Descriptio







To find out the number of neutrons  for  niobium(Nb) ,we have to have knowledge about atomic number,atomic mass,mass number of  niobium(Nb)
.Click picture to see clearly.



                    Step-1:



●The atomic number of 
 niobium(Nb)  is the number of protons in niobium(Nb)'s nucleus.



●The atomic mass of 
 niobium(Nb)   is the average number of  protons plus neutrons of all the isotopes of  niobium(Nb)   .


●The masss number of 
 niobium(Nb)  is the number of protons plus neutrons of a specific isotope of  niobium(Nb)   .

                    Step-2:

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





From periodic table,


  ●Atomic number of 
 niobium(Nb) is 41.

●Atomic mass of  
niobium(Nb) is 92.91

●To find out mass number,we need to round 
92.91 to a whole number.


So,by rounding,we are getting mass number of  niobium(Nb)
.The mass n umber of niobium(Nb) is 93.



                    Step-3:

How Many Neutrons Does niobium(Nb) Have?

By the difference between mass number and atomic number of 
niobium(Nb),we get the number of neutrons in niobium(Nb).


●Number of neutrons=93-41=52

In another way,

●Mass number=Protons +Neutrons

Or,93 =41+Neutrons

Or,93-41=Neutrons

Therefore,
Neutrons=52





Therefore,the number of neutrons in niobium(Nb) is 52 here for this isotope.Remember that neutrons are present in the nucleous of niobium(Nb)and it's charge is zero.

●Number of protons in 
niobium(Nb) is 41.Protons are present in the nucleus of niobium(Nb) .



● Number of electrons in 
niobium(Nb)  is 41.Remember that number of electron equals to proton in a neutral atom.Eletrons are present outside of nucleus of niobium(Nb)  .
