What is the atomic mass number of an atom of sodium that contains 12 neutrons?
The atomic mass number of an atom is the sum of its protons and neutrons. Sodium typically has 11 protons, so if the atom has 12 neutrons, the atomic mass number would be 23 (11 protons + 12 neutrons).
If an atoms contains 11 protons and 12 neutrons its atomic number is?
The atomic number is determined by the number of Protons. So in this case it would be 11 (Sodium). The mass number is the total of protons and neutrons, so in this case 23. So this isotope of sodium would be 23Na.
What is the superscript and subscript of the nuclide of hafnium that contains 107 neutrons?
The superscript is the atomic mass number, which is the sum of protons and neutrons. The subscript is the atomic number, which is the number of protons. For a hafnium nuclide with 107 neutrons, the superscript would be 180 (107 neutrons + 73 protons) and the subscript would be 73.
How would you explain how to determine the number of neutrons and atom contains if you know its mass and its atomic number?
SHow your work
To find the number of neutrons in an atom you would subtract what?
You would subtract the atomic number from the mass number.
Phosphorus has an atomic mass of 31 and an atomic number of 15 the number of neutrons must be?
Mass number = no. of protons + neutrons Atomic number = no. of protonsThus (mass number - atomic number) gives you no. of neutrons.Therefore for phosphorus, the number of neutrons would be 16.
Subtracting the Atomic number from the atomic mass?
To find the number of neutrons in an atom, you would subtract the atomic number (number of protons) from the atomic mass (sum of protons and neutrons). The difference between the atomic mass and the atomic number gives you the number of neutrons in the atom.
How many neutrons are in an isotope of lithium if it has an atomic mass of ten?
An isotope of lithium with an atomic mass of ten would have an atomic number of 3, meaning it has 3 protons. To find the number of neutrons, subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass: 10 (atomic mass) - 3 (atomic number) = 7 neutrons. Therefore, an isotope of lithium with an atomic mass of ten would have 7 neutrons.
What element has atomic mass of 16 and 8 neutrons?
If you had looked in the periodic table, you would have seen that the element Oxygen has an atomic mass of 16 (or more precisely 15.9994) and if you were to take that atomic mass and subtract the atomic number from it (i.e. 8) you would get a difference of 8 which is the number of neutrons it contains. In short, oxygen is that element.
Sn isotope of oxygen has an atomic number of 8 and an atomic weight of 18. how many neutrons does it have?
The atomic number of an isotope is the number of protons it contains, whereas the mass number is the total mass of the nucleus, which is the combined number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. To find the number of neutrons, you must therefore subtract the atomic number of the isotope from the mass number of the isotope.In the above example, the atomic number is 8 and the mass number is 18. This isotope is known as O18. The number of neutrons in the isotope is: Mass number - Atomic number = Number of neutrons18 - 8 = 10
Boron has an atomic mass of 11 and an atomic number of 5 so the number of neutrons must be?
The number of neutrons in an atom is calculated by subtracting the atomic number from the atomic mass. In this case, for boron with an atomic mass of 11 and atomic number of 5, the number of neutrons would be 6.
How do you calculate the number of neutrons in cobalt?
The number of neutrons in any element is equal to mass number - atomic number. So,number of neutrons in cobalt is = 58 - 27 = 32. therefore, number of neutrons in cobalt is 32.
