europium's atomic number is 63, it's mass (in amu's [Atomic Mass units]) is 152, rounded. the atomic number = the number of protons, so europium has 63 protons.

the number of protons = the number of electrons, so there are 63 electrons in a europium atom.

the mass= protons + neutrons, therefore neutrons = mass - protons.

this would be 152 - 63 = 89

there are 89 neutrons in a europium atom.

p+: 63

n: 89

e-: 63

hope i helped! ^.^

What is the mass number of europium?

Mass number is the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. And we might consider that the mass number of europium is 153 and call it good. Europium has an atomic number of 63, and there is only one stable isotope of it - europium-153. This isotope has the 63 protons and 90 neutrons. But there are other isotopes of europium, and their mass numbers range from 130 through 167 because europium has isotopes with neutron counts from 47 through 104.

How many neutrons are present in an atom that has an atomic number of 62 and a mass number of 151?

The atomic number (Z) is 62, indicating 62 protons in the nucleus. The mass number (A) is 151, which is the sum of protons and neutrons. Therefore, the number of neutrons present would be 151 (mass number) - 62 (protons) = 89 neutrons.


How many protons does europium-151 have?

What is europium used for?

Because Europium is fairly difficult to obtain it has few practical uses. Europium is unique in the fact that it can absorb more neutrons per atom then any other element. Thus making Europium and its isotopes very valuable in control rods of nuclear reactors. Like many other transition metals Europium is used in producing certain alloys, including striker and lighter flints. It's also been used in the creation of infrared absorbing automotive glass. Europium's compound, Europium Oxide, is often used as a phosphor activator. Europium's other two roles are also involved with phosphors. Europium is used in the production of phosphors for the creation of small lasers. But perhaps what Europium is known best for is the production of the red phosphors that are found in all color television screens.
