As you move from top to bottom in a group of the Periodic Table, Atomic Mass generally increases. This increase occurs because each successive element has more protons and neutrons in its nucleus, resulting in a greater overall mass. Additionally, the number of electron shells increases, contributing to the size of the atom but not directly affecting atomic mass. However, there can be exceptions due to isotopes and varying natural abundances.

14 - Subtract atomic mass(usually bottom #) from atomic number(usually top #).


How many neutrons does uranium 239 have?

simple, the bottom number that is missing is the atomic number. Pu is plutonium which happens to have the atomic number of 94. subtract the top number (mass number) and the atomic number and you get the amount of nuetrons, so the answer is 145 neutrons. (its an isotope)
