no, but they determine if it is an isotope or not
They're called nucleons. The two types of nucleons are protons and neutrons. Protons are positively charged nucleons and determine, in an atom, what element that atom is. Neutrons have no charge and just supposedly add mass to an atom.
The number of neutrons in an atom can affect the atomic mass of an atom.
The number of neutrons in one atom can vary depending on the element. Neutrons are one of the three main subatomic particles found in an atom, along with protons and electrons. The number of neutrons in an atom is calculated by subtracting the number of protons (atomic number) from the atomic mass of the atom.

Neutrons are subatomic particles found in the nucleus of an atom. They contribute to the overall mass of the atom but do not affect its chemical properties. The number of neutrons in an atom can vary, leading to different isotopes of the same element.
Mass of an atom is determined by the no. of protons+ no. of neutrons in the atom.

atomic number
The number of neutrons in an atom determines the isotope of the element. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but differing numbers of neutrons. This affects the stability and nuclear properties of the atom.

the atomic mass
The characteristic of an atom that is not used to determine the number of neutrons is its atomic number. The atomic number indicates the number of protons in an atom, while the number of neutrons is derived from the difference between the atomic mass (which is the total number of protons and neutrons) and the atomic number. Therefore, only the atomic mass and the atomic number are needed to calculate the number of neutrons.
Protons, neutrons and electrons
The mass number of an atom is determined by counting the total number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus. Electrons, which are much lighter than protons and neutrons, are not included in the mass number calculation.
there are 24 and no it isn't too high
protons plus neutrons
Protons: 5 Neutrons: 7 Electrons: 5
