Atomic mass equals the number of what?
The atomic mass NUMBER equals the number of protons and neutrons in an atom. DO NOT confuse this with the mass of an atom.
What is the relationship btw atomic mass and atomic mass number?
We can find atomic mass and mass number in chemical elements. Atomic mass is about weight of the atom. Mass number is about total of neutrons and protons.
Why is the atomic mass number not a whole number?
We can find Atomic Mass and mass number in chemical elements. Atomic mass is about weight of the atom. Mass number is about total of neutrons and protons.
What is the atomic mass number of iodine?
The atomic mass number of iodine is 17.8923
What is the atomic no and atomic mass of graphite?
Atomic number 6, atomic mass 12.
Mass number - atomic number equals?
Mass number minus the atomic number equals the number of neutrons. Mass number is the number of particles in an atom that have significant mass. Electrons are assigned a value of 0 since the mass is so much smaller than protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are similar in mass and are assigned mass number of 1. The formula for calculating atomic mass atomic mass = # protons + # neutrons.
What is hydrogen's number of neutrons equals mass number - atomic number equals?
The number of neutrons in an atom can be calculated by subtracting the atomic number (number of protons) from the mass number. For hydrogen, the atomic number is 1 and the mass number is also 1. Therefore, the number of neutrons in hydrogen is 1 (mass number - atomic number = 1 - 1 = 0 neutrons).
Atomic mass equals the number of what?
The atomic mass NUMBER equals the number of protons and neutrons in an atom. DO NOT confuse this with the mass of an atom.
What is the atomic mass of a atom that has 6 neutron 6 protons and 6 electron?
The atomic mass of an atom is approximately equal to the sum of its protons and neutrons. Since the atom in question has 6 protons and 6 neutrons, the atomic mass would be 12 atomic mass units (amu).
The sum of the protons and neutrons in an atom equals the .?
atomic number
When you subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass it will give you the number of what?
the protrons, neutrons and electrons in a atom
What equals atomic mass minus protons?
Roughly, the number of neutrons. Note that the atomic mass is only approximately equal to the number of protons plus the number of neutrons - there is a relatively small discrepancy, due to the binding energy.
Isotope symbol for Z equals 28 A equals 64?
The isotope symbol for the element with atomic number Z=28 and mass number A=64 is ^64Ni.
How do the mass number and the atomic number of an element different?
Atomic number equals the number of protons, the (atomic) mass number equals the sum of (the number of) protons and neutrons of the same element.The answer is: they're differing in the number of neutrons(Mathematically: Where A = p and M = p + n, the difference in A and M is n)
Which of the following equals one atomic mass number?
Atomic number: number of protons or electrons in a neutral atomMass number: sum of protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleusAtomic mass number is not a very correct expression.
How do the mass numbers and the atomic numbers of an element differ?
Atomic number equals the number of protons, the (atomic) mass number equals the sum of (the number of) protons and neutrons of the same element.The answer is: they're differing in the number of neutrons(Mathematically: Where A = p and M = p + n, the difference in A and M is n)
The combined number of protons and neutrons?
The combined number of protons and neutrons is known as the mass number of an atom. It can be used to calculate the atomic mass by adding the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.
