Lutetium (Lu) has 104 neutrons
To find this number for any element, take the atomic number (lutetium is 71 on the Periodic Table) and the mass number of the element and subtract to find neutrons.
The atomic number represents the number of Protons and electrons in an atom, the mass number can be found by rounding the atomic mass. If you subtract the # of protons from the total it will tell you how many particles , or neutrons, are left in the nucleus of the atom..
The Atomic Mass of Lu is 174.967 amu
Therefore 175 (total particles) -71 (proton particles)= 104 Neutron particles.
The number of neutrons differ for each isotope of a chemical element.
IsotopesThe number of protons in the nucleus of an atom determines the element. The number of neutrons can vary. If two atoms of the same element have a different number of neutrons in their nuclei, they are isotopes of that element.
Radium has 138 neutrons.
Oxygen has an atomic mass of 8 and typically has 8 neutrons.
No. You have to change the number of protrons.(Changing the number of neutrons changes the isotope of the element, but it is still the same element. However, changing the number of neutrons will often result in instability, causing a radioactive decay sequence, which often results in a change in element.)
There are 118 neutrons in the element gold.
there are 61 neutrons in a the element silver

The element comes with 30 neutrons is iron. It also has 26 protons.

Atoms of the same element with varying numbers of neutrons are isotopes.
No, the isotopes of a single element differ in the no. of neutrons
Radium has 138 neutrons.
Hydrogen has 0 neutrons
All neutrons (of all elements) are located in the nucleus (as all ptotons are)
