom (the mass number) or to the average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.
Atom number 7 is Nitrogen, 157N , isotope 15 with mass number 15 The answer is N(15) isotope
The mass of an atom is obtained dividing the atomic weight of an isotope by the Avogadro number.
The mass number is the total weight of neutrons and protons in the nucleus of an atom.
The mass number is the total weight of neutrons and protons in the nucleus of an atom.
The Atomic Mass is, basically, the sum of the protons (the "atomic number"), and the number of neutrons.
Every sodium atom has 11 protons, the atomic number of sodium. The isotope with mass number 23 has (23 - 11) or 12 neutrons, because the mass number of an isotope is defined as the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons in the isotope.
For each isotope the number of neutrons is different. Number of neutrons = Mass number of an Tc isotope - 43
Each isotope has another number of neutrons.Number of neutrons = Mass number of an isotope – 78
