Boron typically has 5 neutrons, as the mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus. In this case, with a mass number of 10, and Boron having 5 protons (atomic number 5), the number of neutrons is 5 (10 - 5 = 5).
A neutral atom of neon with atomic number 10 has 10 protons and 10 electrons. The mass number of 22 indicates the total number of protons and neutrons combined. Since the atomic number is 10, the number of neutrons is 22 - 10 = 12.
The mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons, so it would be 9 (protons) + 10 (neutrons) = 19. The atomic number corresponds to the number of protons, which is 9 in this case.
The mass number of ammonia is 17. This is calculated by adding the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus, which for ammonia (NH3) is 7 protons and 10 neutrons.
This atom would have 10 protons, 10 electrons, and 14 neutrons. The atomic number (10) represents the number of protons, the mass number (24) is the sum of protons and neutrons, and since atoms are electrically neutral, it would have the same number of electrons as protons.
To find the number of protons, you need to subtract the number of neutrons from the mass number. In this case, the atom has a mass number of 19 and 10 neutrons, which means the number of protons is 19 - 10 = 9 protons.
The mass number of this atom is 23, the sum of the number of protons and neutrons.
sodium has more protons and neutrons. electrons have practically no mass, valence electrons are just outer orbital electrons. sodium has 11 protons, 11 electrons, and 12 neutrons. Mass is 23. neon has 10 protons, 10 electrons, and 10 neutrons. Mass is just 20. The neon atom has 10 protons and 10 neutrons for a mass number of 20. The sodium atom has 11 protons and 12 neutrons for a mass number of 23. The number of valence electrons has no bearing on mass number or atomic weight.
Boron typically has 5 neutrons, as the mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus. In this case, with a mass number of 10, and Boron having 5 protons (atomic number 5), the number of neutrons is 5 (10 - 5 = 5).
The mass number of an atom, also known as the atomic mass number, is the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. In this case, an atom with 6 protons and 10 neutrons would have a mass number of 16.
A neutral atom of neon with atomic number 10 has 10 protons and 10 electrons. The mass number of 22 indicates the total number of protons and neutrons combined. Since the atomic number is 10, the number of neutrons is 22 - 10 = 12.
The atomic mass of the atom would be 25 atomic mass units (15 protons + 10 neutrons).
The mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons, so it would be 9 (protons) + 10 (neutrons) = 19. The atomic number corresponds to the number of protons, which is 9 in this case.
The symbol for the isotope would be B and the atomic number would be 5, as the mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus, so in this case: 5 protons + 10 neutrons = mass number 15.
The mass number of ammonia is 17. This is calculated by adding the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus, which for ammonia (NH3) is 7 protons and 10 neutrons.
8. Mass number is the number of neutrons plus the number of protons. The number of protons gives the atomic number.
The mass number is determined by the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in an atom. In this case, with an atomic number of 10 (which represents the number of protons), adding the 11 neutrons to it results in a mass number of 21.
