Question : 3
Total: 67
How many neutrons and protons are there in the following nuclei?
C ,
O ,
M g ,
F e ,
S r
Solution:
where, e = number of electrons, p = number of protons, Z = atomic number
Here, e = 6 and A = 13 [Since A = Mass number]
p = 6
n = A – p = 13 – 6 ⇒ n = 7 [Since A = p + n]
Number of protons = 6 and number of neutrons = 7.
n = A – p = 16 – 8 ⇒ n = 8
Number of neutrons = 8 and number of protons = 8.
n = A – p = 24 – 12 ⇒ n = 12
Number of neutrons = 12 and number of protons = 12.
n = A – p = 56 – 26 = 30
Number of neutrons = 30 and number of protons = 26.
n = A – p = 88 – 38 ⇒ n = 50
Number of neutrons = 50 and number of protons = 38.
