【 】How Many Neutrons Does Nitrogen Have?||Number of Neutrons in Nitrogen

Answer:

Nitrogen has seven neutrons for this isotope.

Explanation:

Hello, chemistry lover! today we are going to find out  how many neutrons nitrogen have in just 3 steps.





To find out the number of neutrons  for nitrogen,we have to have knowledge about atomic number,atomic mass,mass number of nitrogen.



                    Step-1:



●The atomic number of nitrogen is the number of protons in nitrogen's nucleus.



●The atomic mass of nitrogen is the average number of  protons plus neutrons of all the isotopes of nitrogen.


●The Masss number of nitrogen is the number of protons plus neutrons of a specific isotope of nitrogen.

                    Step-2:


We need to convert atomic mass of nitrogen to mass number of  nitrogen by rounding if necessary (In case of fraction) .



How Many Neutrons Does Nitrogen Have?




From periodic table,



  ●Atomic number of nitrogen  is 7(Seven).


●Atomic mass of  nitrogen is 14.01


●To find out mass number,we need to round 14.01 to a whole number.So,by rounding,we are getting mass number  of nitrogen.The mass number of nitrogen is 14.





                    Step-3:


How Many Neutrons Does nitrogen Have?

By the difference between mass number and atomic number of nitrogen,we get the number of neutrons in nitrogen.


●Number of neutrons=14-7=7
Therefore,the number of neutrons in nitrogen is 7  here for this isotope.

● Number of electrons in nitrogen is 7.Remember that number of electron equals to proton in a neutral atom.

●Number of protons in nitrogen is 7.
