The atomic number of an isotope is the number of protons it contains, whereas the mass number is the total mass of the nucleus, which is the combined number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. To find the number of neutrons, you must therefore subtract the atomic number of the isotope from the mass number of the isotope. 
<span>In the above example, the atomic number is 8 and the mass number is 18. This isotope is known as O18. The number of neutrons in the isotope is: Mass number - Atomic number = Number of neutrons

Who is Taylor swift in real life rude mean nice help
Iteru [2.4K]
When Taylor swift was receiving her music award and Kanye West interrupted her right before she made her speech, she didn't attack him, push or yell at him. Taylor didn't make a scene or react. Most people would have. I think this tells us about her character. It appears that she is kind, not impulsive and overall a classy lady. Even afterwards, she didn't bad mouth or go on a social media to blast against Kanye on the Internet. This demonstrates that Taylor is strong and has thick skin.
