16
NO, lets take an example.. 24 is divided by 2 and 8 both.. but not by 16..
The smallest whole number divisible by both 8 and 12 is 24.
16 - 8 = 8
8, 4, 12, 16, etc.
The atomic number refers to the number of protons in an element. The mass number can be used to indicate the number of neutrons because both protons and neutrons have a mass of about 1. An oxygen atom has 8 protons and 8 neutrons.
The LCD of 16 and 8 is 16, because 8 and 16 are both factors of 16.
There are 8 neutrons in an oxygen-16 atom. Oxygen has an atomic number of 8 and with an atomic mass of 16, it is simple to calculate the number of neutrons by subtracting the atomic number (8) from the atomic mass (16). The 16 - 8 = 8.
An oxygen-16 atom has 8 protons, 8 neutrons, and 8 electrons. This is because the atomic number of oxygen is 8, which defines the number of protons and electrons, and the atomic mass is 16, which includes both protons and neutrons.
-18
It is 128/16 = 8
oxygen has atomic number 8. It means that there are 8 protons (positively charged) adn 8 electrons (negatively charged). Since the number of positive charges and negative charges is equal, they both nullify each other and atom become electrically stable. The number of neutrons don't matter as they are neutral in charge.
