✪ Answer : 18 Neutrons

✪ Step-by-step explanation :

To find out the answer, one must know what is atomic number and atomic mass actually.

➣ Atomic number :- The total number of protons/electrons present in an atom.

➣ Atomic mass :- The total sum of number of protons and neutrons.

➣ Atomic mass = No. of protons + no. of neutron

34 = 16 + No. of neutron

34 - 16 = Number of neutron

18 = Number of neutron
