What do you find when you subtract the proton number from the nucleon number?
In chemistry and physics, a nucleon is one of the two particles that make up the atomic nucleus. Protons are one of the nucleons, Neutrons are the other nucleon.Thus by subtracting the number of Protons in the nucleus (the Proton number) from the total number of nucleons (the nucleon number) you will get the total number of Neutrons (the neutron number) in the atoms nucleus.
At what mass number does the binding energy per nucleon peak?
The binding energy per nucleon peaks at a mass number of around 56.
What is the Significance of binding energy per nucleon vary with mass number?
The binding energy per nucleon varies with mass number because it represents the average energy required to separate a nucleus into its individual nucleons. For lighter nuclei, the binding energy per nucleon increases as the nucleus becomes more stable. As nuclei become larger (higher mass number), the binding energy per nucleon decreases due to the diminishing strength of the nuclear force relative to the electrostatic repulsion between protons.
When does a nucleon have more mass?
A nucleon has more mass when it is not bound to the nucleus of an atom. When the nucleon is bound to other nucleons the binding energy that keeps them together comes from the mass of the nucleon. Therefore the mass of a single nucleon will be smaller in an atom than on it's own.
What is the order of binding energy per nucleon nucleus?
The order of binding energy per nucleon for nuclei generally follows the trend that larger nuclei have higher binding energy per nucleon. This means that as you move to heavier nuclei (with more protons and neutrons), their binding energy per nucleon tends to increase. This trend is due to the strong nuclear force that holds the nucleus together becoming more efficient as the nucleus grows in size.
Why do you think the nucleon number of chlorine is 35.5 which is not a whole number?
The nucleon number is not 35.5! Chlorine has isotopes with 35 or 37 nucleons but a fractional number is not possible.

In chemistry and physics, a nucleon is one of the two particles that make up the atomic nucleus. Protons are one of the nucleons, Neutrons are the other nucleon.Thus by subtracting the number of Protons in the nucleus (the Proton number) from the total number of nucleons (the nucleon number) you will get the total number of Neutrons (the neutron number) in the atoms nucleus.
Which numbers are added to give the nucleon number of an ion?
No need to add. Use the elemnts mass number, which is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons
At what mass number does the binding energy per nucleon peak?
The binding energy per nucleon peaks at a mass number of around 56.
What is the sum of the protons and neutrons in an atom equals to?
The nucleon number (or mass number).
What is the mass number minus the atomic number called?
Nucleon Number (total number of protons and neutrons)
The mass number of an atom is the?
The mass number also refers to the nucleon number. Usually the larger number among the two present in the periodic table, the nucleon number refers to the number of protons and neutrons present within an atomic nucleus of an element.
What the nucleon number of nitrogen?
The nucleon number of nitrogen is 14. This includes both protons and neutrons in the nucleus of the nitrogen atom. It is calculated by adding the number of protons (which is the atomic number) to the number of neutrons.
What do you call atoms of the same elements with different nucleon number?
isotopes
What is the term for any particle found in the nucleus?
nucleon
Why is proton number of an atom of an element different from the nucleon number of an atom of an element?
The difference between proton number (which is atomic number) and nucleon number, which is the number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus, is the number of neutrons in the nucleus of a given nuclide. Nucleons are the components of an atomic nucleus. We know that both protons and neutrons make up an atom's nucleus. So the number of nucleons, which is the number of protons and neutrons, minus the number of protons, will equal the number of neutrons in the atomic nucleus.

The binding energy per nucleon varies with mass number because it represents the average energy required to separate a nucleus into its individual nucleons.
