The mass of an atom is the number of protons and neutrons in it (electrons are light enough to be ignored). To find the number of neutrons in the atom, subtract the number of protons from its mass (you can find its mass in a periodic table). The result is your answer.

<span>Mass Number = (Atomic Number) + (Number of Neutrons) so you solve for the Number of Neutrons and you get:
Number of Neutrons = (Mass number) - (Atomic Number) 

Mass Number equals protons plus neutrons, round atomic weight to nearest whole number
Atomic Number equals number of Protons</span>

An atom has 81 electrons, 84 neutrons, and 82 protons. What element is this atom?
posledela

Answer:

Lead

Explanation:

The subatomic particles within an atom can be used to know the atom or element given.

Of particular interest is the number of protons within the atom.

The periodic table is based on the atomic number of atoms. This atomic number is the number of protons within an atomic space.

So; If we know the number of protons within an atom, we can know the element.

The number of protons given is 82, the element is  therefore lead.

One difference between molecular formula and molecular weight.​
jek_recluse [69]

Answer: The formula mass (formula weight) of a molecule is the sum of the atomic weights of the atoms in its empirical formula. The molecular mass (molecular weight) of a molecule is its average mass as calculated by adding together the atomic weights of the atoms in the molecular formula.

Hope this helps.... Stay safe and have a great weekend!!!!! :D
