That's two integers, not one.
protons plus neutrons
If a neutral atom gains electrons it is called what?
Magnesium has 12 protons and electrons and 12, 13 or 14 neutrons, depending on the isotope.
4 because the mass number equals protons plus neutrons. Which is 4.
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.
protons plus neutrons
2 protons and 2 neutrons. An alpha particle is the same as a helium nucleus.
The Atomic Mass is equal to the number of protons plus neutrons. So if you know the atomic number then you can find out the number of neutrons Atomic # is the amount of Protons or Electrons Atomic Mass- Number of protons plus neutrons Atomic Mass-Atomic Number = Amount of neutrons
yeah. it is
protons plus neutrons
If the ion has a +1 charge and has 107 electrons, that means that it originally had 108 electrons, and therefore has 108 protons. The mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons, 108 + 159, and therefore is equal to 267.
No, The atomic mass is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons (the mass of the atom's nucleus). Note that the atomic mass is therefore different in cases where there are different isotopes of the element (because the nucleus will have a different number of neutrons for each isotope). The atomic number is the number of protons (or electrons in the atom's neutral state).
If a neutral atom gains electrons it is called what?
The 14 in 14C represents the total number of protons and neutrons in the carbon atom's nucleus. Carbon-14 (14C) is a radioactive isotope with 6 protons and 8 neutrons.
the number of protons plus neutrons.
Magnesium has 12 protons and electrons and 12, 13 or 14 neutrons, depending on the isotope.
4 because the mass number equals protons plus neutrons. Which is 4.
