Question

the atomic number of an element is 12 and the mass number 16 . calculate the electron, proton, and neutron for the same​

Answer 1

Answer:

Electron = 12

Proton = 12

Neutron = 4

Explanation:

For an element:

No. of electrons = Atomic number

                           = 12

No. of proton = atomic number

                      = 12

No. of neutron is atomic number - mass number

No. of neutron = 16 - 12

                        = 4

Answer 2

Given :-

Atomic number = 12

mass number 16

Have to find :-

Electron

Proton

Neutron

Solution :-

We know that

Atomic number = Electron = Proton

Electron = 6

Proton = 6

Neutron = Atomic number - mass element

Neutron = 16 - 12

Neutron = 4
