The mass number of an isotope is the sum of its protons and neutrons. For oxygen, which has 8 protons, an isotope with nine neutrons would have a mass number of 8 (protons) + 9 (neutrons) = 17. Therefore, the mass number of this oxygen isotope is 17. This isotope is known as oxygen-17.
The mass number of an isotope is the sum of its protons and neutrons. Oxygen has an atomic number of 8, meaning it has 8 protons. If the isotope has 9 neutrons, the mass number would be 8 protons + 9 neutrons = 17. Therefore, the mass number of this oxygen isotope is 17.
Yes, 18O is an isotope of oxygen. It has a different number of neutrons compared to the more common isotope of oxygen (16O), which affects its atomic mass.
Oxygen has 8 electrons and protons. The number of neutrons is different for each isotope: Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of the isotope - Number of protons
For each isotope the number of neutrons is different.Number of neutrons = Mass number of an isotope - 98
Depending on the isotope. Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of the isotope - 84
The mass number of an isotope is the sum of its protons and neutrons. Oxygen has an atomic number of 8, meaning it has 8 protons. If the isotope has 9 neutrons, the mass number would be 8 protons + 9 neutrons = 17. Therefore, the mass number of this oxygen isotope is 17.
Yes, 18O is an isotope of oxygen. It has a different number of neutrons compared to the more common isotope of oxygen (16O), which affects its atomic mass.
Oxygen has 8 electrons and protons; the number of neutrons is specific for each isotope. Number of neutrons in an oxygen isotope = Mass number - 8
Oxygen has 8 protons . The number of neutrons depends on the isotope. Oxygen-15 isotope has 7 neutrons and oxygen-16 isotope has 8 neutrons. (Note: Mass number = Number of protons + number of neutrons)
oxygen has 8 protons as its atomic number is 8. The number of neutrons depends on the isotope. O-15 isotope will have 7 neutrons, O-16 isotope will have 8 neutrons. (Note: Mass number = Number of protons + number of neutrons)
An oxygen atom with 10 neutrons would have a mass number of 17 (8 protons + 10 neutrons) and isotope oxygen-17. This isotope is a rare form of oxygen and differs from the more common oxygen-16 isotope in having two extra neutrons.
Oxygen has 8 electrons and protons. The number of neutrons is different for each isotope: Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of the isotope - Number of protons
The atomic mass number of oxygen is 16.0. --------- The mass number is the sum of neutrons and protons in the atomic nucleus and is different for each isotope of any element. For example the isotope oxygen-16 has the mass number 16. After IUPAC Tables from 2009 the atomic weight of oxygen is [15,99903; 15,99977]. The conventional (abridged) atomic weight is 15.999 amu.
The mass number is the sum of neutrons and protons in the atomic nucleus and is different for each isotope of any element.For example the isotope oxygen-16 has the mass number 16.The mass number is not the atomic mass !!
For each isotope the number of neutrons is different.Number of neutrons = Mass number of an isotope - 98
The mass number is the sum of neutrons and protons in the atomic nucleus and is different for each isotope of any element. For example the isotope oxygen-16 has the mass number 16.
The atomic number of an isotope is the number of protons it contains, whereas the mass number is the total mass of the nucleus, which is the combined number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. To find the number of neutrons, you must therefore subtract the atomic number of the isotope from the mass number of the isotope.In the above example, the atomic number is 8 and the mass number is 18. This isotope is known as O18. The number of neutrons in the isotope is: Mass number - Atomic number = Number of neutrons18 - 8 = 10
