Neutrons can be removed or added to change the atomic mass of an atom; a atom with the same amount of protons but different amounts of neutrons are called isotopes.
(Taking or removing protons would change the type of atom and electrons do not have sufficient mass to change the atomic mass.)
What else can I help you with?
Atomic mass of an element?
The atomic mass of an element is the relative mass of its atom as compared with the mass of a carbon-12 atom taken as 12 units.
What two particles of the atom are added together to get the atomic mass?
4
Experimens have shown that most of the volume of an atomic is taken up by?
The electrons in the atom.
Do the atomic number for an ion differ from its neutral atom?
no. atomic number will be same as the number of protons will not change for an ion and its neutral atom, but the number of electrons will vary.
What particle contributes to the atomic number?
Number of protons are taken. They are arranged by number of protons. Mendeleev arranged elements first according to atomic number
How does a neutral atom change when its number of protons electrons or nuetrons change?
The element becomes a new element becuase the atomic number would change. For example if you added a proton to Hydrogen-atomic number 1, it would become helium-atomic number 2
The mass of all particles of an atom added together is its what?
The sum of protons and neutrons in an atom is called mass number.
Atomic mass of an element?
The atomic mass of an element is the relative mass of its atom as compared with the mass of a carbon-12 atom taken as 12 units.
What two particles of the atom are added together to get the atomic mass?
4
Does the atomic number of the electron when the atom get converted into catayon and anayon?
The atomic number of an atom does not change if the atom is converted into an anion or cation. The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, and this is not affected by the transfer of electrons that produces ionization of an atom.
What is the change in the atomic number when an atom emits gamma radiation?
The atomic number does not change when gamma radiation is emitted.
What are the atomic numbers and atomic mass?
Atomic Number :- atomic number of an element is the number of protons present in the nucleus of the atom. (since atoms are electrically neutral the number of protons in an atom is equal to the number of electrons in an atom) Atomic Mass :- atomic mass of an element is the number which tells us how many times an atom of that element is heavier than an atom of hydrogen (whose atomic weight is taken as unity [1])
Experimens have shown that most of the volume of an atomic is taken up by?
The electrons in the atom.
Does the atomic number changes when an ion is formed?
No, the atomic number remains the same when an ion is formed. The atomic number is determined by the number of protons in an atom, which does not change when an atom becomes an ion by gaining or losing electrons.
What would be formed if one proton is added to this atom?
The atomic number increase with 1.
Is the atomic mass of an element equaled to the mass of an average atom?
The atomic weight is taken as the average weight or mass of the different isotopes of the Same atom That exists in the different %age in our enviromenT
What indicates the number of an electron in a neutral atom?
The number of an electron in a neutral atom is indicated by the atomic number, which is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is the same as the number of protons.
