When an atom emits a 1 beta particle what can be said about is mass number and atomic number?

Emiting a beta particle is the result of a neutron changing into a proton so the atomic number increases by 1 and the mass number stays the same


What is the general trend that you observe from a graph that plots atomic number vs atomic mass?

The general trend observed is that as atomic number increases, atomic mass also increases. This relationship is due to the fact that atomic number corresponds to the number of protons in an atom's nucleus, which in turn contributes to its mass.


What happens to the atomic mass number as you move across the periodic table?

The atomic mass number generally increases as you move across the periodic table from left to right. This is because the number of protons in the nucleus increases as you move to elements with higher atomic numbers.


When the elements on the periodic table are arranged by increasung atomic number the atomic mass generally increases as the atomic number increases. for some elements however the atomic mass of the el?

It is difficult to be sure what the question is about because it has been truncated.However, it is true that the atomic mass (or standard atomic weights) increases with atomin number. There are, of course, isotopes of elements with a low atomic number which are heavier than atoms of higher atomic number. But there are some examples where the average mass is not in the expected sequence.


What is the new element formed after the alpha decay occurred?

AlphaThe atomic number goes down by two and the atomic mass number goes down by four.Beta-The atomic number goes up by one and the atomic mass number stays the same.Beta+The atomic number goes down by one and the atomic mass number stays the same.

Towards the bottom of the periodic table does the atomic mass increase or decrease?

Towards the bottom, atomic mass increases. Atomic number also increases.


What increases on a atom when neutrons do not add to the charge of an atom when its neutral?

When neutrons do not add to the charge of an atom, the number of protons remains the same, so the atomic number stays constant. However, the mass number of the atom increases because neutrons contribute to the mass of an atom without affecting its charge.

What is the atomic mass number of an isotope?

it depends because isotopes have different nucleon numbers but their atomic number stays the same.


Atomic mass is an atoms number of what?

What trends do you notice about the atomic number and atomic mass as you move left to right across the periodic table?

The atomic number increases from left to right. The atomic number also increases.However, there are few exceptions for atomic mass.
