How do you tell how many neutrons are in an atom with the atomic number of 12?

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.


Does an atom of aluminum and an atom of gallium have the same atomic mass?

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.


If an atom has an atomic number of 8 and a mass of 18 how many protrons are in the atom?

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.


How do you determine the atom the atomic mass of an atom?

Proton + Nuetron = Atomic Mass


What is the atomic mass of an atom?

The atomic mass of an atom is the combined mass of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus.


How many protons does an atom with an atomic number of 34 and a mass number of 79 have?

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.


What is the number of neutrons in an atom affects the atomic what?

The number of neutrons in an atom can affect the atomic mass of an atom.


The mass of an atom usually expressed in atomic mass units is its?

Atomic mass


The relative atomic mass of an atom can be found by comparing the mass of the atom to the mass of?

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.


What does atomic mass represent of an element represent?

Atomic Mass represents the mass of atom. We use mass of protons and neutrons.


What is the atomic mass of an oxygen atom?
