A and B are isobars B has mass number 24 if atomic number of a is 11 then what is the number of neutrons present in it?
Answers
11,11,13
Given - Mass number of atom = 23
Atomic number of atom = 11
As, no. of electrons in an atom is equal to an atomic number of the element.
So, number of electrons = 11
Secondly , number of protons are equal to number of electrons.
so, number of protons = 11
And number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number = 24−11 = 13
so, number of neutrons = 13
So , the atom contains 11 protons, 11 electrons, 13 neutrons.
Answer:
Atomic Number of A = 11
Mass number of A = 24
therefore total number of neutrons in A = 24-11=13
element: sodium
Mass number of B = 24
atomic number of B = 12
element = magnesium, as magnesium and sodium are the only 2 elements having mass number 24.
therefore, the total number of neutrons in B = 24-12=12
hope this helps
