you take the Atomic Mass of an atom say, 16 for oxygen, and subtract the atomic number, 8 for oxygen. 16-8= 8. so there are eight neutrons in the typical oxygen atom.
The sum of protons and neutrons is the atomic mass.
The order of the periodic table is made according to the atomic weights of the elements. The number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus make the atomic weight. Protons make the elements in order of the periodic table.
If your talking about the atomic mass number it is because the amount of neutrons can very. If you are talking about the actual amount of total elements on the periodic table it is because we keep discovering new things.
After taking out my periodic table of elements, the closest i could find would be Californium, with 153 neutrons, Berkelium, with 152 neutrons, and finally Curium with 151 neutrons. This can be found by taking the atomic number of an element (which is the number of protons it has) and subtracting it from the elements atomic mass (which is the number of protons and neutrons added together). No element has a perfect 150 neutron number, but in its most stable isotope form Curium appears to be the closest.
It is named The PERIODIC TABLE. The periods being the horizontal rows The groups being the vertical columns.
The sum of protons and neutrons is the atomic mass.
Neutrons are not given directly on the periodic table. However the number of neutrons can be indirectly calculated. Mass number = Number of protons + number of neutrons
Neutrons are sub-atomic particles. The Periodic Table is an arrangement of the elements (atoms) made from these subatomic particles. Thus Neutrons by themselves have no place in the Periodic Table. However as all elements/atoms (except Hydrogen) contain some Neutrons, it is possible to find out how many using the information presented on the Periodic Table. The number of Neutrons present in an element/atom can be determined by subtracting the atomic number of an element/atom from its atomic mass.
Because it is elemental. That is: it is not an alloy. It has a unique number of protons and neutrons.
The number of protons in an atom is its atomic number, which you can find on the periodic table. To calculate the number of neutrons, subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass listed on the periodic table.
The Periodic Table of the Elements includes most of this information (but not the number of neutrons). The Chart of the Nuclides (or Table of the Isotopes) includes all of the information.
Elements are arranged on the periodic table based on their atomic number, which is the number of protons in their nucleus. This arrangement groups elements with similar properties in columns called groups or families, while elements in the same period have the same number of electron shells.
The order of the periodic table is made according to the atomic weights of the elements. The number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus make the atomic weight. Protons make the elements in order of the periodic table.
If your talking about the atomic mass number it is because the amount of neutrons can very. If you are talking about the actual amount of total elements on the periodic table it is because we keep discovering new things.
The mass number is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons in the atomic nucleus.
No. Atoms differ in number of protons, neutrons and electrons.
No one give number to elements in periodic table. they have been calculated
