Questions and Answers

What is the formula to calculate the number of neutrons in an atom?

  • Number of neutrons = Mass number (A) - Atomic number (Z) (correct)
  • Number of neutrons = Atomic number (Z) + Mass number (A)
  • Number of neutrons = Atomic number (Z) × Mass number (A)
  • Number of neutrons = Mass number (A) × Atomic number (Z)

What is the definition of isotopes?

  • Atoms that have the same atomic number but different mass numbers (correct)
  • Atoms that have the same number of neutrons and electrons
  • Atoms that have the same number of protons and electrons
  • Atoms that have the same mass number but different atomic numbers
