q determine the number of neutronsisotopes of an


Q. Determine the Number of neutrons?

Isotopes of an element can as well be specified by writing the mass number of the isotope following a hyphen after the name of the element. For instance hydrogen's isotopes are able to be written as hydrogen-1 and hydrogen-2 or H-1 and H-2 respectively.

Evoke that the number of protons in an atom's nucleus is its atomic number. Alternative atomic number for the number of protons gives the following relationship.

Number of neutrons   =  mass number  +   atomic number

You are able to use this relationship to determine any one of the variables if you know the other two.
