How Many Neutrons Does Vanadium Have?


Answer:

Vanadium has 28 neutrons for this isotope.


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








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



                    Step-1:



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



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


●The masss number of 
vanadium is the number of protons plus neutrons of a specific isotope of vanadium.

Step-2:

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









From periodic table,



  ●Atomic number of 
vanadium  is 23 .


●Atomic mass of  
vanadium is 50.94


●To find out mass number,we need to round 
50.94 to a whole number.So,by rounding,we are getting mass number  of vanadium.The mass number of vanadium is 51.





                    Step-3:


How Many Neutrons Does vanadium Have?

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


●Number of neutrons=51-23=28


In another way,

●Mass number=Protons +Neutrons

Or,51 =23 +Neutrons

Or,51-23=Neutrons

Therefore,
Neutrons=28




Therefore,the number of neutrons in 
vanadium is 28 here for this isotope.Remember that neutrons are present in the nucleous of vanadium and it's charge is zero.

●Number of protons in 
vanadium is 23.Protons are present in the nucleus of vanadium.




● Number of electrons in 
vanadium is 23.Remember that number of electron equals to proton in a neutral atom.Eletrons are present outside of nucleus of vanadium.
