What is used to find the mass of an atom?
The mass of an atom is obtained dividing the atomic weight of an isotope by the Avogadro number.
Adding the number of protons and the number of neutrons found in the nucleus of an atom yields the for isotope?
Adding the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom gives the mass number of the isotope.
What is the mass number of an isotope o this atom that has has 2neutrons?
The mass number of an isotope is the sum of its protons and neutrons. If the atom has 2 neutrons, you would need to know the number of protons (which defines the element) to calculate the mass number. For example, if the atom has 6 protons (like carbon), the mass number would be 6 protons + 2 neutrons = 8. Therefore, the mass number of this isotope would be 8.
How is an isotope different from its original atom?
When an atom is of the same atomic number, atomic mass, etc. to the one on the periodic table (Lets use Boron for example) Then B is the regular atom. But if you change the number of neutrons (from 6-to-7 or whatever number) ; because the number of protons never changes; you will get a different atomic mass, so an isotope is the atom with a different atomic mass. You write an isotope atom with the elements symbol and to the left of it you script (In the top left corner really small like an exponent) the new atomic mass. So in this case B would now be 12B
This atom is a of helium -4?
The atom is an isotope of helium called helium-4. It contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons in its nucleus, giving it a total atomic mass of 4 atomic mass units.
The mass of an atom compared to the mass of a carbon-12 atom is called the?
Isotope.
Which atom has an average mass not equal to its common isotope?
Hydrogen atom has an average mass not equal to its common isotope. The most common isotope of hydrogen, hydrogen-1, does not have a neutron in its nucleus, while the average mass of a hydrogen atom accounts for the other isotopes of hydrogen which do contain neutrons.
If a hydrogen atom has a mass of 3 is it an isotope?
No, a hydrogen atom with a mass of 3 is not an isotope of hydrogen. Hydrogen isotopes include protium (mass 1), deuterium (mass 2), and tritium (mass 3).
If the number of neutrons in an atom changes what is formed?
isotope
What is used to find the mass of an atom?
The mass of an atom is obtained dividing the atomic weight of an isotope by the Avogadro number.
Is the sum of the numbers of protons and the number neutrons in an atom is the mass number?
It is the mass number for that particular form of the atom - that particular isotope. An element can exist as more than one isotope and the atom's mass number is the (weighted) average of the mass numbers of all its isotopes.
How does the atomic number relate to the number of protons in an atom?
Atomic Mass (of an isotope) - number of protons (of an isotope) = number of neutrons (of an isotope)
Adding the number of protons and the number of neutrons found in the nucleus of an atom yields the for isotope?
Adding the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom gives the mass number of the isotope.

How much does a technetium atom weigh?
The mass an atom of technetium isotope 98 is 16,27.10e-23 g.
How do you determine the mass of atom using mass spectrometer?
Actually in mass spectrometer the isotopes of an element are separated by applying magnetic field.Each isotope is then compared with carbon-12 to get the atomic mass of that isotope.
How is an isotope different from its original atom?
