Element X has two isotopes. X-15 has 7 protons and 8 neutrons. What is the atomic number and mass number of the second isotope, which has 10 neutrons in its nucleus?
The most important thing to keep in mind here is that are atoms that have the same number of protons inside their nuclei. In other words, an isotope...

$"Atom W has 9 protons and 9 neutrons, Atom X has 8 protons and 9"$ $"neutrons. Atom Y has 9 protons, and 9 neutrons. Atom Z has 10 protons"$
$"and 10 neutrons."$
What are the isotopes?
And $Z$ defines the identity of the element: $Z=1,H;Z=2,He;..........Z=6,C;........Z=37, Ru...........$ You don't have to remember these numbers, because a Periodic Table will be supplied to you in every test of...

What is the average atomic mass of an element if, out of 100 atoms, 5 have a mass of 176 amu, 19 have a mass of 177 amu, 27 have a mass of 178 amu, 14 have a mass of 179 amu, and 35 have a mass of 180 amu?
The $"Average Atomic Mass"$ of an element is defined as "the weighted average mass of all naturally-occurring (occasionally radioactive) of the element." (and hence the name "average") [1] Dividing the...

The atomic mass of element A is 63.6 atomic mass units. The only naturally occurring isotopes of element A are A-63 and A-65. What is the percent abundance in a naturally occurring sample of element A closest to?
The average isotopic mass is the weighted average of the mass of the individual . Because the quoted average, $63.6$ $"amu"$, is closer to $""^63A$ than $""^65A$, the $""^63A$...

A fictitious element that has two isotopes has an average atomic mass of 117.3. If 65.43% of the atoms of the element have an atomic mass of 119.8, what is the atomic mass of the other isotope?
The weighted average of the is equal to $117.3*"amu"$. And thus.........with units of $"amu"$ $[65.43%xx119.8+34.57%xxchi] =117.3$ Where $chi-="mass of the other isotope"$.... And so we solve for $chi$.... $chi=(117.3-0.6543xx119.8)/(0.3457)=112.6*"amu"$

All the atoms of a particle element have an equal number of protons and neutrons (Z=N). Which one is true?
A) The atomic weight must be a whole number.
B) The mass number must be exactly twice the atomic number for each atom.
The answer is B) The must be exactly twice the for each atom. The number of protons is the atomic number of an element. The mass number is the sum...

The element calcium has the atomic number of 20 and the mass number of 40, how many neutrons does it have?
There are few simple rules to follow. (1) The is equal to the number of protons. $Z$ = number of protons (2) In neutrally charged , the number of electrons...

Sally is making a model of a Mg atom with an atomic mass number of 24. She has balls for the protons, neutrons, and electrons. She has added 6 neutrons to her model. How many more neutrons does she need to add to complete her neutral atom of magnesium?
$Z$, $"the atomic number"$ of magnesium is 12. This means that there are 12 positively charged nuclear particles. This defines the particle as a magnesium atom. To represent the $""^24Mg$...
