Oxygen has 8 protons, 8 neutrons, and 8 electrons. Protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus, while electrons orbit the nucleus in energy levels or shells. The number of protons determines the element's identity, while the number of neutrons can vary, creating different isotopes of the element.
The proton to neutron ratio of carbon-14 is 6:8, which simplifies to 3:4. This ratio indicates that carbon-14 has 3 protons and 4 neutrons in its nucleus.
I believe the Proton Number (being the number of protons in the centre/nucleus of the atom) is the most important number in an atom. Oxygen for example has 8 protons and 8 neutrons. if it had more/less neutrons it would still be oxygen (it would be an ISOTOPE of oxygen) but if it had more/less protons, it would be a differnet element entirely. Ordinarily, the number of protons in an atom matches the number of electrons spinning around the outside so as to keep it neutral. (a proton has a positive charge and a neutron has a negative charge) the relative atomic mass of an element is the proton number + the neutron number as electrons weigh so little their mass is not worth taking into account.
The charge-mass ratio of a proton is approximately 9.58 x 10^7 coulombs per kilogram (C/kg). This value is a fundamental property that describes the ratio of the charge of a proton to its mass. It is commonly used in particle physics experiments and calculations.
A proton does not contain any oxygen atoms or elements. A proton is a subatomic particle found in the atomic nucleus of an atom, and it is made up of three quarks. Oxygen is a chemical element with atomic number 8, and its nucleus contains 8 protons.
Yes, it is. It has a high neutron-to-proton ratio.
An element with 8 protons, 8 neutrons, and 8 electrons would have a mass of approximately 24 daltons (8 protons + 8 neutrons + 8 electrons). Each proton and neutron contributes about 1 dalton to the mass of the atom, while electrons have much less mass compared to protons and neutrons.

When a gold nucleus gains a proton, it becomes a mercury nucleus. This occurs through the process of beta-plus decay, where a proton transforms into a neutron, resulting in a change in atomic number from 79 (gold) to 80 (mercury).
8. with an atomic mass of 15.9994
Oxygen has 8 protons, 8 neutrons, and 8 electrons. Protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus, while electrons orbit the nucleus in energy levels or shells. The number of protons determines the element's identity, while the number of neutrons can vary, creating different isotopes of the element.
There is no atom or element that has one proton, one neutron and ten electrons. Duterium has one proton, one neutron and one electron (in a neutral atom). Tritium has one proton, two neutrons and one electron (in a neutral atom), but that is the closest. In any neutral atom the number of electrons will equal the number of protons in the nucleus of that atom. An atom with one proton in its nucleus and 10 electrons just isn't possible.

Proton number is equal to atomic number. For oxygen both numbers are 8.
