The mass number is going to be 54. Mass number is found by adding the number of protons and the number of neutrons. The fact that there are 24 electrons, one for each proton, means the atom is neutral.
Iron-59 has 33 neutrons because its atomic number is 26, which means it has 26 protons. The mass number of iron-59 is 59, which is the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. To find the number of neutrons, you subtract the number of protons from the mass number: 59 (mass number) - 26 (protons) = 33 neutrons.
Mg has 12 protons since it is element number 12 on the periodic table. To calculate the number of neutrons, subtract the atomic number (12 protons) from the atomic mass (26), which gives 14 neutrons in this case.
Iron has 26 electrons; the number of neutrons is different for each isotope (number of neutrons = mass number - 26).
protons 26 electrons 26 neutrons Iron will have 26 electrons 26 protons (they are = because the atom is neutral) and it will have 30 neutrons (because protons + neutrons= your atomic weight) electrons have virtually no mass If the iron atom had a +2 charge there would be two less electrons than protons. 26 protons 24 electrons 30 neutrons.
An atom that has 12 neutrons and 11 protons has a mass number of 12+11 or 23, because mass number is defined as the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons. (The ending "12 neau" of the question has been disregarded, because it was assumed to be an error.)
Number of protons + neutrons = mass number 26 protons + 31 neutrons 57
The mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons in an atom. Since magnesium has 12 protons, a magnesium atom with 14 neutrons would have a mass number of 26 (12 protons + 14 neutrons = 26 mass number).
Iron-59 has 33 neutrons because its atomic number is 26, which means it has 26 protons. The mass number of iron-59 is 59, which is the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. To find the number of neutrons, you subtract the number of protons from the mass number: 59 (mass number) - 26 (protons) = 33 neutrons.
The mass number of an iron is determined by the total number of protons and neutrons. Iron has an atomic number of 26, meaning it has 26 protons. If the iron atom has 29 neutrons, the mass number would be 26 (protons) + 29 (neutrons) = 55.
Manesium 24 has 12 electrons, protons and neutrons.
An unknown element contains 24 protons, 21 electrons,and has mass number 54
Mg has 12 protons since it is element number 12 on the periodic table. To calculate the number of neutrons, subtract the atomic number (12 protons) from the atomic mass (26), which gives 14 neutrons in this case.
Yes, an atom with 26 protons and mass number 52 is possible and corresponds to iron (Fe) because the number of protons determines the element (in this case, iron with 26 protons), and the mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons (26 protons + 26 neutrons = mass number 52). This configuration is stable and matches the properties of iron.
The element symbol "Ti" refers to titanium. Titanium has 22 protons in its nucleus, which determines its atomic number and chemical properties. The number 48 represents the mass number of the most common isotope of titanium found in nature. By subtracting the atomic number (number of protons) from the mass number, you can determine that there are 26 neutrons in this isotope of titanium (48 - 22 = 26).
The mass of an atom is primarily determined by the sum of its protons and neutrons. To find the mass of an atom with 13 protons and 14 neutrons, add the total number of protons and neutrons together: 13 protons + 14 neutrons = 27. The approximate mass of this atom would be 27 atomic mass units (amu).
The number of Neutrons and Protons in the nucleus.So it would be 26 Protons and 30 Neutrons so...26+30=56<so that is the mass number.
26 protons, 26 electrons in iron. Fe-56, the most stable isotope of iron, has 30 neutrons
