Atoms of same chemical element that have different atomic mass are known as?

Isotopes. They differ in the number of neutrons in the nucleus.


How many neutrons are usually found in the nucleus of an atom of silver?

Silver has the atomic number (number of protons) 47; two stable isotopes are 107Ag and 109 Ag. Those would have 107 - 47 = 60, and 109 - 47 = 62 neutrons, respectively. 107Ag is more abundant, but the difference in abundance is not much; natural silver contains about the same amount of both isotopes.Silver has the atomic number (number of protons) 47; two stable isotopes are 107Ag and 109 Ag.

What is the atomic number of Ar?

That depends on the isotope, as Argon has three different stable isotopes and many different radioactive isotopes.

Does the atomic number change in the three isotopes of hydrogen?

No the atomic number is same for the three isotopes of hydrogen (it is 1). The three isotopes of hydrogen differ by the number of neutrons.

How many neutrons does the atom silver have?

== silver-107 and silver-109 have 60 and 62 neutrons, respectively. There are many isotopes of silver having a neutron count from 46 to 83.


What is the mass number of sliver?

Mass number is a property of isotopes, not elements themselves. Naturally occurring silver is a mixture of isotopes with mass numbers 107 and 109, with an average atomic mass of 107.9.


Why is silver radioactive?

Silver itself is not radioactive. However, certain isotopes of silver can be radioactive. For example, silver-108 and silver-110 are radioactive isotopes with long half-lives that can undergo radioactive decay. These isotopes are not commonly found in nature.


Do all atoms of the same element have the same number of isotopes?

This question is misguided. Atoms do not have isotopes. In a sample of an element there are many atoms. They will all have the same number of protons in their nuclei, that's what makes them the same element. Individual atoms may have different numbers of neutrons, if this happens they are called isotopes. For instance in silver, all the atoms have 47 protons, but some of them have 60 neutrons and some have 62. We say that silver has two stable isotopes. Perhaps your question should be 'Do all atoms of the same element have the same number of neutrons?'


How many protons neutrons and electrons in Silver?

47 protons, 47 electrons, and an average of 60.87 neutrons for all of silver's isotopes. Add: There are two naturally occurring silver isotopes, silver-107 and silver-109, which are named for their mass numbers, and which make up virtually 100% of silver atoms. The mass number of an isotope is the sum of protons (atomic number) and neutrons in the atom's nucleus. To find the number of neutrons, subtract the number of protons (atomic number) from the mass number. So a neutral silver-107 atom has 47 protons, 47 electrons, and 60 neutrons (107 - 47). A neutral silver-109 atom has 47 protons, 47 electrons, and 62 neutrons (109 - 47).

How many nutrons does zirconium have?

The number of neutrons for any given element varies, depending on the isotopes. Search the Wikipedia, or Google, for "Isotopes of Zirconium" for the isotopes of this particular element. The list of isotopes will give you the atomic mass (protons + neutrons) for the different isotopes; subtract the atomic number (which is the number of protons) to get the number of neutrons for each isotope.

What is the amount of neutrons in silver?

Since Silver's atomic mass is 108 and it's atomic number is 47, the number of neurons is 108-47=61 neutrons in an atom of silver.
