Question

how many neutrons are in the nucleus of an atom that has an atomic mass of 59 and an atomic number of 28?name the element also​

Answer 1

31 neutrons

In the nickel nucleus represented above, the atomic number 28 indicates that the nucleus contains 28 protons, and therefore, it must contain 31 neutrons in order to have a mass number of 59. The uranium nucleus has 92 protons, as all uranium nuclei do; and this particular uranium nucleus has 146 neutrons.

Answer 2

Answer:

Given:

Atomic mass = 59

Atomic number = 28

Neutron = Atomic mass - Atomic number

= 59 - 28

= 31

Name of element = Nickel
