The number of electrons in any neutral atom is always the same as the atomic number of the atom, 16 in this instance.
No, they have the same atomic mass, which is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons. No two elements have the same atomic number.
Well, if an atom has 16 protons, then it is Sulfur, which is a non metal. If it had 16 neutrons, then it would be another isotope of sulfur, which would make it Sulfur-32. Then, unless it has a charge, there would also be 16 electrons.
In the context of the isotope of sulfur, the number 35 signifies the atomic mass of that particular isotope. Specifically, sulfur-35 (written as (^{35}\text{S})) has 16 protons and 19 neutrons, resulting in a total atomic mass of 35. This number helps differentiate it from other isotopes of sulfur, such as sulfur-32 and sulfur-34, which have different numbers of neutrons.
34 - 16, the atomic number of sulfur [note correct spelling] or 18.
The number of protons is the atomic mass minus the number of neutrons; in this instance 32 - 17 or 15. An atomic number of 15 corresponds to the element phosphorus; therefore, the isotope is P-32.
The number of neutrons in an atom depends on the isotope. The most common sulfur isotope has 16. The average number of neutrons in an atom of sulfur is about 32.065.
19, because since you know sulfur has 16 protons because that's its atomic number. you do 35-16=19
19 neutrons 16 protons and electrons
Sulfur has atomic number 16 and atomic mass 32.
The number 33 in "3316S" represents the atomic number of sulfur, which is the number of protons in its nucleus. To find the number of neutrons, subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass. In this case, the atomic mass is 16, so there are 16 - 33 = 16 neutrons in the nucleus.
Mass number of S = 32.1 Atomic number of S = 16 The most common isotope of sulfur is 32S (95.02%). Therefore there are 32 - 16 = 16 neutrons per atom of sulfur-32.
The number of protons and neutrons is 16 protons and 16 neutrons.
Sulfur is a non metal element. Mass number of it is 32.
There are 16 protons, 16 neutrons and 16 electrons in a Sulfur atom. *note it's atomic number- this is the number of protons in an atom of an element. There must be the same number of electrons to balance the charge. The atomic weight minus the number of protons gives you the number of neutrons
Sulfur has 16 protons, 16 electrons and 16, 17, 18 or 20 neutrons ( the number of neutrons is different for each isotope).
Because that is the number of neutrons one atom of sulfur contains.
The number of electrons and protons in a neutral sulfur atom is the same as the atomic number of sulfur, which is 16. However, the number of neutrons can vary: Four isotopes of sulfur occur naturally, with 16, 17, 18, and 20 neutrons. Some 95 % of the atoms in a typical sample have 16 neutrons per atom.
