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

How is humity related to air pressure
Lemur [1.5K]
Technically there is no direct connection between air pressure and humidity. Humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air or air parcel. Air pressure is its weight of the air in a column, the true connection is in the temperature.
