protons and neutrons
No, an atom of aluminum and an atom of gallium do not have the same atomic mass. Aluminum has an atomic mass of approximately 26.98 atomic mass units, while gallium has an atomic mass of approximately 69.72 atomic mass units.
Atomic mass
The Hydrogen atom. Beware, Hydrogen has an atomic mass based on one proton, as it doesn't have a neutron. So Helium has a mass of four times Hydrogen.
Atomic Mass represents the mass of atom. We use mass of protons and neutrons.
The atomic mass of an oxygen atom depends on which isotope of oxygen you are referring to. The AVERAGE atomic mass is approximately 15.9994
To find the number of neutrons in an atom with an atomic number of 12 (which is the number of protons), you would subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass number. The atomic mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the atom. For an atom with an atomic number of 12, the number of neutrons can be calculated by subtracting 12 from the atomic mass number given for that specific atom.
No, an atom of aluminum and an atom of gallium do not have the same atomic mass. Aluminum has an atomic mass of approximately 26.98 atomic mass units, while gallium has an atomic mass of approximately 69.72 atomic mass units.
It has 8 protons. The atomic number of an atom = the number of protons. The mass number is not needed in this problem. The mass number is the number of protons + number of neutrons.
Proton + Nuetron = Atomic Mass
The atomic mass of an atom is the combined mass of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
The number of protons in an atom of any atomic number is the same as the atomic number, because that is the definition of atomic number. Therefore, in the given question, the answer is 34; the mass number is not needed to answer.
The number of neutrons in an atom can affect the atomic mass of an atom.

The atomic mass of an atom is the mass of 6.011 X 10^23 atoms of that element.
