Scientists can calculate the number of neutrons by subtracting the atomic number from the atomic mass. The atomic number of an element is the number of protons which can be found in the nucleus of the element's atoms. The atomic mass of an element is the product of protons plus neutrons. The number of neutrons is not always equal to the number of protons. By subtracting the atomic number from the atomic mass, the difference will be how many neutrons are in the element's nucleus.

Your question has been heard loud and clear.

Both scientific laws and scientific theories are not based on hypothesis.

Because , scientific laws are proven and so they are real not hypothetical.

Whereas scientifc theories can be hypothetical.

Thank you

How do chemical and nuclear reactions differ in(c) Effect on rate of higher reactant concentration?
DochEvi [55]

Nuclear reactions involve a change in an atom's nucleus, usually producing a different element. Chemical reactions, on the other hand, involve only a rearrangement of electrons and do not involve changes in the nuclei.

<h3>What affects the rate of nuclear reactions?</h3>

Reactant concentration, the physical state of the reactants, and surface area, temperature, and the presence of a catalyst are the four main factors that affect reaction rate.

<h3>What is the main difference between chemical reactions and nuclear reactions?</h3>

Chemical reaction normally occurs outside the nucleus. Nuclear reaction happens only inside the nucleus. When chemical reactions occur elements hold their identity and the nuclei of atoms also remains unchanged. During nuclear reactions, the nuclei of atoms changes completely and new elements are formed.
