<span>Helium = 1
Carbon = 8
Nitrogen = 8
Strontium = 52
Tellurium = 71
If you look on a periodic table, on each element there is a number on
the top left. This represents the number of protons in an atom. Protons
have a mass of 1 (in relative to Carbon-13)
If we take nitrogen-15 for example; The number 15 tells you that the
isotope has a mass of 15. Now if you look on the periodic table,
Nitrogen has a proton number of 7. Only protons and neutrons have a
mass, electrons are considered to be negligable. Therefore the number of
neutrons Nitrogen-15 contains is 15 - 7 = 8 </span>
Answer:
Chemical symbol
This is used to identify an element without having to write the full name and as such is a designation for the element. It is used in chemical reactions and is usually either one or two letters. Some symbols are, Iron - Fe, Hydrogen - H and Oxygen - O.
Valency
This refers to the capacity of an element to combine with another to form a compound. It is measured by the number of electrons that an atom of an element gains, looses or shares when a chemical reaction involving it takes place.
