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 LCD of 16 and 8 is 16, because 8 and 16 are both factors of 16.
The number of neutrons in an atom can be calculated by subtracting the atomic number from the atomic mass. In this case, an atomic mass of 16 and atomic number of 8 for oxygen means there are 8 neutrons (16 - 8 = 8).
The atomic number of oxygen is 8, which means that there are 8 protons in the nucleus of an oxygen atom. Mass number = protons + neutrons, therefore neutrons = mass number - protons = 16 - 8 = 8 neutrons.
-18
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.
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.
