The mass number is the combined number of protons and neutrons in a nucleus, so it's protons and neutrons, and it's symbolized by A. So A is the mass number, which is equal to the …

Together, the number of protons and the number of neutrons determine an element’s mass number: mass number = protons + neutrons. If you want to calculate how many neutrons an …

An atom's mass number (symbol: "A") is used to determine the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. I.e., Protons + neutrons = mass number With an atom's …

Consider the statement, "The nucleus of an atom contains half its mass." Is the statement above true or false?

Consider an atom of Sodium (Na) . It has a mass number of 23 and an atomic number of 11 . How many electrons, protons and neutrons does it have?

In this exercise, we will solve questions on finding out atomic number, mass number and isotope composition.

Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons. Because they contain different numbers of neutrons, isotopes have different atomic masses. The average atomic …

Often, you'll also see another number listed at the bottom of an elements box, which has to do with atomic mass. We'll cover details about this and another video.

An isotope's mass number is closely related to its atomic mass, which is the mass of the isotope expressed in units of u . Since the mass of a neutron and the mass of a proton are both very …
