If the atomic number of an element is 6 and its mass number is 20, how many neutrons are in the atom's nucleus?

Respuesta :

TSO
Remember

Mass number - atomic number = number of neutrons
Remember that mass number is the sum of both protons and neutrons
The atomic number tells us how many protons there are

20 - 6 = 14 neutrons

There are 14 neutrons in the nucleus.
