Carbon 14 has 8 neutrons. This is because carbon 14 has 6 protons, which is the atomic number of carbon, and the number of neutrons can be calculated by subtracting the atomic number from the atomic mass number, which is 14 in this case.
No. They have different masses, but the same atomic number. Carbon-12 has a mass number of 12 and atomic number of 6, and carbon-14 has a mass number of 14 and atomic number of 6. The difference in mass number is due to different numbers of neutrons. Carbon-12 atoms have 6 neutrons and carbon-14 atoms have 8 neutrons.
No
In carbon-14, the number 14 refers to the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of the carbon atom. Carbon-14 is an isotope of carbon that contains 6 protons and 8 neutrons, resulting in a total atomic mass number of 14.
The numbers in uranium-238 and carbon-14 refer to the atomic mass of the isotopes. The number '238' indicates that uranium-238 has a total of 238 protons and neutrons in its nucleus, while the number '14' indicates that carbon-14 has a total of 14 protons and neutrons.
The atomic number of carbon is 6. Carbon-14 is an isotope of carbon with 6 protons and 8 neutrons.
Carbon 14 has 8 neutrons. This is because carbon 14 has 6 protons, which is the atomic number of carbon, and the number of neutrons can be calculated by subtracting the atomic number from the atomic mass number, which is 14 in this case.
No. They have different masses, but the same atomic number. Carbon-12 has a mass number of 12 and atomic number of 6, and carbon-14 has a mass number of 14 and atomic number of 6. The difference in mass number is due to different numbers of neutrons. Carbon-12 atoms have 6 neutrons and carbon-14 atoms have 8 neutrons.
The isotope number and the atomic number can be used to calculate the number of neutrons. Consider carbon-14. The atomic number for carbon is 6 (i.e., the number of protons is 6). The isotope number of carbon-14 (i.e., 14 = protons + neutrons). Subtract the atomic number from the isotope number calculate the number of neutrons (8 for carbon-14).
Carbon is a non metal element. Atomic number of it is 6.
Silicon is the 2nd member of carbon family its Atomic no is 14.
No
Note that since all carbon isotopes have an atomic number of 6, it is not necessary to state the atomic number; the fact that it is carbon means that it has the atomic number 6. So the isotope with a mass number of 14 is called carbon 14. As a symbol, it is C with a superscript 14 (which I am not able to type).
The atomic number of carbon is 6, which means it has 6 protons. Carbon-14 is an isotope of carbon, so it also has 6 protons. The difference between isotopes lies in the number of neutrons, and carbon-14 has 8 neutrons, making it a radioactive isotope used in carbon dating.
Carbon's got an atomic number of 6. That means it has six protons. Carbon-14 means the atomic mass is 14. Atomic mass is Neutrons+Protons. 14-6=8
A carbon atom with a mass number of 14 and atomic number of 6 will have 8 neutrons, calculated by subtracting the atomic number from the mass number. The mass number represents the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom, and the atomic number indicates the number of protons, which in this case would be 6 for carbon.
The isotope carbon 14: Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons = 6 Atomic mass: 14,003241
