The answer is 3
Argon is a non metal element. Mass number of it is 40.
No, it cannot. A whole number is a quantity without units - a pure number. A mass of 1 pound is a whole number of pounds but it is 0.45359 kilograms: not a whole number, or 453.59 grams, again not a whole number.
Approximately, yes. But the mass number is an average of the masses of the isotopes of the element, weighted together according to their abundance. This averaging of different whole numbers results in the mass number not being a whole number.
570.0
Boron - B - Group IIIThe atomic number is 5.The mass number is 11.
It is 4.0026 : the atomic mass can be a fraction.
The answer is simple it's one/1
The nearest Whole number of atomic mass of potassium is 69
The sum of the number of protons and the number of nuetrons.
right..... im not sure about it but since the atomic mass of zinc is 65.39 amu then most probably it will be 65 amu rounded to the nearest whole number. hope that helped :D
The mass number of an element is the atomic mass rounded to the nearest whole number. For Example, if the atomic mass is 54.94 (Manganese [Mn]), then the mass number will be 55. You can use the mass number to calculate the amount of neutrons in an isotope.
Sulfur- Element Number 16 on the Periodic Table of Elements
Sometimes the atomic mass is listed as the average mass of the isotopes and contains a decimal. But since you can't have a fractional part of a proton or a neutron without creating a big mess, it is necessary to round to the nearest whole number. Subtracting the atomic number from the rounded atomic mass will give you the number of neutrons.
The atomic mass (rounded to the nearest whole number) is the number of nucleons - i.e. protons+neutrons. The atomic number is just the number of protons. So the difference between the two (mass minus number) tells you the number of neutrons.
18g/mol
Number of protons = atomic number Number of neutrons = Atomic Mass (rounded to the nearest whole number) minus the atomic number Number of electrons in a stable element = number of protons Number of electrons in an unstable element = atomic number minus the charge
Typically to find the number of neutrons, you first round the atomic mass to the nearest whole number. After that to you subtract the number of protons (which is the same as the atomic number) from the newly rounded atomic mass and the resulting number is the number of neutrons. lets use Carbon for example: Atomic mass: 12.01 Atomic mass rounded: 12.00 Number of Protons (same as atomic number): 6 (Rounded atomic mass - number of protons)=6 So Carbon has 6 neutrons. Hope that is easy enough to understand.
